The real selection criteria
When surfers ask for the best groveler, they usually mean one of two things: they want more speed in poor waves, or they want forgiveness without losing the ability to surf with intent. Those are related, but not identical.
The right page should therefore explain the wave first. Small and clean is not the same as small and windy. A board that feels lively in knee-high runners may feel corky and disconnected in textured chop.
Pair this with place
