What it takes to break a World Record in Surf

Показать описание

You want to become a World Record Holder in Counter Strike Surf? Just follow these instructions, play for a couple of thousand hours, be naturally talented and highly committed, embrace the hour-long grind, and there you go. Just do it another 200 times to become World #1.
At the example of William on surf_tendies (made by @granis ), I show you what it took him to break the very competitive record on one of the most popular maps in the game map pool.

Little corrections:
-nesquik s2 skip was actually repeated by Levi
-.x came from bhop, not csgo surf
-gigapede b4 and medley b4 are considered even a bit harder than fiellu b4 nowadays
-hope b1 was repeated by exper

Thanks to William @7777wi for taking the time to share his story, process and mindset.
Thanks to P1tah @p1tah for clearing up his time history on the map.

Thanks for watching.

This has to be the best the best source movement related video I have ever seen, and I am not even a surf player.

19:20 And then, Hefest.. I mean.. William got this run!

This video really feels like the type of Videos Wirtual has done a lot for Trackmania, but for surf, and I really like that!

I started surfing on KSF 1 year ago this week, I grinded hard to get where I am now. Throughout my journey as a surfer so far, I would slowly realize with each stretch of time where I would improve, and improve, and keep improving in every facet as a surfer, going from a complete noob to a T2 surfer, then from a T2 to T3, to T4, then to T5, and now T6... that THIS is genuinely an insane video game. It may be the hardest game I know of. And it's just like you say early on in the video: You THINK you're getting really good at the game after a while, only to realize that you're still just dogshit at the game compared to any surfer who is even remotely at the top of the skill pool. The skill ceiling in surf is astronomical, it takes a massive amount of effort to consistently become even just a Group 1- Group 2 surfer. So yes, I do appreciate how immense of a task it is to get a WR, it takes years to reach that level for most people.

These lines make a hell of a difference when trying to understand the routing

I find it interesting that practising from back to front is a valued strategy here. I'm a classical musician and this is one of the most valuable tecniques for getting pieces ready for performance. While working on interpretation and technique you just practise whatever still needs work, but in the end you'll have to perform everything back to back. That's when we also use this approach and it is very effective (but of course also requires great patience as this doesn't include the beautiful developments in the piece and can thus be quite unsatisfying from a musical perspective ^^).

I don’t usually comment on videos, but man… this video deserves everything I can do to help boost it in the algorithm! Astounding video, incredible insight, story-telling, editing and thoroughness! The Wirtual of Surf!

Normally these kinds of videos (sometimes overly so) rely on music, pretty visuals and editing to be entertaining.
I was surprised halfway through that there was no music, but I was still interested.

By the end, I applaud how well done this is in setting up the difficulty and all the context, explaining everything you need to know and getting to it.
Cutting down the dramatics and cinematics for just a good story is def a breath of fresh air, I hope you do well :)

14:39 "crazy end though" LMAO, love it.

I never thought the amount of precision came to counting u/s in the single digits ontop of being only a few units away from the ground or walls as someone who's only played surf very casually. Great visualisation, explanations, and story telling!

This video feels like the Wirtual of surf. I would watch more videos like this even though i only play bhop and not surf, also was surprised to see that .x is not only one of the best bhoppers in the world but also insane at surf.

bajbson

hell yea, watching this whole straight away

zRhynoo

thank you for showcasing just how in depth people go with surf

iantakenotes

Most underrated youtuber on the planet. How did you get those paths for the records? Did you write the code yourself? This video is next level. I would LOVE more like this on some harder maps.

Vartazian

the best surf content creator! Absolutely love these videos!

Nnordbergg

Please make more of these! As a long time surfer myself the community needs more technical content to help inspire more skill surfers

Fantastic editing and technical breakdown!
