Ladies and gentlemen, we've got ourselves a Wirtual of CS Surf, and I love it.

I knew this style of video essay reminded me of someone!

[@Idkwhattoputhere...306]

Yep, went to check this out because i Saw him in wirtuals main account

[@alainschuster5819]

Im really happy that 10 years after i surfed on ksf for many years, there are many new people joining. I did not know of any of these legends until recenlty. During my time the legends were Morning Sinsa, Habitat, Yamaan, Niyhm etc.. That makes me quite happy. And quite sad because I quitted dur to being banned for something stupid. (Helped a player to reach expert so I surfed on his acc, I had no clue this was illegal back in the days bc i was very young). But yeah it makes me quite happy to see that surfing is still doing well and that a lot of prodegies are still joining! - boooo (from ksf records compilation #5)

[@oOHow2PlayOo]

i really appreciate caff's work on stability and growth of the surf community. ive been watching the tourneys multiple times. hes a great surfer and as far as i was able to get known to him, hes a great person as well.

[@grouchyfluff]

I like the format of this video. i thought the brief little intros/explanations about the gamemode, community, and how to get started/play the game were done nicely. They flowed well and were intuitively integrated to introduce relevant concepts throughout. However, massive missed opportunity to add 12 seconds and make the length 13:37

[@Repster]

ty!!

[@darkmatter69420]

Stuff like this makes me really love this community. There's so much support for one another. it's ridiculous. I appreciate you Repster!

[@Litepaw]

When i was 15 (08-09-ish) i used to be a world-class surfer in CS source :( surf velocity never forget. It's cool to see the scene is still alive and kicking stronger than ever ❤️❤️

[@Litepaw]

.. I think I might even have some old demos. Damn, now I have to go take a look on my old ass hard drive 😂

[@Repster]

hey! I actually just made contact with copy-mark, and a couple months ago did an interview with morning and hab. I might have some questions for ya about velocity if you're willing

[@Litepaw]

@@Repster @RepsterSurf Ayyy, copy-mark! respect ✊ I'm not sure, it's been a looong time. I only remember tiny bits and pieces here and there. I remember being active around the time when someone created a short-lived clan/group called surf revolution(s?) to protest something that SV apparently did wrong. I joined rev first, then got into SV. But idk, I didn't really care about all that clan politics stuff, i just simply loved to surf. The clout from being a part of velocity and the dopamine haze from finishing really hard maps was my jam. Shame no one really kept track of world records on a larger scale back then. I would've really loved to chase WR on surf_ny_platinum or surf_ny_advance. It really annoys me that i remember so little about that time 💀 i just remember having the time of my life. But someone i knew back then might remember more. He became really active around the time i quit. Haven't talked to him in years, but i remember he went by the name miggo or miggo13. I think he has a youtube channel with loads of surf videos from around that time, might be worth asking? 👀 At least a few years ago he was still active on that channel. If you do get in contact, tell him Pure said hi 😂

[@freitagder13te]

Idk how YT decided to show me this vid 😂 for me it's kinda the same but still a different story: I came to love to surf in CSS and spent sooo much time there at the same time and age as you. I remember my brothers making fun of me. I surfed everything, was never an talent but I was utterly in love with surf-rpg at some time (maybe 2005-2007?) and remember that the community there was just amazing. This felt like really unique game and I always dreamt of a game of its own for rpg-surf. And then all of a sudden the rpg-ranked-surf community got destroyed bc of servers allowing instant rank ups and nobody was trying to play serious anymore: Bottom line? I think I never experienced the same joy in Games as this early surf time, trying to surf on advanced maps or just go in rpg maps and freeze stab noobs all day long ❤

[@morningshabitat]

great video. as someone thats been surfing since 2012 its very nice to see this sort of recognition and attention brought to the gamemode we've all come to enjoy.

[@fr3my]

really good video, felt like I was watching one of those trackmania videos with millions of views, keep doing what you're doing cause I just got recommend this video you might blow up

[@Happi___]

As someone who usually surfs t1-t3 to chill, I can really appreciate the level of effort it takes to get *that* many WRs on maps that difficult. Caff is a beast.

[@loafe4302]

Great video. It is always so nice to watch videos on movement games / movement mods because of their storied pasts. You can only hope for videos on lesser known mods like kz or tf2 jump or even conc, but to see any sort of content for movement mods is fantastic

[@benjisurf]

perfect balance of concise explanation and interesting storytelling keep it up

[@IvanMiata]

Amazing video! Haven’t surfed since mid 2017 but this just randomly popped up in my feed and gives me the itch again!

[@heroclix0rz]

Man I remember learning to surf back in 1.6 on surf_egypt. Glad to see this game mode is still going strong.

Absolutely incredible video. Both enjoyable and high quality

amazing video man. Super indepth and very interesting from start to finish

Great upload. I didn’t know surf was still such a big part of the game. Stopped surfing in 2012-2013. But had been surfing all of the mid 00s

Caff is absolutely the greatest current player in surf. I'm probably just a boomer, however, but I don't think I'll ever be able to consider anybody other than Sinsa the GOAT.

[@Cafff]

could consider a few the goat its just about the era you played in so I respect it

I remember surfing on CS:S and building my own surf maps... It's crazy that the "best" surfer joined during the prime of csgo, and not source.

[@randymagnum8178]

Cool video about a community I know almost nothing about. Watching the footage I was most impressed with the maps ( i cannot really tell what makes a surfer good) . Could be an interesting video about who comes up with all these maps , there most be some kind of science how to build a map that allows for skilled players to shine.

Cool video! I never got into skill surf as much, but did so much combat surf throughout 2015-2017 on various Aussie servers. Do you plan to make any more vids on combat surf in the future?

In all honesty I am totally clueless when it comes to combat surf. I'd need to learn a lot more (and see greater demand for csurf content)

[@SnipeGenetix]

Thank you for documenting these achievements. I would argue that surfing is as mechanically challenging as Rocket League, and has taken hundreds of hours of my time. It was always amazing to watch WR’s with the chill music goin in the background. Hopefully surf can be restored to its former glory in CS2.

never heard of Caff won't lie, surfed on KZG from 2017 onwards, honestly I think Levi has a lot of popularity simply because he holds SR's on a lot of the most played maps on KZG, that's the only reason I knew about him anyways.

Cant believe he ended up becoming world class.

[@KaiLily]

I used to surf a lot from 2012-2015, sadly it seems to have kinda died out. There was always KSF on source, then there was Opium Gaming on CS:GO which died and people switched to ksf which unfortunately kind of died on CSGO as well. Hopefully in CS2 surfing can maybe return to glory.
