a long board we stand or lie on to ride waves

What is a "surfboard"?

A surfboard is a long, flat board used in surfing to ride waves in the ocean. It is usually made of lightweight materials, such as fiberglass, and comes in different shapes and sizes depending on the style of surfing. Surfboards are designed to float on water and provide stability while allowing the surfer to balance and maneuver over waves. The rider stands on the board, using their body movements to control direction and speed as they ride the waves. Surfboards are essential for surfers and are used in both recreational and competitive surfing.

Who is a "surfer"?

A surfer is a person who rides waves on a surfboard, usually in the ocean. Surfers paddle out into the water, waiting for the right wave, and then use their balance and skill to ride the wave back toward the shore. Surfing requires good timing, coordination, and understanding of wave patterns to catch and ride the waves effectively. Surfers may practice for recreation or compete in surfing competitions, where they are judged on their ability to perform maneuvers and tricks while riding the waves. Surfing is both a sport and a lifestyle, often linked to beach culture.
