ABSTRACT:
A surfing toy is provided in the form of a surfer standing on a surfboard, the two desirably being molded integrally. The device actually surfs, i.e. it stays at the front of a wave even if the wave foams, and rights itself quickly if it is knocked over by a wave. Important features include the provision of a weighted keel which is located below the rear half of the board. The board is desirably much wider than a conventional surfboard relative to its length.
