Introduction
*******************************************************************************
Hello,my name is Chris Bugaj aka maddgamz on gamefaqs.This is my very first faq
so I decided to get some help. Fastkilr will be helping me write this faq. He
has wrote 100+reviews on this site, and was my first choice for help.
Transworld Surf is a game that i felt was very underapreciated, and I thought
it deserved its own guide. This game has great graphics, a great soundtrack,
exciting multiplayer, a deep Pro Tour mode, and Tons of unlockables. Still
wondering why I wrote this guide? Well, I'm sure someone out there needs help
on this game, and since there is no other guide, I believe this will be the
first.

*******************************************************************************

*******************************************************************************

Basic Tricks

The Anatomy of a wave

First for all non surfers out there, let me give you a brief introduction about
waves and each section of them. Each and every wave has four sections.

Barrel section: The inside of the wave.

Flats: The outside of the wave

Sweet Spot:Where you need to stand up to start surfing.

Lip: The top of the wave where you can do snap turns and floaters.

*******************************************************************************

Now on to the basic tricks. Basic tricks should be combined with advanced
tricks to create massive combos. More on linking tricks later...

Carves: These are large turns on the face of the wave.

Pumping: This is how you increase your speed move your stick left and right
quickly to gain more speed.

Snap Turns: These are executed by pressing the X button on the lip of the wave.

Airs/Ollies: Hold the A button as you hit the top of the wave let go and up you
go.

Floaters: These are done by pressing the Y button on the top of the wave. Don't
confuse it with grinding, we are on water here. Keep the ball centered.

Barrels: Use the B button to stall, keep holding it to get deeper and deeper
into the barrel. The deeper you go the harder it is to maintain control.

Fakie: This is a big trick where you start riding backwards. When you go fakie
and then do a trick then your trick meter will quickly be fillerd. Press the
X button to get out of fakie.

*******************************************************************************

Advanced Tricks

Snaps

180 Snap: While the surfer is looking left on the screen, move the control
stick starting from the right, counter-clockwise to the left, then press X on
the lip of your wave. If you are coming from the opposite side just switch it
up so you are looking right, move the control stick start from the left,
clockwise to the left then press X on the Lip of the wave.

360 Snap: While the surfer is looking left on the screen, move the control
stick starting from the right in a full counter-clockwise position, so it comes
back to right, after a circle. At the lip of the wave press X. When you are
facing opposite switch it up, Start from left on the control stick,bring it
around in a 360 circle back to the left position, and tap X at the top of
the wave.

Reversals: When the surfer is facing right,start from the right,then move
counter clockwise to the left,then press X at the top of the wave. If a surfer
is facing to the left of the screen and you want to pull a reversal, move the
control stick from the left clockwise to the right, press X at the top of the
wave.

Airs

Left-hand grab 1: When in the air,press the L button.

Right-hand grab 1: When in the air,press the R button.

Two-handed grab 1: When in the air,press the L button+R button.

Two-handed grab 2: When in the air,press the L button+R+B button.

Left-hand grab 2: When in the air,press the R button+B button.

Right-hand grab 2: When in the air,press the R button+B button.

Flip Tricks

Kick Flip: Hold the A button, then on the control stick move up, down, then
release A.

Heel Flip: Hold the A button, then on the control stick move down,up,then
release A.

Shuvit 360: Hold the A button,then on the control stick move up, right, down,
then release A.

Floaters

Boardside floater: Hold the Y button + move left on the control stick direction
towards the wave.

Crooked floater: Hold the Y button + move right on the control stick direction
towards the wave.

Regular floater: Hold the Y button

Special Tricks

Each surfer has 3 special tricks, that are unique to him/her. To perform them
your trick meter must be completly full,and giving off a bit of a glow. Once
its full hold the A button and move the stick in different directions.
NOTE: For Special floaters,dont hold the A button.

Combos

This is the key to mastering the game. Without combos you would be clueless,
and your score would be relativly low. Performing a combo is just linking one
trick after another. To get big scores you must perform new tricks, that you
havent't performed in that heat. Link tricks such as airs, floaters, snap
turns, and specials.

*******************************************************************************

Walkthrough

This Walkthrough will cover all the tips, and goals, and try to show you ways
to get around, or achieve later more difficult goals.

Pro Tour consist of 11 stages, all broken up into three stages. Two are goal
stages while the last one is a competition to win that stop on the tour and a
new board. During each stage you have to have a certain amount of photos taken
before you can move on to competition mode.

Kirra Point

Midday goals

Score 7,500 points

Carve 3 cutbacks on one wave

Perform 3 grabs on one wave

Free 4 dolphins from the tuna nets

Photos 2

Kirra point is a small slow wave theres not much air you can get here.The goals
arent very hard to do here.I will go ahead and mention when you are trying to
do other goals such as freeing the dolphins from the tuna nets,it really helps
to use the C stick to see where you are going. Just run over the stars to free
the dolphins.

