Search Results - Surfing

Type in a word or phrase to search:

Surfing is a surface water sport in which the participant is carried along the face of a breaking wave, most commonly using a surfboard, although wave-riders may make use of kneeboards, body boards (aka boogie boards), kayaks, surf skis, and their own bodies. Surfing-related sports such as paddleboarding and sea kayaking do not require waves, and other derivative sports such as kitesurfing and windsurfing rely primarily on wind for power, yet all of these tools may as well be used to ride waves.

Two major subdivisions within contemporary stand-up surfing are reflected by the differences in surfboard design and riding style of longboarding and shortboarding.

In tow-in surfing (most often, but not exclusively, associated with big wave surfing), a surfer is towed into the wave by a motorized water vehicle, such as a jetski, generally because standard paddling is often ineffective when trying to match a large wave's higher speed.

According to the website for a commercial documentary[1]surfing was a central part of ancient Polynesian culture, and the chief was the most skilled wave rider in the community with the best board made from the best tree. Moreover, the ruling class had the best beaches and the best boards, and commoners were not allowed on the same beaches, but they could gain prestige by their ability to ride the surf on their extremely heavy boards.According to the same website, surfing permeated ancient Polynesian society, including religion and myth, and Polynesian chiefs would demonstrate and confirm their authority by the skills they displayed in the surf.

Are you surfing this article for a legitimate reason, or are you just trying to avoid doing some work that doesn't appeal to you? Wait! Don't go away! I'm just trying to make a point here... you're not living up to your full potential when you're spending too much time on "Internet fluff" - the unproductive usage of your Internet time.

2. Online Safety Heads Back-to-School
September 02, 2008

August means kids heading back to school! Parents around the country rejoice! While some kids may have found more time to surf idly online during the summer, very often, parents are able to curtail that time. Now with school back in the picture, kids have the excuse they need to 'legally' be online and surfing the Internet even more. Many teachers now post homework online, encourage online research and require properly typed homework. Thus, parents have no choice but to allow their kids to be on the computer. However, unsupervised time can quickly turn to mischief. Instead of doing ... (read more)

3. Advanced Surfing: Hitting the Lip
September 02, 2008

Hitting the lip involves accelerating on a wave enough to surf up the face of the wave to the lip (the crest) and then coming back down to continue down the line. This maneuver will be one of your first tricks on a short board, and it’s one of the more enjoyable moves because it involves going up the wave quickly before gently falling back down. If you watch surfing videos, which you should because they will teach you a great deal about short-boarding technique, notice how the surfer determines the move he or she will make by the shape and condition of the wave itself. The speed of the w... (read more)

5. Now You're Up: Riding a Wave
September 02, 2008

So you’ve mastered the art of standing up on a surfboard, now what? How do you ride the wave, change positions, and maybe even “hit the lip” or “hang 10?” The art of changing positions on a surfboard is a skill that you will learn, the more you practice it. You will also find that positioning is also a matter of technique. For the most part, this ability takes a good deal of balance and requires you to distribute your weight on the board correctly as you ride a wave. Your position on the board, and your ability to adjust positions to get your board to do what you want it to, is absolutely vita... (read more)

6. Beginner's Guide to Mobile Broadband
September 02, 2008

If you thought that mobile broadband was something to do with surfing the web on your mobile phone, you're very wrong. Mobile broadband allows you to have immediate web access on either your computer or laptop from wherever you are, be it at home, at the airport, on the train or halfway across the Pennine Way. Instead of the cables or wires needed for standard broadband, mobile broadband is powered by the 3G mobile network, hence the name. Simply, all you need is a subscription to a mobile service network and a plug-in USB modem - a dongle, if you prefer - and you're away. ... (read more)
