1. FOOTNOTE:
Okay, this FAQ is designed to help you beat the game and get 95% of all the
secrets in Mat Hoffman's new game. I hope you enjoy it and it makes it
easier for you. I have gotten a few notes that my descriptions for locations
of items were hard to understand, but right now I don't feel like changing
them. Bear with me. Thanks.
===============================================================
2. LEGAL MATTER: Sorry to have to bother you all, but there are despicable
people out there who will take your work and call it their own. Do not take
this guide and post it on any other site besides gamefaqs.com; I have grown
wary of all other sites. Do not take this guide and call it your own, it is
my (Orca782)'s work and it always will be. It is protected by International
Copyright laws, and taking it is a violation.
===============================================================
3. CONTROLS:
Like every good video game, this one needs controls, and you need to know
them. Here they are.
TRIANGLE: Cancel. Grinds if used while moving parallel to a rail, plants if
moving perpendicular to a halfpipe edge or rail, and allows you to 'Wallride'
if moving near parallel to a wall, and a 'Foot Plant' if moving perpendicular
to a wall.
CIRCLE: Used in grab tricks, in some specials, and in some manual additions.
Hold it or just tap it for aerial tricks, do it in quick succession with
other buttons while in a manual.
X: Confirm. Traditional to Activision games, hold this down to ride at
cruising speed, and let go of it to bunny-hop. Press Up Up X to 'Bronco
Hop.'
SQUARE: Used in quick tricks, some specials, and some manual additions. In
quick tricks either tap or hold it, in manuals use it in quick succession
with the directional buttons.
D-PAD: Moves your rider, as well as balancing while in manuals, stalls and
grinds. Also used to do moves. Tap it to do moves. Hold down to brake, and
up to go faster.
R1: Used to rotate right quickly in the air, or to powerslide. To rotate,
hold it down. To powerslide, hold it down and hold down while on the ground.
L1: Same as R1, except you rotate left, or powerslide left.
R2: Used to 'Tweak' tricks. Hold it and tap the directional buttons during
any trick for a tweak.
L2: Primarily used in manuals. Hold it down while on the ground, and it will
cancel any jumps, so you can let go of X and not jump. It will allow you to
start a manual by pressing this and then up down, etc. You can switch manual
types while holding this, (ex: hold L2, press up down, go into manual, then
press down up and you'll switch to a nose manual without jumping).
Select: Nothing (yet).
Start: Confirm/Menu.

5. TRICKS
(note: These are the tricks that are the same for all riders. The specials
will be at the end. The tricks will have a point value, which is their base
value without multipliers or holds, and the tricks that can be held for more
points will have a + sign next to their points. There are a few rare tricks
that cannot be modified (using R2) and those will be noted as such. Some
tricks cannot be modified for legs, such as the 'Barhop', and others for
hands, but they can be modified for the other, in this case, hands. I will
not note these.)

Flip Flop: Left-Left Square
Points: 1100
Front Flip: Down-Down Square
Points: 1700
(note: most points for base trick in game)
----------------------------------------
GRINDS (TRIANGLE TRICKS)
----------------------------------------
(note: grinds start at 0 and go up in points, hence no base point value.
The only difference is that some go up faster than others. To do a grind,
you have to be fairly parallel to a rail and jump and hold the command. Then
just hold triangle, and balance with left and right).
Toothpick: Up and Triangle
Icepick: Down and Triangle
Smith: Left and Triangle
Feeble: Right and Triangle
Double Peg: Up Right and Triangle
(note: this is the default grind, simply pressing triangle at a rail will do
this).
Rodeo: Up Left and Triangle
Magic Carpet: Down Right and Triangle
Sprocket: Down Left and Triangle
---------------------------------------
STALLS (TRIANGLE TRICKS)
---------------------------------------
(note: to perform a stall ride up a half pipe at a fairly perpendicular path,
and hold the correct arrow and triangle. Balance with up and down. These
tricks may have a base value, but they start to increase the instant you
start the trick, so I believe these too start at 0, but go up much faster
than grinds)
X-Up Toothpick: Down and Triangle
Smith: Left and Triangle
Cliffhanger: Right and Triangle
Fufanu: Up and Triangle
Rock'n'Roll: Up Left and Triangle
Barspin Icepick: Up Right and Triangle
(note: this is the default stall, simply pressing triangle with no direction
will do this trick).
