Even though it is not long enough there are a few places on the new island that lets you drift for a bit to ascend or descend a building inner workings. My favorite happen to be the parking garage, yes it is very short, just 3 or 4 floors, but still funny.
Ofcourse I am still driving the P12, my secret weapon (It jumped better than the dustorm). I got on the island yesturday for the first time since I finally got my network back up and running. Anyways, I was chased by a few people who obviously knew the island very well, and I was surprised how easy it was to get them off of my trail going up the buildings structure while taking them down without interruptting my drift. Then I lost a few guys while jumpging off a smaller ramp, onto the roof of another building and then drifting down that path and came out on another street. Since this was my first time on the island, I was impressed how Criterion thought of this exact scenario, as I am sure I am not the only person to have done this before. Soon after that, I was being chased again...from now on I will record more on video these first few days on Big Surf Island, as I have been doing with Paradise City and Burnout 3 Takedown.
Even though the island is "small", there is still enough room to cause alot of mental damage to burners that want to cause damage to you.
