Line 6 ⟶ 5:
''This glitch is not to be confused with other surfing glitches such as the [[Surf through Elite Four door glitch]].''
 
The term '''Surf on land''' refers tois a miscellaneous [[glitch]] only existing in the Japanese versions of [[bp:Pokémon Ruby|Pokémon Ruby]] and [[bp:Pokémon Sapphire|Sapphire]].
 
When used correctly, the game will perform the move [[bp:Surf (move)|Surf]] when the player is not facing a surface of water. As a result, the player may surf on land until he or she uses the move [[bp:Fly (move)|Fly]] or [[bp:Teleport (move)|Teleport]], uses the move surf again on an actual surface of water, or enters a building.
 
==Explanation==
The cause may be caused by the game momentarily considering the player as facing up or down after performing the bunny hop.
 
This [[glitch]] exploits the "bunny-hop" feature of the [[bp:Acro Bike|Acro Bike]]. When the player is facing a certain direction and jumps upwards or downwards the game will temporarily (for a fractional amount of time) take the player's direction as facing upwards or downwards, rather than left or right. Although this may be considered as a relatively minor [[Abuse of processing speed|exploit of the game's processing speed]], if the player performs a "bunny-hop" towards a surface of water in the original direction he or she may quickly press the A button to receive the 'Would you like to SURF?' message and select the 'YES' option to surf on land.
 
==Method==
Line 22 ⟶ 20:
#The player should use the right button on the directional pad to face eastwards.
#If the player performs a bunny-hop downwards and immediately presses the A-button, he or she may receive the 'Would you like to SURF?' message.