Split Decade: Down Right and Triangle
Tailwhip Canadian Icepick: Down Left and Triangle
-------------------------------------------
MANUALS (UP DOWN TRICKS)
-------------------------------------------
(note: manuals are done with a combination of up and down before you hit the
ground after a jump. They can be done from the ground by holding L2. You
can also input different manual commands while holding L2 to change manuals
without jumping. Balance with up and down).
Manual: Up Down
Points: 100+
Nose Manual: Down Up
Points: 100+
Rear Peg Stand: Down Down Up
Points: 250+
Front Peg Stand: Up Up Down
Points: 250+
Bridge: Up Up Up
Points: 500+
(note: you can only do a bridge while you have a special bar. You can hold
it past when you lose your special bar, but not start a new one).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
MANUAL ADDITIONS (SQUARE AND CIRCLE TRICKS)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
(note: these tricks can be done while in the correct manual, by pressing the
correct directions then square or circle. Since the points only add to the
manual, I can only assume that each will add points more quickly, and add a 1
to multipliers, and a .5 each subsequent time in the same combo).

a few points).
Bronco Hop: Up Up X
Points: 50
-------------------------------
TWEAKS (R2 TRICKS)
-------------------------------
(note: tweaks can be done to most any trick, except those like 1 handed no
footer candybar. Those are already tweaked. To perform these, during an
aerial trick, hold the trick button, example circle, and while holding
circle, hit R2 and your selected direction. For fast air tricks like a flip,
that can't be held, just do the trick, then quickly hit R2 and your
direction. For Manuals, Stalls and Grinds, just hit R2 while balancing the
trick and you'll tweak the selected move in).
1 footer: Down and R2
No footer: Right and R2
1 hander: Up and R2
No hander: Left and R2
Half'n'Half: Left Down R2, or Left Up R2, or Right Up R2, or Right Down R2
++++++++++++
5.1 SPECIALS
++++++++++++
(note: each character has 3 specials. Some are unique, most are not. These
are multi button commands (left right circle; ex) so it takes a bit of time
to do them. However, they will give you tons of points, so do them as often
as possible with a special bar. Most can be tweaked, some cannot. I found
these all out on my own, which took a hella long time. Oh well, hope you're
appreciative).

6. LEVEL GUIDES
---------------------
I will now outline to the best of my ability how to complete every goal for
each level. Given some time I will try to list all the gaps and where they
are also. I will also note where each level's CD is, and where any other
secrets are. I will not finish this on this version however, so wait for
version 1.0 of this FAQ to come out. Each level has 3 sets of goals,
Amateur, Semi-Pro and Pro. They will give you 50, 100 and 150 points
respectively, which is 300 total. Each set of goals has a trick point
requirement, and I will only list hints to do this on this last set, the Pro
Goals. This way if you can complete the pro challenge, of course you can get
the first two amounts easily. I cannot however tell you exactly how to get
the points, I'll just tip you off.
OKLAHOMA CITY, OK
*********************
Points needed to Unlock: 0
Secrets: 5
Gaps: 22
AMATEUR GOALS:
--------------------------
Unlock the Warehouse:
In front of your starting location is a quarter pipe slightly to the right.
Ride up it, and on the wall is a red button. Ride over to it and the
warehouse opens.
Get 5 Gas Cans for the Bus:
There is 1 gas can right off the first jump in front of where you start.
There is 1 gas can right in front of the start, on a half-pipe to the right.
There is 1 gas can in the pool to the front left of where you start.
There is 1 gas can in the Warehouse, straight in from the entrance on a
quarter pipe.
There is 1 gas can on a quarter pipe near the back of the warehouse.
Get the Bus Key:
The jump in front of your starting position will put you on a light fixture
if you jump slightly right. Grind this fixture to the key.
Score 20,000 Points
SEMI-PRO GOALS:
-------------------------
Knock over the Toolboxes:
1 toolbox is at the far back left of where you start in the room.
1 toolbox is behind you and to the right from where you start.
