Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Paragliding 3D at none against Surf or Die's 2. Paragliding 3D also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.6). Surf or Die's advantage is ratings volume (174 vs 3) and review sentiment (20% vs 0%). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Surf or Die sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Paragliding 3D asks for nothing beyond the download.
Paragliding 3D holds the better App Store score, 2.3 against 2.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Surf or Die has 174 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of Surf or Die's written reviews are positive against 0% of Paragliding 3D's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
