- “The game offers a variety of modes, including tour modes, free surf, and trick challenges, ensuring hours of engaging gameplay.”

- “Gameplay and physics are absolutely awful.”
- “- the pumping mechanics are terrible!”

- “The career mode adds depth, challenging players to climb the world rankings while managing various aspects like money, equipment, health, and performance.”
