Surfing toys and methods of attaching and detaching different types of upwardly protruding objects on the surfing toy with a hydrofoil underneath comprising a skeg and a wing/vanes. The assembled toy can ride incoming waves back to shore. The hydrofoil can have weights being extra weight or thickened portions at any location on the wing vanes, skegs, any combination, or have no extra weight. The wings/vanes can be bendable to different positions to enhance the toy's performance. Different versions of pegs can be used to attach the main wing, skeg, flotation device and upwardly protruding objects together. The upwardly protruding objects can include figurines, vehicles, toys, sails and the like, and the surfing toy can be used without an upwardly protruding object. The surfing toy can also be pulled through the water with motorboats and/or fishing poles.
