\Which sentence is an example of faulty parallelism?People may not only surf with their bodies but also their surfboards.Riding ocean waves takes skill, stamina, and agility.Surfing requires no formal training, but it requires practice.Lying, kneeling, or standing on a surfboard takes skill.

Answer 1

People may not only surf with their bodies but also their surfboards.

Answer 2

Parallelism requires that the things you list down in a sentence have the same form. Among the sentences listed above, the sentence that is an example of faulty parallelism is: "Riding ocean waves takes skill, stamina, and agility.". This is because the phrase "takes skill" does not have the same form as "stamina" and "agility".
