Surfboard is a kind of sports equipment used for surfing. The original surfboard was about 5 meters long and weighed 50-60 kg. After the Second World War, foamed plastic plates appeared, and the shape of the boards improved. The current surfboard is 1.5-2.7 meters long, 60 cm wide and 7-10 cm thick. It is light and flat, with narrow front and rear ends, and a stabilizing caudal fin at the back and bottom. In order to increase the friction, a waxy outer film is coated on the board surface. All surfboards weigh only 11 to 26 kilograms.

Surfing is a water sport in which athletes stand on the surfboard, or use the web, kneeling board, inflatable rubber pad, rowing, kayak to control the waves. Surfing originated in Hawaii. In 1915, surfing first traveled to South America. In 1962, the first world surfing championship was held in manly, Australia. In 2010, the first Wanning international surfing festival in Hainan, China was held. On December 7, 2020, the International Olympic Committee agreed to list surfing as an official event of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.
