I would love to learn to surf but I am terrified of sharks! Do you enjoy surfing?
I don't surf, but am definitely fascinated by it! What's wild is how *ancient* it is, you know? I mean it traces back to Hawaii *before* any of the outside world made contact with it.
Wow! I had no idea it dated back so far in history! Who were the first surfers?
It began with the ancient Polynesians, but definitely evolved!
When did surfing become so mainstream and popular?
Well, once it was "discovered" by someone on the first voyage of James Cook to Tahiti, it gained in awareness and popularity from there...
That is so cool! Where is considered the coolest place to surf in the world?
Oh my GOSH so many surfers would be debating this one. What's crazy is it's not just oceans that offer waves -- there are lakes and rivers that can be surfed!
