Do you think surfing is great training for the sport of boxing?

Question

It gives you a rock-hard posture, long muscular lower back, strong arms, and plenty of counter-swing momentum

Answer 1

honestly surfing helps with your skill with your footwork, ive never boxed but i have surfed. i believe with boxing you need to be fast on your feet and surfing will help. Also paddling out will build up your biceps and triceps

Answer 2

1) No form of exercise changes the length of a muscle unless there's a flexibility imbalance to begin with. the shape of an individual muscle in general can only be changed with a scalpel.  

2) Without more direct upper body training, surfing does no more good than most forms of core training for boxing, and perhaps less good than more focused explosive core work.
