Learn how to master the Surfing Game in Mario Party Superstars! This guide covers all 23 Oho Balloons, optimal paths, and time-saving tips to achieve the best rewards.
From the East Beanbean beach, head east several screens to reach an island with a Save Album on it. Land here and talk to the guy to start the surfing mini-game. There is a second similar island to the south, but with no Save Album; if you end up there, simply go north 1 screen to get here.
Basically, you follow a path set by arrows in the water, where you will spot 23 Oho Balloons overhead. The objective is to follow the path going east, south, and west, hitting all 23 balloons, then ending at the second island in under a minute. It's fairly easy to do; just watch out for the explosives in the water so you don't get knocked around in the air, and try not to overshoot your jumps, as it's a pain to turn around constantly.
- 1There are 4 balloons in the first area, which you can get with single jumps to each.
- 2In the second east-going area, there are 3 balloons you get with single jumps, then 2 you can get in one jump since they're close enough. They're followed by 1 more before going to the third segment.
- 3After hitting the first balloon, take a sharp southeast turn and hit 2 southbound balloons, then another sharp southwest turn for 1 more.
- 4In the fourth area, jump to get the first balloon there, then jump over a barrel to get 3 in one shot. Up ahead, there are 2 more you can get in one jump; just make sure you jump when you're actually under the first one, and you should get them both.
- 5As for the final area, there are more barrels, so try and plot a straight path so you can hit the balloons, but not swerve around the barrels. After the single barrel, there are 2 more you can get like in the previous area with one jump. Ahead is the second island, where the course ends.
- Another good hint for gaining speed is when you jump and land, you'll experience a slight slowdown. Don't jump too quickly after landing, since those few moments of added boost can help you in the long run.
- Watch out for the explosives in the water so you don't get knocked around in the air.
- Try not to overshoot your jumps, as it's a pain to turn around constantly.
- When getting balloons in close proximity, try to get them in one jump if possible.
- When navigating the final area with barrels, plot a straight path to hit balloons without hitting barrels.
