Surfing disciplines refer to different styles and competitions within the sport. "Shortboarding" involves riding small, agile boards for performing maneuvers and tricks quickly. "Longboarding" uses longer, more stable boards suited for smooth, flowing rides and classic maneuvers. "Big wave surfing" tackles massive waves, demanding advanced skills and bravery. "Bodyboarding" uses a shorter board and allows riding waves lying down, focusing on agility. "Stand-up paddleboarding" involves paddling on a larger board to glide across the water, often for recreation or racing. Each discipline emphasizes different techniques, equipment, and wave conditions, showcasing the sport's diversity.
