  3. I always wanted to learn to surf but I live up north so it’s only
    snowboarding for me. I’m curious though on how surfers can carve
    (snowboard lingo) to turn at different angles and likewise hitting a wave
    and getting air.. Is there like traction on board? Is it really light? Is
    it like skateboarding? I’m just really curious =
