Surfer Dudes Classics Wave Powered Mini-Surfer and Surfboard Toy - Trestles Tim

Our kids saw one of these at the beach a few years ago and were fascinated by it, so I finally remembered to buy one before our most recent beach trip. All three of our kids (ages 5, 8, and 11) took turns playing with it throughout the day. It kept them entertained on and off between swimming and other beach activities. There is a bit of a learning curve when it comes to throwing it just right so that it rides the waves and comes back to you. Once you figure out the angle and timing, though, it really does surf back toward you, which is pretty cool to watch. **What we liked:** * Fun and active beach activity * Works well for a range of ages * Unique toy that keeps kids engaged * Very satisfying once you learn the throw technique **Overall:** A really fun beach toy that gets kids moving and experimenting with how to throw it. Once you get the hang of it, watching it surf back toward you never gets old. Great addition to beach days.

Easy to sssemble. Just be aware that if there’s a reasonably strong wind causing surf to move sideways (as opposed to coming straight at you), you will be walking down the beach to retrieve your dude. Otherwise, they are well made and great fun for kids and adults alike!

Great toy. Very durable and easy to use.

The kids absolutely loved theses. They worked exactly as advertised and kept the kids busy for hours!!

Super cute and easy to use. A beach favorite that’s always packet for the pool or the beach

This Surfing toy was easy to assemble based on the directions it provided. We chose surfing Olivia and she is fun to have at the beach. It kept my daughters of ages 6 and 8 entertained, but I’m sure it would be entertaining for all ages. We discovered that if you throw it into a crashing wave, it comes back nicely. However, if you don’t throw it where a crashing waves is, then it has a hard time or slower time coming back to shore.

This was a BIG hit with my grandchildren, ages 2 1/2 - 7, boys and girls, plus their Daddy’s loved them too! Great quality and so much fun! Well worth the price!

I just got back from the beach with my 3 sons aging from 3 to 7. They loved this toy! They really enjoyed watching the surfer ride the waves while we were out there.
