Finally I can live out my surfing bird fantasies. Rising Board is a surfing game where you are a bird. You have to do tricks, collect sun points and not crash into bits of land that inconsiderately jut out all over the sea. Stages are seemingly randomly generated, and range from sunny Hawai'i-esque to gloomy grey north to massive wave special stages. Use your sun points to upgrade and unlock new boards, including the SUPER fast jet board, and then hold on for the ride.

Most tricks are easy to pull off, although I do find the front/back lateral board spinning ones difficult. I think it's the air-time I'm lacking in that respect though.

Well worth the $2.99 (plus tax), nice use of subtle 3D depth and lots of challenge. Two fins up from me.
