What is another word for bombie?
Pronunciation: [bˈɒmbi] (IPA) 
Bombie is a slang term used in Australia to describe a wave that breaks abruptly on a shallow reef or sandbar. This term is most commonly used in surfing lingo, but there are also other synonyms that can be used to describe such a wave. Some of these synonyms include shorebreak, closeout, and dumping wave. The term shorebreak refers to a wave that breaks directly on the beach, while closeout describes a wave that breaks all at once, leaving no surfable section.

These synonyms may be used interchangeably depending on the specific nature of the wave being described.
