Climb (KZ), More Maps & More — SurfsUp News

New Game Mode: Climb (KZ)

[p align="start"]Inspired by the game-mode Kreedz Climbing (KZ) climb is a mix of surf, bhop, and parkour to climb and complete obstacle courses in the quickest time. This game mode features unique physics with a lower max movement speed, autohop disabled, and higher friction for more precise jumps.
