Being a surfer (short boat surfer) I would worry about an ear plug that enters the ear canal.
Reason is, I've been clocked by some hearty waves and had I had ear plugs in, they would have been driven deep into my ear canal!
An ear cover of some sort that can't be driven into the ear canal by pressure would be my preference for surfing.
I've used the disposable foam earplugs for general rolling with great results.
I like Jays method of adding something inside the hood. I'll have to try that one.
