The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Shield Surf

As for actually doing it, it is fairly simple. First of all, you will need to equip a shield (any shield will do) and press the LT button. After you are done, press X to jump and while still airborne, press A to start surfing. There are, however, a few things that you will need to keep in mind:

  1. Desert, snow, etc. is ideal when it comes to surfing.
  2. If there is a downward slope, it will work really well.
  3. Uneven terrain, flat surfaces, etc. are a hit or miss.

One last thing: it is important that you attempt this with a shield that you do not need. Constantly surfing on a shield wears it down significantly (especially if you are on uneven terrain) which is why you should not attempt it on a shield that you plan on using later down the road.
