SurfsUp is a standalone movement game built around surfing across angled ramps. Players steer through turns and jumps while managing momentum, aiming to finish courses or improve their times.
Alongside surf, the game includes bunny hopping and climbing courses, with Easy, Legacy, and Freestyle options. Players can also try alternate surf styles such as backwards and half-sideways.
Courses support checkpoints, split times, leaderboards, and replays. Players can compare runs with friends or leaderboard ghosts, and play solo or in multiplayer lobbies.
Players who enjoy SurfsUp often praise its smooth, satisfying movement and its standalone take on Counter-Strike-style surfing. Reviews also value the map selection, time-trial tools, and opportunities to play casually or improve through repeated runs. Others report inconsistent movement, bugs or performance problems, difficulty learning the mechanics, and frustration with map access and paid lobby options; opinions on how closely it recreates classic surf vary.

Classic surf re-imagined in the Godot game engine. Free to play and made for everyone.
