I don't have any photographic techniques for shooting surf, but if I was
going to try I'd go for a faster shutter speed, tripod mount the camera

Many of my shots were indeed on a tripod.

and take a mess of photos of the crashing waves. Then selectively blend

You can trust me to take a mess of photos. And for that matter to make a mess of photos.

the shots to blur (via multiple averaged exposures) the places that
looked better motion blurred and keep sharp the stuff that looks best
frozen. I never tried this technique with surf but I have with little
creeks and waterfalls and it works.

One of these days I really need to learn photoshop. For that matter, there's a lot of Lightroom that I'm not taking advantage of as well. Although, over the past year I have had more frustrations with Lightroom than there have been advances.
