The art of surfing was developed by the Polynesian culture and was first reported by Joseph Banks, a British explorer at the HMS Endeavour of James Cook's first marine explorations in Tahiti in 1769.
Since then, surfing has become a popular water sport worldwide, including a wide range from leisure surfers to world champions.
