Surfing
Surfing is hard to do and it takes years of practice to master it. Surfing is likely invented in Hawaii in ancient times. They use much longer boards that the boars used today. It was a very important part of ancient Hawaiian culture and even chiefs have to be good surfers. Outsiders first learned about surfing in 1778, after the British explorer Captain James Cook arrived in Hawaii with his ships but unfortunately angry Hawaiians killed Captain Cook when he tried to kidnap their chief and from then on surfing was brought to the world.