Sunrise goals

Score 10,000 points

Do a three trick combo

Scare 3 birds from the wave

Surf the Entire difficult wave to the end

When surfing a difficult wave you must surf it from beginning to end.If you
dont the goal wont count.Try not to get too fancy on these waves they arent
called difficult waves for nothing!

Competition

Here it is the competition you must complete these to unlock new boards and
advance further into the game. These consist of three 3 minute heats. You have
to score points on three waves, manage your time on each wave.I usually spend
one minute on each wave and then move on. An important thing is dont snake
(steal another surfers wave) if you do you will lose points and your karma
meter will fall.To avoid snaking waves,wait for new ones to come in.

Fort Point

Midday goals

Score 15,000 points

Do 6 grabs on one wave

Execute 3 snap turns on one wave

Avoid sealife

photos 4

Fort Point is a faster wave than Kirra point so go big with airs,remember to
try variety of tricks to add to the multiplier.Sharks inhabit this stage as
well,so dont let your karma meter fall or you could be lunch! When surfing the
hazard waves you must avoid the sealions if you hit one you have to start over.

Sunset goals

Score 20,000 points

Do a 6 trick combo

Air over 2 boats

Surf an entire 10,000 point normal wave to the end.

Airing over boats isnt all that hard but it helps to look ahead for the stars
and prepare to jump it,floating a wave alos helps you get over them,just do a
floater and jump at the right time.

Competition

Same as before, remember not to snake waves (to keep good karma) and try to stay
on the normal waves.

Tavarua

Midday goals

Score 25,000 points

Surf over 3 jelly fish

Ollie over 2 gunmen

Do 3 roundhouse cutbacks on one wave

Photos 4

Tavarua is a beautiful location to surf,but the goals are going to get more and
more difficult.In this stage you will have to learn how to roundhouse cutback
and jump over exposed reef sections.The midday goals are pretty light.Basicly
to do a round house cutback do a cut back followed by a snap turn thats all you
have to do.

Evening goals

Score 30,000 points

Do a 9 trick combo

Execute Four 20 second barrels on one wave

Left hand grab over 4 exposed reef sections

Ok the evening goals are easy except for the reef sections.Its all your timing
and positioning,do the main things get good speed by pumping and hold A and let
go just before you hit the lip of the wave then hold the L button to left hand
grab over the sections.

Competition

Nothing new here you know the routine go big,manage your time on each wave and
dont snake waves.

Hossegor

Midday goals

Score 35,000 points

Do a 5 second floater

Scare 3 birds from the wave

Ollie 4 bunker walls

Photos 2

Hossegor is a medium sized wave with plenty of sharks,birds,and bunker walls.
Yes,the bunker walls are you toughest goals here.You have to stay in good
control of your board.The camera angle will change to a more over head view
giving you a better view of where you are going.Heres a tip hold the A button
down while you are trying to get in position to ollie the bunker walls it helps
you maintain your speed better.

Morning goals

Score 40,000 points

Do a two trick combos on one wave

Execute 10 snaps on one wave

Shoot the Bunker Section

Once again the bunker section is you main headache here.Same as before but this
time you have to make quick turns as well because the path kind of winds around.
Its important to not lack behind because the barrel will catch you and cause a
wipe out.Pump alot and make sure to stay ahead of the barrel.

Competition

For this competition try to do more barrels than you would normally do and lots
of snap turns,and floaters.You arent gonna bust many airs here.

G-Land

Midday goals

Score 45,000 points

Do 3 reversals on one wave

Ollie 4 turtles

Surf an Entire 20,000 difficult wave

4

G-Land is a fun wave, you can do pretty decent airs here and the barrels are
very narrow making it more the sweeter.When you try to ollie the turtles make
it your first goal when you start a new session because its alot easier to find
them.They are all nice and lined up the first time but if you miss, start a new
session because its very difficult to locate them, (they like to move around)
so just do it all in one go.A rule of thumb for surfing entire point difficult
waves is,once you get the necessary points just take it easy and dont do any
more.It sucks to have to do it again just cuz you were messing around when all
you had to do was take it easy.

Dusk goals

Score 50,000 points

Do two 6 trick combos

Scare 5 birds from the wave

Shoot the rock section

Prepare your self for one of the more difficult goals in the game.Shooting the
rocks is not easy by any means.Luckly there is a pretty good route i have found
that makes it alot easier.Ok you will use your cstick almost exclusivly in this
goal so get used to holding it up and surfing at the same time.Now as you come
to the first formation of rocks look to the right.See that little hole thats
where you need to go first,then you will come to the second formation do the
same thing here,you need to keep ahead of the barrel so always be pumping for
speed or you wont make it.The third formation is the same way,stay to the right
as much as you can now for the hard part,when you come to the last formation of
rocks you will notice a hole but you will have to turn quickly and perfectly
while both maintaining your speed and avoiding the barrel coming from behind.

Competiton

I will not explain these anymore.

