    description
    *Surf* exists under the Bensa name in two builds; this is the single-player [[technology-generation:solid-state]] one, made as circuit boards began to replace relays in Italian pinball, alongside an [[technology-generation:electromechanical]] counterpart catalogued as *[[model:surf]]*. The other Bensa tables that arcade-museum.com records — Big Brave, KnoKOut, Space Time and Wild Boy — are electromechanical builds of the mid-1970s,[1] and, as with the EM Surf, this [[theme:surfing]] game's attribution to the [[location:italy/mi/milan]] maker rests on the identification made by the collector Thierry Delisle.[2]

    Seems like in Italy in the 70s a few different companies started to copy a few of the name brand pinballs. Nearly an exact copy except all the Italy ones were 1 player not two our four player.
