Surf's Way Up is a Duel minigame in Mario Party 8.
Overview[edit]
The opening shows each player riding their jetboard down a path in outer space, with Earth visible in the background.
Players try to go through colored circular goals with different point values, though the goals depicting a Bowser emblem drop them down to zero instantly. The player with the most points by the end wins, though if both end with the same number, it is a tie.
Test for the Best has a single-player variety where points are earned through the same means while avoiding the Bowser goals. The scores necessary to earn a certain point total are as follows:
| Grade | Points earned | Required score | Title |
|---|---|---|---|
| A+ | 1,000 | 800 points | Cosmic Kahuna |
| A | 900 | 680 points | Stellar Surfer |
| B | 800 | 560 points | Wave Maker |
| C | 700 | 440 points | Surfin' Sophomore |
| D | 600 | 320 points | Surfin' Neophyte |
| F | 0 | N/A | Wipeout Kid |
In the ending, the winning and losing players do their respective animations as the former launches off-screen, but in the case of a tie, both do their losing animations.
Controls[edit]
- Wii Remote: Move
- Buttons
/ 
– Boost

- If one of the veteran playable characters wins, they will perform one of their secondary victory animations from the GameCube-era 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.
