Frankie Avalon
The sport of Surfing has been around since the 1700's. It is rumored to have started in Tahiti. Surfing was a big part of the Polynesian culture. Even the tribal chiefs participated and the best surfing spots were reserved for people of noble status within their community.
Hawaii also revered surfing and it was a big part of their rituals too. It was used during ceremonies asking the Gods for protection from the fierce oceans. Surfing became such a part of their lives that when the oceans were calm they would ask the Gods for rougher seas and waves so they could surf again.
Surfing came to the United States in 1907 to Huntington Beach California. This beach is still known as one of the best surfing spots on the continental United States. It did not reach the Eastern shore until about 1912 in the Virginia Beach area.
Surfing had a small following until the 1960's when all the surfing movies came out with Frankie Avalon. This made surfing cool again and people began to take more interest once again in the sport. Over the years and history of the sport interest seems to come and go but in coastal towns all over the world it is like a cult following.
Today surfing is not only popular in the Hawaiian Islands and Coastal California but you can find diehard surfing enthusiasts in Costa Rica and Australia too. There are magazines and stores dedicated to the sport of surfing as well. Most coastal hotels and resorts in surfing areas can also arrange surfing lessons for you, your friends, and your family.
Surfing can be dangerous so you need to know how to ride a surf board and what to do if you fall off. Waves can be fierce and can push you further out to sea or into rocks or sand. Knowing how to remain safe is essential when you are surfing.
George Pettit is a journalist and researcher. He is often writing about mountains, weather, sea and surfing magazine.
