EDIT: found it. its Surf Planet. and ive been searching all kinds of sites for a WORKING Rom for MAME. all the surtplnt.zip files i download then put into the rom folders in MAME dont work. theres missing files.



i used to play this snowboarding arcade game at the skating rink a long time ago when i was like 12 or 13, but i forgot the name of the game and ive been using all search engines and i cant seem to find it. heres some information about it

i think it might have "planet" in the name

there were no buttons when you played, just a joystick.

there were 4 or 5 characters you could choose from and 1 of them was in an orange jumpsuit.

its in 2nd person *your looking at your character from about 20 feet camera angle, and its 3D*

and you pickup wax for your board as you go through the lvls.

and there was a helecopter you jumped out of.



if someone could find this game, that would be awesome. its just been so long. =D
