Not trying to downgrade the 21V, I am a previous Supra owner and always speak highly of the brand. Have heard great things about the 21V for wakeboarding.... it sounds like the surf wake is "decent"...
However, there are a couple other boats I would recommend you look at if you are strictly interested in surfing. The TIGE RZ2, and the Supreme 226 are GREAT surf boats. They are a little larger than the 21V. I have personally surfed behind the Supreme and it throws an awesome wake with very little ballast upgrade. We were at a clinic with Chase Hazen the #1 surfer in the world right now and he was shredding behind the Supreme 226. His comment about the wake was "amazing"..... they are priced around $55k. The Tige RZ2 is also a fantastic surf boat, but much higher priced than the Supreme. I believe Supreme actually sells a "surf" edition now properly weighted right off the showroom floor.
I do not own a Supreme, but if you are looking for a boat primarily for surfing make sure and look at all your options before making a major purchase.
