Kelly Slater's Pro Surfer takes the player on a global surfing adventure to ride some of the world's most famous beaches. With an intuitive control scheme similar to other Activision O2 brand games, it's easy to dive into the game and catch some waves.
The game features three main modes: Championship, Challenge, Drop In, and Multiplayer. In Championship mode, the player competes against eight other surfers in a series of twelve stages, with three heats per stage. The top three surfers at each stage advance to the next round. In Challenge mode, players can choose a surfer and complete challenges at various beaches around the world. Drop In allows for instant action surfing, where players can simply go out and catch waves without any specific objectives. Multiplayer mode enables two players to compete against each other using a Link Cable.
The game features an impressive cast of professional surfers, including Kelly Slater, Lisa Andersen, Tom Carroll, Tom Curren, Nathan Fletcher, Donavon Frankenreiter, Bruce Irons, Rob Machado, Kalani Robb, and several secret characters. The game also includes a wide range of iconic beaches, such as Sebastian, Trestles, Mavericks, Waimea Bay, Jaws, Pipeline, Teahupoo, Bells, Curren's Point, Kirra, G-Land, J-Bay, Mundaka, Cortez Bank, and more.
