What do you think is the best setup in terms of grate (scoop), prop, ride plate and stubbie cone if you want to ride freestyle in the surf without harming your top end?

he said he did not want to affect "topend"
i was assuming he meant high speed handling on the lake and stuff, and i dont mind the uncut stocker in the surf, but it'll get cut eventually

There is no best just what works best for each rider and everyone is different .D cuts are great for surf but suck for going fast .
A top loader grate is a must .

yup..
IMO a stubby pump cone is a must as well, but others will say different
toploader
solas 13/15-16-17 cutback
skat 12/17 freeride
stock plate or with a Dcut
this is pretty much a basic surf recipe
whatever you choose for the rideplate, shorter will be better as it will keep the nose down...racers use longer rideplates

if you're interested I have a solas concord impeller that has been repitched (12-15) and cut back 3mm. $150 shipped. this is a great surf impeller with extra low end grunt.
