The lineup
含义: The area in the ocean where surfers sit on their boards and wait for waves, taking turns catching them.
The lineup is where the action happens in surfing — surfers paddle out past the breaking waves and sit in a loose group, waiting for sets to arrive. There are unwritten rules about who gets priority (closest to the peak, longest wait, locals). Knowing how to behave in the lineup is essential surf etiquette, and violating it causes serious friction.
