Great but please add more spots.

Its more fun now because they did but add more places but it would be cool to add more like the Newport wedge and blacks beach and steamer lane and mavericks just add more places.

game!

Been playing the game since nearly the beginning. It’s a great game. There has been some updates in the Middle Ages that almost made me stop playing, but I never did and every update since those times has always been at least small improvements but the past few updates have really been good ones for the most part. I’ve probably invested a couple hundred bucks over the years on clams and storms.

I hadn’t updated in a year or better until I updated a couple weeks ago. and have really enjoyed all of the new updates, like the new spots, and the missions with rewards beyond shakas and the new spots, as well as the beta features with the new physics and first person view while surfing. I only learned today that there’s another update with minor bug fixes and the air time adjustment on that mission.

Now, with all of that said, the only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is this: Over the past 2 or three years I know I’ve completed level 27 at LEAST 5 times. I just completed it again since the update a couple of weeks ago, but I’m still level 27. What gives? I’m not bothered by it enough to effect how how much I want to play, but it would be cool to be able to hit the pro level. Honestly I’d still give it a 5 but I figured 3 would get more attention.

So much better but…

Latest updates have saved this game. But can’t believe you haven’t implemented a simple way to do grabs with airs and it’s still way too easy to punch out the back of the wave when snapping in the pocket. As long as you keep the initial movement more of a carve it keeps you on but sometimes it would feel much better if you could snap vertically especially on the backhand. The feeling of the power and weight of water pushing you back down the face could be so much better. Having said that it is still far and away the best surfing experience outside the real thing.

Location bug

Rincón is not in California 😑

Never fix bugs

This game is impossible to progress. For weeks I haven’t been able to complete the air challenges on any of the surf spots i currently have the challenge in. I looked it up and many people also have this problem and their posts are from years ago. The developers put no effort in fixing issues.
