It was the Surfer's courageous decision to defy his master that made him a hero, but for his pains he was condemned to spend his life on the planet Earth, denied all access to the endless universe he loved to explore.

  Surfing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
These soul surfers, as they are often called, practice the sport purely for personal enjoyment and many even find a deeper meaning through involving themselves directly with naturally occurring wave patterns and subscribe to ecocentric philosophies, or ecosophies.
Surfers' skills are tested not only in their ability to control their board in challenging conditions and/or catch and ride challenging waves, but also by their ability to execute various maneuvers such as turning and carving.
However, even if a surfer is confident in their swimming ability, there is always the possiblity that the surfer could become unconscious through a head collision with another surfer, their own board, or rocks, reefs, or hard sand on the bottom of the water, in which case they won't be able to swim at all.

 Don Markstein's Toonopedia: The Silver Surfer
Tho he hadn't planned for The Silver Surfer to be there, Lee picked right up on the character, and a conflict between Galactus and The Surfer became a pivotal point in the story's resolution.
The Kirbyless Surfer, as revealed in the first issue, had led an ordinary life on a distant planet before joining Galactus; whereas Kirby had envisioned him as a being of pure energy whom Galactus had created.
Eventually, The Surfer was freed from his imprisonment on Earth, and that opened up new story possibilities — to say nothing of cutting down on monologues that had become hard to distinguish from common, ordinary whining.

This surfer is in motion to the right and the tail of the board pushes hard on the water it is moving through bringing him to a stop.
Once the surfer is up to speed on the wave the sum of the forces and torques is zero.
