[edit] US-centric part

Regarding this sentence: "John Ledyard, an American serving under explorer Captain Cook, was the first American to witness surfing in Hawaii in the late 1700s." -- Why are we focusing on the American and the fact that he was American? Isn't the interesting bit that a Captain Cook expedition saw surfing on Hawaii in the 1700s?
