History

{{expand section|date=October 2015}}{{See also|History of surfing}}

The earliest recorded instances of surfing took place in Hawaii in 17th Century. These instances are correlated to the Hawaiian tradition of "he'e nalu", which means "wave-sliding".[7] Duke Kahanamoku is considered an influential figure in popularizing surfing in the United States.

Nick Gabaldon is first known African American surfer.[8][9][10]

Surfing culture in the United States

{{expand section|date=October 2015}}{{See also|Surf culture}}

Surfing is very much a part of North Carolina, Californian, Floridian, and Hawaiian culture.

Surfing on the American East Coast of the United States began in Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina In 1909 Burke Haywood Bridgers and a colony of surfers introduced surfing & surfing competitions to American East Coast. The State of North Carolina honored Burke Haywood Bridgers and the colony of surfers by placing a North Carolina Highway Marker for PIONEER EAST COAST SURFING on Wrightsville Beach and designated Wrightsville Beach as the birthplace of surfing & competitive surfing on the American East Coast in 2015. North Carolina has the greater weight of published verifiable accurate evidence and impacts a broader geographical area when compared to other east coast states. Burke Haywood Bridgers and the colony of surfers activities are among the earliest appearances of surfboards in the Atlantic Ocean. The early twentieth century surfers proved that surfing migrated from Hawaii to North Carolina & California, about the same time, then Florida.

Surfing is growing amongst the African American community, despite being seen as a "white sport".[11][12][13][14]
