surfable

Good for riding

Surfable describes conditions or waves suitable for surfing: The beach was finally surfable after the storm.

It extends to anything navigable in a surfing-like way—a surfable website or interface can be browsed smoothly and intuitively.

The redesign made the site much more surfable.
