Surf's You Right

 I've been browsing through Classic Plastic, the modelling reference book and drooling over the surfing kits like Hawks

There's a few words that crop up in that and other books that I'm unsure about.

I can roughly guess, but does anyone what they actually mean?

Hep

Hodad

Hipster

Hang Ten

Bat Fink

Shooting the breeze

Surfs up

Hot Dogger

Surfari

Wipeout

Beach bum

Curl

Rip

Dude

  1. Wipeout's when the wave overcomes you whilst surfing.
    A beach bum is some one who hangs around the beach a lot, surfing, sunbathing, etc day or night.

  2. Hep cat is a dude who is "with it."

    I prefer Batman Beyond 's "shway.'
