My 2 cents...I love it. It's not easy discerning that authentic sound. I listened to the samples and the vibe is right on ..IMO..good stuff...I'd leave it and submit...

Andrew. Surfs up bruh. Drop in,cut back, and get pitted.
Itโ€™s got the flavour, vibe and drive. Write another one.
Surfing is the only sport to have its own genre of music. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Great track, love the overall composition and performances. Best of luck with this.
Here's a few thoughts:
- Did you check if 1:20 is an OK length for this pitch, or what they were looking for in terms of structure? A typical surf instrumental ran ~2min, with an A, B and some sort of bridge. Not sure if they're looking for a cue or a full on instrumental piece here.
- Would be great to toss in a vibrato-ar,/whammy bar shimmer on a few of the chords and notes
- I didn't think the middle section felt right energy wise, it wasn't a lift or a significant back down from the main theme, and I didn't really here anything to latch onto in the melody there. Maybe a drum breakdown there ala 'wipeout'

Again very cool piece. It's 42degrees outside where I'm at, this helped warm me up inside.

Sounds great. I definitely think this is what they are asking for.
