waves/locations
-
many of the same breaks from ksps
-
include an end to the wave (hit the beach, wave dies down or closes out)
-
improve the beach breaks like trestles and Sebastian to go both ways (right and left)
-
ability to trick off the whitewater
-
ability to go strait up on broken wave (at Sebastian in certain circumstances, not pipeline)
-
improve existing breaks to resemble real-life counter parts to every last detail
-
sebastian jetty can not be shot it in real life
-
sebastian jetty should always be in the background
-
ocean bottom should be closer (more shallow)
-
should almost always hit the reef at breaks like pipeline and teahupoo
-
surfer should appear to be all the way out (no waves breaking further than him/her)
-
big wave breaks should look twice as big as cortez banks
-
big breaks should be harder to drop in on
-
more breaks from slater video footage/segments (backdoor, puerto escondido)
-
can you surf mundaka without a wetsuit?
-
teahupoo should look even sketchier with a very difficult drop
-
include a small left
-
-
ability to snap off breaking wave in front of the surfer
-
include mushy waves that don’t barrel and curls that can be tricked off of
-
barrels should close out sometimes
-
ability to surf Slater known secret spots
-
ability to change variables for each break; size, weather, etc.
-
include even smaller waves (Sebastian could have been a little smaller in size)
-
should be held under a LOT longer at say mavericks than sebastian
surfers
-
at least three new pros
-
Slater should be a tad bit skinnier
-
each surfer should start out with three plain white boards with only their sponsors on them
-
airbrushes should have to be unlocked
-
more wetsuits and board shorts for each surfer (why was this not included in ksps?)
-
classic/young/retro surfer option instead of personality suit (machado fro, fletcher long hair)
moves/physics
-
sim cheat
-
ability to sit on board
-
ability to paddle out from beach or boat
-
option to tone down airs and other attributes even more than handicap
-
tweaking of all maneuvers (just a little to achieve perfection)
-
surfer shouldn't automatically grab his rail on small front side barrels
-
square button should work as a power bottom turn (more speed for top turns)
-
power (square) backside bottom turn is currently not practical
-
ability to grab rails during floater
-
easier to surf on and around breaking curl (no more pop off)
-
more attributes (example: power)
-
an adjustable option for EACH attribute (much like thps)
-
should be a greater difference from 1 to10 (attributes)
-
should be more foot adjustments (move up in the barrel, after BIG aerial)
-
duck dives shouldn’t go down so deep
-
layback stance in barrel needs work (surfer's back should touch water)
-
allow more movement by the surfer inside the barrel
-
fine tune the L1 and R1 buttons inside the barrel
-
ability to readjust during floater
-
when begin a floater at top of wave, it should automatically start to break
-
inside the barrel it needs to be made easier to keep balance, but harder to stay in for long periods of time
-
noticeable difference in surfboard physics (guns, short boards, single fins should all ride considerably different)
-
should be more arm animation when the surfer tail slides or launches airs (back arm pointing up on slides for instance)
-
pumps (forward) should be broader, easier to gain speed with
-
ability to pump inside the barrel (when up button is pushed)
-
perfect the power button (square) bottom turn [should generate more speed for instance]
-
cheat to turn balance meter off
-
more barrel poses
-
more snap maneuvers (quick 180 tail slide for instance)
-
ability to cut underneath the wave after it closes out (another exit move)
-
improve air animations/physics
-
the gouge maneuver needs some work, currently doesn’t feel right
-
need to incorporate speed into the gameplay in terms of making barrels
-
fine tune the layback slide buttons, currently have to readjust hands, feels unnatural
-
more spray on turns
career/contest
-
asp world tour license, complete with a tour that keeps standings and statistics
-
include wct, wqs, and specialty events

-
ever thought of having original music composed for the videogame (aren’t Johnson and slater good friends?)
-
needs to be a shuffle option for the soundtrack
-
ability to change color/version or remove/add grip on each board (much like thps with grip tape)
-
ability to change fin color/version (single, three, various fcs’s: carroll’s, slater’s, occy’s, etc. again much like thps with wheels)
-
include different tail animations (menu states the board is swallow, but still looks square)

'black and white' trestles footage
