SURFING
IN PERU |
Since
inmemorial times and for several reasons, man
rode the big waves all around the globe. Centuries
ago In Hawaii, "waves riding" was considered
God´s sport. Only nobility did it and the
glory aura and happiness that embrace them while
surfing made them look like Gods to people´s
eyes. It elevated those who rode waves over common
men.
In ancient Peru, "wave riding" was practiced
since the beginning of civilization in this part
of the American continent. Peruvians from the
coast rode waves coming in from fishing in a daily
and obliged ritual. To be a fisherman in ancient
Peru you had to be a surfer, a reed boat surfer.
Times
have changed, people evolved and so did men tools.
Old wooden boards in Hawaii or Peruvian reed boats
were replaced by modern and lighter surf boards
made of synthetic foam and fiber glass, although
the ecstasy feeling of riding a wave remains intact
in the hearts and souls of those who ride waves
today.
A
special combination of adventure spirit, courage,
commitment and the interminable search of the
perfect wave characterize this unique tribe of
men and women who travel the world dancing on
the crest of the waves.
Peru
is one of those privileged places on earth where
nature's generosity offers innumerable breaks
with waves from every size, from every type. From
beginners to advanced surfers, children, men,
women, there is a wave for every one in this country
where surfing is possible 365 days a year, with
lots of surf spots to be discovered and where
many, many waves pass unridden.
