You can even learn to master the pipe and a full-on 360 turn. Adheres to A.S.P. official rules. Three levels of difficulty to choose from. Expand

  1. A great solo experience that'll leave patient gamers with nothing to show for it but sore thumbs and the satisfaction of being truly, totally radical.
  2. 65
    In the end, I have to say I am totally addicted to this crappy-somehow fun, totally simplistic surfing game, and I can't explain why exactly.
  3. A fun game with decent gameplay, but the shortage of modes, run-of-the-mill graphics, and lack of variety prevent "Surf Riders" from being to surf games what "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater" is to skateboarding games.
  4. Sure, it sounds gnarly, but the frustrating control interface and primitive graphics make Surf Riders a wipeout.
