These go a way back. One morning while walking along Ocean Beach at sunrise, I saw the US coast guard having some fun. I am guessing that they were practicing manoeuvres in big wave weather.

@quaap When I first saw them, I thought they were nuts, but, I guess, once I realized they were a coast guard boat, they were training and were having fun. :)
@CStamp Yes, they train in the surf, there is a surfman certification in the CG, a very elite group who train at National Motor Lifeboat Schools. There's one up here in Ilwaco WA at the mouth of the Columbia River.
@GPJohnston Thanks, that’s good to know for sure.
