I like the second shot better than the first. For me, what makes both of them is the subtle lighting, the coloration of the water. In this respect the first has a slight edge, but both are super. The surfer is a necessary added element, but the water texture and color is what makes them. And that is why on balance I prefer the second - the surfer is less obtrusive in the picture. In the first he fills so much of the frame that the eye is drawn back there and one loses the beauty. As a surfer action shot, the first may be better, as a good looking photo the second is my preference.
