Production and video game

Surf Ninjas was filmed during the summer of 1992. Filming locations included Thailand and Hawaii. The second half of the film was shot first, and the crew moved to Los Angeles to film the first half. New Line Cinema and Sega of America established a financial relationship in which a Game Gear video game would be developed for the film.

Screenwriter Dan Gordon said that he wrote action sequences that would both suit the film and serve as a springboard for the video game. In the film, one of the lead characters is shown playing the Surf Ninjas video game on a Game Gear. The video game was released in August, before the film's release, and it was considered the first movie-based video game to precede the film itself.

Surf Ninjas video games were also released for the Amiga 1200 computer and CD32 console in 1994 by Flair Software/MicroValue.
