History of Surfing
The origin
Our surf lessons always include a theoretical part, where we go into the beginnings of surfing. The next lines are dedicated to the beginnings of this sport we love so much.
The origins of surfing makes it such a beautiful and unique sport because the first references of surfing go back to cave paintings in 12th century Polynesia illustrating ancient versions of surfing.
On the wall of the caves there are shown fishermen riding waves on wooden planks known as “Caballitos de totora”. In 1778 Captain James Cook, the British navigator and one of the greatest explorers of all time, saw surfers in Hawaii for the first time.
In these days surfboards were more than 5 meters long. Surfing was in Hawaii part of the religion and culture and was joyful avtivity. The destruction of these culture came with European missionaries.
Later in 1898 the annexation of Hawaii brings the lost tribal tradition of surfing to California. The father of modern American surfing was hawain swimmer and surfer Duke Kahanamoku and he brought in 1915 surfing to Australia. Today Australia is a surfing nation.
In the 1950s surfing became popular thanks to artists and musicians called “the free spirit of surfing” and later thank
s to media surfing became a massive presence in the society.
New technology and the invention of wetsuits let surfing spread out all over the world. Now in days surfing is having a great popularity but surfing industry always tries to keep the spirit of surfing respecting his beginnings. Surfing no es just a sport is a way of life.
