I love surfing!  I surf every day!!!
That's cool! I'm interested in the culture of surfing, which seems to have its own language and fashion.
What is the surfing culture?  I just like to go out there and catch some waves!
While it's a water sport, it also has had an influence on all sorts of things: youth jargon, clothing, film, and music. The Beach Boys, for example.
That's true - definitely surfing music!  I do like my surf-fashion clothing in and out of the water.
Surf music
Surf music is a subgenre of rock music associated with surf culture, particularly as found in Southern California. It was especially popular from 1962 to 1964 in two major forms. The first is instrumental surf, distinguished by reverb-drenched electric guitars played to evoke the sound of crashing waves, largely pioneered by Dick Dale and the Del-Tones. The second is vocal surf, which took elements of the original surf sound and added vocal harmonies, a movement led by the Beach Boys.
