Turning on and off "surfing mode" in a TF2 server?

I have a competitive TF2 server for my 6s team and some of my teammates want to surf on the server. I installed a bunch of maps, but then realized that the cvars were not easily adjustable and needed to be put into the server config itself. From what my teammates tell me, I should have the following in my server.cfg

sm_cvar sv_gravity 800

sm_cvar sv_accelerate 5

sm_cvar sv_airaccelerate 100 or 1000 (I normally use 100 but some servers use 1000).

sm_cvar sv_wateraccelerate 10

Yes, I do have sourcemod installed on the server.

My questions are twofold

Are these the correct settings to put into server.cfg?

Is there any way to quickly switch between "surfing mode" and "regular mode" for the server without editing the server config (like with soap_on and soap_off)?

couldn't you essentially make two files (one w/ the surf configuration on and one w/ it off) and just execute them? sorry if i'm incorrect in saying this.

You only need to touch airaccelerate and tickrate for surfing, the rest of the commands are default. Don't worry about tickrate (leave it at 66). I'm pretty sure that surf.it uses sv_airaccelerate 150, but no guarantees.

why is sv_accelerate 5, default is 10, correct? idk.
Yes, Su/Surf iT uses 150. Don't touch the wateraccelerate and accelerate commands.
1000 for airacceleration is for trick surfing.
Only way to put "surf mode" on is separate configs, like
surf.cfg
normal.cfg
