Star 1: Surfing 101

Talk to the big penguin, who will enter you into a race, on the back of a ray. In this race there are no other participants, and you don't even need to beat a particular time on the clock to gain the Star. You just need to get round the course without falling off.

To control the ray, press A to accelerate, and twist the Wii Remote left and right to steer. You don't use the Nunchuk at all. At least on your first go, don't be tempted to hold down A all the time, especially for the corners.

When you make it to the finish line, the big penguin will present you with a 'gold star', which is actually one of the Power Stars. Collect it from the podium.
