Beginners Guides

Text Guides

While learning from watching can help you see what is going on in game, there a number of text-based guides that can help you get up to speed, many containing helpful commands, settings, or server reccomendations that you wouldn't find in a video guide.

Video Guides

The first guide is my favorite, by SurfKultur, and it covers how to get into surfing in surprising depth. From basic ramp riding, learning how to flick, and tips on mouse sensitivity, this guide has everything you need to to get your feet off the ground.

This guide by streebee is also very good. Covering most of the same topics, it is also worth watching in order to hear things described a different way. In a game mode that is as un-intuitive as surfing, finding something descriptions that resonate with you is important when you're starting out.
