Nice shots!
.... but if I were to critique, I'd say the sharpening was a little too much (if you did any). I do the same thing all to often. How was the 7D's AF set up?

Thanks, only moderate usm sharpening.

Al servo, 8 fps, expanded centre point and C Fn 3 set to slow sensitivity.

That move can be called an off-the-lip, a re-entry, backside lipbash, etc.
I think mostly it's called a re-entry these days (backside because his back is to the wave).

When I was growing up surfing we just called that a backside off-the-lip.

That lip didn't have a chance...nice backside slash.
