benc Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 It's not natural because nobody can do it without using a surfboard or something (a door?). It doesn't happen normally. Are you serious? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lokithelion Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Its a natural occurrence in nature that man has unnaturally paid tribute to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgoodcore Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 The act of surfing is natural because it appears naturally in the wild, much like walking. Man has used unnatural resources to make it more enjoyable and/or more effective. But I'd delve in to the meaning of natural vs. unnatural to make my point. I think you need a strong definition of what "being natural" means versus what being "unnatural" means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you mean surfing as in "standing on a surfboard and surfing a wave," in which case I stand by my answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is you can body surf, it requires no board or any other implement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the prof means physically surfing a wave, or if the prof means the sport of surfing are different questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
