response: Well, I can tell you that Pacific native people surfed on their knees and belly, surfing waves on paipo and alaia
original_response: Definitely. I don't know if I could surf like the pros, though. I'd rather surf like natives, on my belly and on my knees.
history: I enjoy the summer.  It makes me think of vacations at the beach and going surfing Interesting. Did you know that body boarding is a prominent surfing form ? I am actually probably more comfortable body boarding.  It does not require the skill and coordination that surfing does Yeah, and surfing actually refers to rinding a wave, it doesn't matter if there is a board being used or not That makes sense. What else can you tell me ?
knowledge: The native peoples of the Pacific, for instance, surfed waves on alaia, paipo, and other such craft, and did so on their belly and knees.
