Surfimon (サーフィモン), also known as Surfymon, is an Ultimate-level Cyborg Digimon with a Vaccine attribute in the Digimon franchise. Its design is inspired by a surfing shark and a hammerhead shark-like surfboard. Despite being an aquatic Digimon, it has been modified to move quickly on land. Surfimon has a lone-wolf personality, possesses great pride, and dislikes grouping like fish. Its special moves include 'Barrier Blade,' where it spins the spikes on its body like a chainsaw for offense and defense, and 'Lightning Cutter,' using a hoverboard called 'Dash Slider' projected from its third eye to accelerate to light speed for a charging attack. Surfimon debuted as a winning entry in the Original Digimon Super Entry Contest in 2007, and was re-illustrated by Takeshi Okano, the illustrator for 'Digimon Next.' It has appeared in various Digimon games like 'Digimon Collectors' and has also been featured in trading card games.
