Game is terrible got no idea how to control

This game is gnarly!!!

The graphics are like being in a real wave.
There were times when I forgot I was playing this game and thought I was at pipeline in Hawaii. The cityโ€™s in the background are so detailed itโ€™s like looking at google maps whoa. I talked to Jamie o brien and we were both Psyching out of our minds with this game!

Yup

I donโ€™t know how to ride the wave

Too Complicated

As I was scrolling to find a surfing app I came across this app called Surf or Die, which is already a strange name. The reason why I hate this game is bc I cannot tell u HOW LONG it took me to find out that u have to fricken turn ur phone. I also hate this bc beating ur record is almost impossible. And if ur like me who BEAT THE GAME, u pretty much just delete the game after that bc u can't to anything else on that game

THE BEST SURFING GAME EVER!

itโ€™s way better than true surf. As a kid I was searching the App Store for a really cool first person surf game sadly I only found it when I was older butโ€ฆ
I met a guy who was amazing at surfing IRL but love surf or die. Definitely recommend love it as much as you will.
