Surfing is a water sport where individuals ride on the face of moving waves using a surfboard. It typically takes place in oceans, seas, or large lakes, where waves are generated by wind or other natural forces. Surfers paddle out into the water, wait for suitable waves, and then use their skills to catch and ride them back to shore. The sport has a rich culture and history, particularly in places like Hawaii, where it originated. Surfing has evolved over the years, with various styles and techniques, and has become popular worldwide, attracting enthusiasts of all ages.
