This simulation enhances the various difficulties incorporated in small wave
surfing and the characteristics of the famous Fistral beach. Soon new beaches
will become available to surfers who wish to follow the surfing trail all the
way to the massive Pacific rollers in Hawaii.
Zzap Newsflash Oct.1986
This game now makes available to everyone the sheer exhilaration of this
minority sport. This full feature game includes a range of new and unique
features not seen before in computer simulations.
The surfer's physical characteristics, his board selection, the weather, the
tide conditions and other factors all make the game different everytime the
surfers take their boards down to the beach.
The surfers build up their skill
and knowledge and it is this which will ultimately determine who will become
the Surfchamp.
A unique Hall of Fame and a multitude of other small but meaningful nuances
make this game really stand out from all other sports simulations. There is a
fully illustrated information mode for beginners on a separate loading.

An original but uninspiring simulation.
