  5. Surf- Your Culture Surfers represent a diverse culture based on riding the naturally occurring process of ocean waves. While some people surf for living, receiving sponsorships, others surf for pure fun and entertainment Surfing culture is most dominant in California, Florida and Hawaii. The things people usually need to surf are: the station wagon used to carry surfers' boards, as well as boardshorts, the long swim suits typically worn while surfing. The sport of surfing has become so popular that it now represents a multi-billion dollar industry specially in clothing and fashion markets. Escola Básica 2º e 3º Ciclo Manuel de Figueiredo
