Text «Surfing» Surfing is popular all over the world. It is practiced on lakes and rivers, seas
and oceans — anywhere with good wind.
Some people think that it is a new kind of sport. But it is not. It was
first reported by the British explorer Captain Cook in 1778. It became popular
with the introduction of mass-produced, lightweight (легкий) boards made
of fiberglass in the 1960s.
The birthplace of surfing is Hawaii and today it’s home of the most famous
surfing competition. Huge waves crash along mile after mile of beautiful sand, and
every surfer dreams of experiencing surfing in Maui or Oahu.
The best time for surfing is when the waves are high. Serious surfers must be
brave, love adventures and have lots of energy. Once they’ve experienced the
excitement of a ride on the top of the waves, they never want to stop.
It takes time to learn to catch a wave at the right moment, stand up on your
board and stay there. But during a hot summer day, who minds learning?