Huntington

Midday goals

Score 55,000 points

Execute three 180 snaps on one wave

Air over the pier banner

Air two wave peaks

Photos 6

This my friends is the toughest wave in the game.So why isnt it the last?
Huntington should have been named Amity (from the Jaws movie)because the sharks
are very aggressive here more than any area in the game.If you so much as touch
another surfer or get bad karma in any way the sharks will actually hunt you!
I have even had them jump up to grab me! So keep that in mind for starters.

This wave has the toughest goal in the game.Thats right airing over the pier
banner has given me fits for a long time.I still dont know how to do it right.
If anyone finds out an easy way let me know please.All i can say is its all
timing and luck.You have to be in perfect position and have the right speed,
then on top off all that you have to have enough air and must avoid a wipe out
all at the same time.Airing wave peaks is your next toughie,you have to watch
to see when they form and then air them.

Night goals

Score 60,000 points

Do two 9 trick combos

Do three 4 second floaters on one wave

Shoot the pier for 5 seconds

Thank goodness this session is easier.The only troublesome goal here is when
you shoot the pier for 5 seconds.Try to avoid the many pylons and stall for a
little bit while waiting for the barrel to catch up then make a b-line for the
other side.

Pipeline

Midday goals

Score 65,000 points

Do three 360 snaps on one wave

Ollie over 3 outriggers

Surf an Entire 30,000 point difficult wave

Photos 8

Pipeline is my favorite wave in the game.Its certainly the funnest to me.
Its big,fast,and perfect for mega airs!I have managed to get over 500,000
points on this wave.Enjoy it while it lasts.

Ollieing over the outriggers is the only thing that might give you trouble
here.Make sure to aim for the edges of them.You just have to barely jump it.

Sunset goals

Score 70,000 points

Do three 3 trick combos

Do one 20 second barrel

Do 10 grabs on one wave

To do three 3 trick combos just do a basic snap,air,floater three times.When
going for a 20 second barrel you must tap the b button often to stay in the
barrel,also try not to go too deep,its worth more points but harder to stay
in.

Witches Rock

Storm goals

score 75,000 points

Perform 2 special tricks on one wave

Spray 4 of the large birds

Surf the wave in the croc infested waters

Witches rock is a dark stormy wave filled with crocs,wave peaks,and hard to
find photographers.To surf the wave in the croc infested waters you must be
very carefull.It helps to surf in the flats and then come back to the sweet
spot.Do this until you reach the end of the wave.

Night goals

Score 80,000 points

Do three 6 trick combos

Kickflip over 3 severed cow heads

Execute a two handed grab over 3 wave peaks

There are two goals here that might give you trouble.First airing the wave peaks
can be a struggle because when they finally form you might not be in a good pos-
tion to air them.Try to stay close to the barrel and learn when they form then
two hand grap over them.Kickfliping over the 3 cow heads is pretty hard because
you must be lined up just right.Remember to use the cstick and prepare ahead of
time kickflip them.Look for the stars in the dark.

Teahupoo

Midday goals

Score 90,000 points

Do five 3 second barrels on one wave

Do 3 special tricks on one wave

Right hand grab over three boats

AH Teahupoo reminds me of Pipeline with its big heavy wide waves.The boats are
the only problem here.There are several of them on the wave so dont give up if
you miss one or two.Use the wave to help you do this one.

Sunrise goals

Score 100,000 points

Do a 12 trick combo

Find and scare the high flying bird

Surf the Entire 40,000 point difficult wave

Finding the bird is one thing but finding a way to scare it is quite another.
Its easy if you get enough air quickly i use the L+B grab and take off just
near the barrel.The bird is on the normal wave on the far left of the screen.
If you want to do this goal make it your first one.

Todos Santos

Morning goals

Score 110,000 points

Do six 1 second floaters on one wave

Perform 5 special tricks on one wave

Shoot the rocks

Photos 8

Man you talk about a big wave.Todos Santos is a monster!Just staying on the wave
is a challenge.But shooting the rocks is the hardest goal here.You must keep up
your speed to survive this one the wave is very fast and will close quickly.
Bob and weave your way through the gauntlet of rocks.

Sunset goals

Score 120,000 points

Do three 9 trick combos

Do 20 grabs on one wave

Surf the Monster wave to the end

Dont get fancy on the monster wave dont even do any tricks.Just try to stay on!
When doing the 20 grabs on one wave,try to do as many airs while you can while
up in the air.

Antarctica

Morning goals

Score 130,000 points

Perform 7 special tricks

Surf the Entire Whale Wave

Surf through the ice cavern

Ah,chilly Antarctica.The only goals here that might get you trouble are
The 7 specials and the surfing through the whale wave.When doing the 7
specials do all special floaters they are quick.When doing the whale
Wave treat it much like the Witches rock crocs.

Sunrise goals

Score 140,000 points

Do two 12 trick combos on one wave

Ollie 4 polar bears

Shoot the glacier area

The last stage is a pretty easy one.The glacier area should be treated
like all the other rock areas you have faced.Congrats on finishing pro
tour mode.
