+### Fix Surfing Dismount Ground Effects Bug
+
+In vanilla emerald, the ground effects are not updated at the end of the surf dismount code. So if you dismount into tall grass, for example, you will appear over the grass. This is subtle but easily fixable so why not do so for consistency!
+
+**Before** **After**
+
+
+
+
+This fix is very simple. Open [src/field_player_avatar.c](../blob/master/src/field_player_avatar.c) and find the function `Task_WaitStopSurfing`. Before the line `DestroyTask(taskId)`, add the following:
+```c
+playerObjEvent->triggerGroundEffectsOnMove = TRUE;
+MovementType_Player(&gSprites[gPlayerAvatar.spriteId]);
+```
+
+That's it!
