so you could surf
Hobie Alter and Grubby Clark built the first fiberglass surfboards in 1958.
They can get 10 feet long! (Pretty big, don't you think?)Invented in Hawaii, surfboards were often over fifteen feet long.See the link:
the science of surfboards is forces and gravity
surfboards have curves to stop them form nose diving (when the front of the surfboards goes into the water) the curve is called a rocker.
Firewire Surfboards design all types of surfboards including Triple Density, Custom Design, Balsa Rails, Rapid Flex, Unibow, Artillery, Fishtail and Kingfish.
There are many sporting good retailers that sell a variety of surfboards in your area. Sporting retailers such as Big 5 may have a variety of surfboards available.

Surfboards have become lighter, stiffer, shorter, and their keels have become more advanced hydro-dynamically.

Surfboards were made so that people could enjoy water in a different way. Surfboards originated in Hawaii and were made out of wood. The surfboard that is used today is lighter and allows a person to ride a wave much easier.
