Transworld Surf was developed by Angel Studios, a game shop known for making visually stunning outdoor environments. Therefore, it’s no bolt from the blue that this extreme surfing game excels graphically. All 10 of the game’s locations have a distinct look that properly reflects the conditions in each area. Also lifelike are the player models and animations. The sound effects aren’t nearly as remarkable as the graphics, but the music is splendid. The diverse soundtrack features tracks from Nebula, Dr. Onionskin, Cali Agents, Anti-Flag, and Sum 41.

Game modes include free surf, release session, multiplayer, and pro tour. The first three modes are self-explanatory, while the last consists of objective-based levels and competitions with the pros. Although the controls are open, timing tricks and combos is initially hard. Unlike in skateboarding and BMX sports meeting, the player has to master each trick’s timing while worrying about a constantly moving environment. While it may be too disheartening for beginners, this is a deep and rewarding game that’s a joy to behold. This is to surfing sports meeting what Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater is to skateboarding sports meeting. –Raymond M. Padilla
