- Bottom: Refers to the ocean floor, or to the lowest part of the wave ridden by a surfer[2]
- Channel: A deep spot in the shoreline where waves generally don't break, can be created by a riptide pulling water back to the sea and used by surfers to paddle out to the waves[2]
- Chop or choppy: Waves that are subjected to cross winds, have a rough surface (chop) and do not break cleanly Шаблон:Listref
- Close-out: A wave is said to be "closed-out" when it breaks at every position along the face at once, and therefore cannot be surfed[3]
- Crest: The top section of the wave, or peak, just before the wave begins to break [4]
- Curl: The actual portion of the wave that is falling or curling over when the wave is breaking[4]
- Face: The forward-facing surface of a breaking wave Шаблон:Listref
- Flat: No wavesШаблон:Listref
- Glassy: When the waves (and general surface of the water) are extremely smooth, not disturbed by wind Шаблон:Listref
- Gnarly: Large, difficult, and dangerous (usually applied to waves) Шаблон:Listref
- Green: The unbroken portion of the wave, sometimes referred to as the wave shoulder[2]
- Inshore: The direction towards the beach from the surf, can also be referring to the wind direction direction traveling from the ocean onto the shore[2]

- Off the hook: An adjective phrase meaning the waves are performing extraordinarily well Шаблон:Listref
- Outside: Any point seaward of the normal breaking waves[3]
- Peak: The highest point on a wave[2]
- Pocket: The area of the wave that's closest to the curl or whitewash. Where you should surf if you want to generate the most speed. The steepest part of a wave, also known as the energy zone.
- Pounder: An unusually hard breaking wave[3]
- Point break: Area where an underwater rocky point creates waves that are suitable for surfingШаблон:Listref
- Riptide: A strong offshore current that is caused by the tide pulling water through an inlet along a barrier beach, at a lagoon or inland marina where tide water flows steadily out to sea during ebb tide

- Trough: The bottom portion of the unbroken wave and below the peak, low portion between waves[2][4]
- Undertow: An under-current that is moving offshore when waves are approaching the shore[2]
- Wall: The section of the wave face that extends from the shoulder to the breaking portion, where the wave has not broken and where the surfer maneuvers to ride the wave[4]
- Wedge: Two waves traveling from slightly different direction angles that converge to form a wedge when they merge, where the wedge part of the two waves usually breaks a great deal harder than the individual waves themselves[2]
- Whitecaps: The sea foam crest over the waves[2]
- Whitewater: In a breaking wave, the water continues on as a ridge of turbulence and foam called "whitewater"Шаблон:Listref or also called "soup"[4]
