| __NOTOC__
| |
| ==Introduction==
| |
| The two players find themselves standing on jetboards hovering over a short road-like expanse. When they reach the end of the expanse, the players are surfing openly through outer space. In the background, [[Earth]] can be seen.

| The goal is to go through colored circular goals with different [[point]] values. However, the player must watch out for the [[Bowser]] goals with his [[emblem]] shown on them, or else their score instantly drops to zero. Whoever has more points at the end of the minigame wins. If both players have the same number of points, the minigame ends in a tie. | | The [[player]]s find themselves on jetboards, flying through outer space. Their goal is to collect discs with points on them, and whoever has the most points worth of discs wins. However, they must watch out for [[Bowser]]'s discs, or else their score will drop to zero. |
| | |
| ==Ending==
| |
| The winning player performs their victory pose on their jetboard and launches far ahead of the losing player and out of sight, while the losing player does their losing pose on their jetboard behind them. If the minigame ends in a tie, both players will perform their losing poses and the jetboards will not speed ahead.
| |
| | |
| ==Test for the Best==
| |
| In Test for the Best, the player plays alone in this minigame and must go through as many circular point goals as possible, avoiding the Bowser goals, to earn as many points as possible. The scores required to earn a certain point total are as follows:

| *If one of the veteran playable characters wins, they will perform one of their secondary victory animations from the [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]]-era ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' games (with [[Mario]]'s and [[Luigi]]'s being slightly different) instead of the new ones they received in this game. [[Blooper]] and [[Hammer Bro]] will perform their own new secondary victory animations as opposed to their normal ones. This is also the case in [[Thrash 'n' Crash]]. | | *This mini-game's title is a pun off the popular phrase "Surf's Up" |
