Surf's Hardest Shortcuts (TAS)

A compilation of 66t surf shortcuts that are possible but have not yet been completed, performed with tool assistance on Counter-Strike: Source.
/ bamtna
/ discord
The label at 19:30 is wrong, it should read 29.16 (-1.439). If a map isn't labeled with a time, it's because I didn't TAS the whole map.
This video took a lot of work, and some shortcuts were not featured because I got burned out checking them all. To see more information about the shortcuts, use this sheet:
docs.google.co...
In order to keep the video focused on the shortcuts, I cut short some clips that I didn't want to TAS the whole map for, or that I had already featured on my channel in separate videos.
Performed on CSS with the following settings:
tickrate 66
sv_airaccelerate 150
Music:
0:01 Whitewildbear - Rue
4:20 Vesky - Alive
8:20 Sloati, Rusez1 - Confusion Waves
12:00 Zyphyr - Alai
16:00 Zyphyr - When We Were Together
18:10 Oleg Byonic - Wait for You

[@Vartazian360]

What an absolutely killer video. Those transitions dude. Rewatched so many parts just to see the transitions. Alot of these skips I never even heard of

[@movetanner]

Holy shit you're still alive? We used to play codjumper together like 8 years ago

[@rjkessler]

​@@movetanner wow, you're still alive?

[@movetanner]

@@rjkessler is that a threat

[@marblesurfs]

Finally a list and video of skips to try

[@MrJkljkljkljkljkl]

A 24 minute video of skips only tucks can do is what this should be called

[@HoboSteve2]

[@blizzero96]

[@mollyandciroc]

Insane video, intro and editing is on another level. Great stuff

[@warble]

Stunning video

[@zRhynoo]

[@playjack14]

Absolutely no words for this, the best surf video ever made hands down.

[@MaxKapBF2142]

What's with that video of that t5 map with these ultra smooth surfing and music?

[@ethhics]

I was so hyped for this, great to see it is finally out, even if I couldn't contribute to it. Nice job!

[@Fizu98]

this man is an artist

[@danny234555]

fantastic montage and great editing. I loved it. My jaw dropped wide open for most of the skips. truly incredible

[@Rulldar]

Great work as usual, but this has to be the most hyped video and u killed it! also love the intro, is it ai generated?

[@bamtna]

thanks rulldar
yeah i made it using dall-e, there's another comment somewhere here explaining the process

[@jarrare]

this video encapsulates everything surf is about, simply amazing stuff

[@kiranparthasarathy872]

it's crazy that it's been over a year since this came out, i remember watching it day one and i still watch it every know and then. killer video wp

[@Lowlita]

What an amazing video! I don't know most of these maps but the skips look insane, the transitions look awesome and I LOVE the music choices as always. Great work!

[@phxnklxrd7358]

I always watch surf when too many things are going on in my head, when missing my partner for instance. This calmed me down a lot, thank you for that! Great Surfs and great music. Keep up the good work man. I appreaciate your content

[@hollyanne12345ful]

Missing bae that’s cringe dude

[@xkejj]

I really enjoyed your Batman's Counter Strike Source Tool Assisted Surf video! The editing was amazing and the tricks you were able to pull off were incredible. I was very impressed with the skill and creativity showcased in the video. Keep up the great work!

[@prettyintense45]

I think we all have thought about some of these skips in the back of our minds but to see them done is something else entirely.Great video

[@von...]

holy shit dude, this is easily the highest quality TAS showcase I have ever seen

[@addaddgame7691]

Yes it is a work of art for his 3 min bhop run I heard it took him 18 hours to tas I can’t imagine how long this took

[@qyuetx]

This is so satisfying to watch, great editing, great shortcuts, thanks batman.

[@floppa24]

Every single aspect of this video is just marvellous.

[@MrGustalia]

Such a good Video, nice editing, good music, perfect surf

[@julien24_]

absolutely unreal video man great stuff

[@Catz1010]

Incredible stuff batman

[@bamtna]

yes it's DALL-E 2
copypaste explanation i typed on discord:
dall-e has a feature that can paint transparent parts of an image you upload
so i made that intro by progressively zooming out and having it paint the edges of the previous image
think it was like 42? frames total, then upscaled them with gigapixel and did the zooming in after effects

[@forlackofawetterbird]

@@bamtna thats cool as heck

[@noir9942]

this is a crazy piece of art. so nice to see what is actually possible

[@SowbugMori]

Wow.... That intro is absolutely incredible!! Sick runs!

[@thelazyanalyst3723]

[@haydz6626]

Cool ass video my guy. Didn't even know that surf TAS's exist lol

[@charlesbeverly7960]

Why is this edited so well?

[@eskolzz]

What did you do to datamosh if I may ask?

[@王涵-s1f]

Wonderful job! How do you made the transition?

[@bamtna]

the transitions you're probably talking about were made using datamoshing, though others include masks, chroma keys, luma fades, etc.

[@TheSoca123]

i don't have motion sickness but omg this editing

[@vickhj6333]

such great song choices :D

[@Oui_SURFING]

Amazing video, so much work put into it. How long did the project take roughly?

[@bamtna]

i started the project almost 2 months ago

[@umbra7859]

That intro went so hard

[@garyberry7568]

can someone explain how at 12:01 the player bunny hopped once, then slid up on the ground? That's the ground, not even a ramp, how is that allowed?
Whenever I tried to bhop in a surf I just lose all my speed...

[@obsiPog]

its that map thats made like that :) you can bhop where auto bhop is enabled only

[@pavko9759]

Intro is jawdropping

[@henriblob8163]
