A gift from Polynesia to the whole world: “Sometimes 20-30 men go out to sea with the swell of the surf, lie flat on an oval piece of wood their size and width, leave their feet directly on it and use their arms to steer the wooden plank. They wait until the surf is at its highest and paddle all together with their arms to stay on top of the waves and rush towards the beach at an astonishing speed(…)” – Today’s surfing.
