There are three factors that affect shield surfing, namely: | There are three factors that affect shield surfing, namely: | ||

Downward slopes will cause acceleration based on gravity and forward momentum, flat surfaces will cause deceleration and upward slopes will make Link stop. | |||
*'''The friction of the surface:''' Low friction terrains cause Link to accelerate quicker, while high friction will cause Link to grind or altogether stop. Friction depends on the terrain, the weather and the shield Link's using. It's important to understand that '''friction does not produce damage on the shield, as it only deals with the shield's overall speed'''. | *'''The friction of the surface:''' Low friction terrains cause Link to accelerate quicker, while high friction will cause Link to grind or altogether stop.
