There was also an area where you had to do the same thing with an enemy vehicle, and another place you had to ride on an enemy projectile across a large body of water.

* With ''KirbyEpicYarn'' you can do this with almost all of the enemies as very few have collision damage which is very handy for getting to higher platforms. You also ride on a dinosaur's head to get across a strong current river.

* An interesting (but largely useless) trick in the ''Halo'' games was the ability to "surf" on top of Sentinels. This ability had a practical use when it was applied to vehicles or allies. It's easiest to preform the Sentinel version on levels where they are friendly, such as the Arc on Halo 3 (immediately before you open the door for the Marines, but just before the Scarab battle).
