A shore break is a type of wave that breaks directly on or very close to the shore, often in extremely shallow water. These waves tend to rise quickly and crash with force, creating a powerful and steep wave face. Shore breaks can be fun for body surfing but are challenging and sometimes dangerous for board surfers due to their intensity and the shallow water. 2, record 1, English, - shore%20break

The floater is a tricky maneuver that a surfer uses to ride up onto the lip of a breaking wave then "float" back down with the foam on to the clean face of the wave. The surfer's biggest challenge is making a good landing as the board hits the wave face. 2, record 2, English, - floater
