They are all possible answers

Surfear is for the beaches. Or on the internet would be navegar el internet

Answer 3

I agree with Hacer Surf = to surf

Paralee has made flashcards which correspond to one of her lessons -I forget exactly which one and it says

Hacer Surf =to surf Hacer Snowboard = to snowboard Hacer el mono patinaje = to skateboard Hacer patinaje de hielos = to ice skate Hacer artes martiales =to do/practise martial arts

These are just some examples

Benz is correct too you can say Surfeamos = we surf practicamos surf = we practise surfing

Thanks for your answer, Feliz77! - JonZ99, May 19, 2010

Answer 6

My text has "practicar el surfing." I'm not sure what region that's supposed to be from.

Answer 7

I think it's hacer surf, I believe surfear is like surfing the internet.
