Not really an invention as much as the addition of a missing piece to a very clever invention somebody else though of but didn't finish.

The below link shows a really cool "wave dock" that flexes with the waves as you run along and jump in the water with your surfboard.

So put wheels on the surfboard and ride the dock like a scateboard then veer off onto the wave.

Duh!

If you scale the dock down a bit, essentially it becomes a bendy surf board.

You know, that's not a bad idea.

Not sure what that would accomplish though. You'd just have a very big surfboard.

Finally, an idea that I don't have to google™ or watch the youtube.

// very big surfboard //

If you made it big enough, you could put high sides on it, and have a place to sit down in the dry, out of the wind ...

Skateboards (originally in longboard form) were maybe actually invented by surfers wanting to practise on land.

That flexible, land freed wharf could quite easily be dual function.
