The Hylian Shield is one of the absolutely best shields in the game for [[shield surfing]] due to its high durability. Provided it's not used for anything else, and taking into consideration its average friction rate (1/4 durability point/sec) and its durability (800), the shield can be used more than 53 minutes of surfing without breaking.
