Surfing seems so fun but I haven't tried it before.
History of surfing
The riding of waves has likely existed since humans began swimming in the ocean. In this sense, bodysurfing is the oldest type of wave-catching. Standing up on what is now called a surfboard is a relatively recent innovation developed by the Polynesians.The influences for modern surfing can be directly traced to the surfers of pre-contact Hawaii.
Polynesian origins.
The art of surfing, known as "heʻe ʻana" ("heʻe" means "to surf", and "ʻana"
has seemed to take the greatest hold is Buddhism, particularly the Tibetan style. As I've learned so often during discourses, it all depends on one's karmic predisposition. Mine seems to be constantly investigating, although once I understood the four Noble Truths in conjunction with the Eightfold Path and actually experienced moments of no consciousness; slowly, my life was transformed. Before that, I had a deep feeling of hopelessness. These practices haven't been easy but pretty brutal to go through in many instances.