1 toolbox is on a quarter pipe on the wall right as you enter the warehouse.
1 toolbox is on the ground straight and right of the entrance to the
warehouse.
1 toolbox is at the far back left of the warehouse from its entrance.
Manual to Eggbeater:
Simply go into a manual (up down) and then press left circle while balancing.
Manual the Crooked Bench:
The Crooked Bench is behind and below your start position. Go to it, line it
up, and jump on it and manual to the end.
Score 40,000 Points
PRO GOALS:
----------------
Set off the Fire Alarms:
1 alarm is reached by jumping on the light fixture the key was on (in front
of the start), grinding to the end, jumping to grind on the red rail, and
grinding to it.
1 alarm is in the warehouse on the wall to the left of the entrance. Get on
top of the quarter pipe, near the green machinery. Go to the back of the
warehouse, turn around, get up some speed and jump off of the green machine's
small ramp. Wall ride the wall, and jump. Land and grind on the wall to the
alarm.
1 alarm is above a half pipe at the rear of the warehouse, on the left of the
machine belt.
1 alarm is reached by getting on top of the quarter pipe to the right of the
entrance to the warehouse, and going up the ramps to grind on the yellow
rail.
1 alarm is reached by going up the quarter pipe immediately to the right of
the entrance. Once you've lowered the ramp (see secrets below) you can ride
up that to the final alarm.
Land a Perfect 360 Nothing over Gap One:
Gap one is shown to you in the intro (the goals) and it is the jump to the
right of where you start. It is from on small ramp, over the grind rail, to
the opposite side. It is parallel to where you start. With the auto
rotation function in this game, this is a bit harder, but do the nothing
while holding L1 or R1, and try to balance it out for the landing.
Get the Condor:
The condor is directly behind you. Go over to it, go to one side of the
room, still parallel to the wall it's on, ride up to it, and slightly before
it jump and wallride up to it.
Score 80,000 Points:
80,000 points is pretty trivial later in the game. With the list of specials
I've given you, this should be cake. I had to do it with no special, as with
the rest of the game. Just get into a decent halfpipe (there are plenty) and
do a stall, tweak it and hold it for awhile, then go into a manual, do a few
quick tricks when you're in the air off the other side of the pipe, by now
you should have a special bar and manual and do a few specials and you should
be able to do a 1 shot combo for more than 80 grand. If not, just do a few
specials linked to manuals, and keep doing that.
SECRETS:
-------------
Apparently there are 5 secrets here, I can't count them, but I'll list what I
think they are.
Secret Area: In the warehouse, on the wall to the left of the entrance is a
greenish machine with a yellow light on top. Go over there and get on top of
the quarter pipe. There is a red button on the wall. Go over to it to lower
a ramp on the opposite side of the room to the secret area.
Transformer: Once in the secret area, you will notice this thing that looks
like a Mac Truck, and some half pipes towards the back of the room. Go to
the half pipes, get on one of the raised ones, and jump to the top of the
trailer. From here, grind one of its sides and it will transform into a half
pipe.
Day Smith: Once you get the secret area, go in there, get on the transformed
half pipe, and grind towards the bull. Jump and grind the bull, and when you
are facing slightly into the raised area, jump in to get Day to join your
road trip.
Gear Outfit: Also available from the transformed half pipe, your gear outfit
looks like a floating helmet on the right side of the half pipe.
Song: Freestyler
This is available from the grind you do on the light fixture at the very
beginning. Jump, grind it, jump to the red rail, and grind. Don't jump to
gain speed, as the red rail won't let you land on it again for some reason.
At the very end of the rail, you will be going slow, but jump at the last
second to the next portion of rail, and you get the CD.
************
CHICAGO, IL
************
Points Needed to Unlock: 100
Secrets: 2
Gaps: 35
AMATEUR GOALS:
--------------------------
Barspin over the Fire Hydrants:
If you go counterclockwise around the one block that basically IS Chicago,
it's hard to miss the hydrants. One is past the red statue on the left, one
is past the 2nd raised bridge, one is before an underpass and another is
right after it, and the last one is behind your yellow van.
Rider Down, Free the Medi-Vac Chopper:
From where you start, go left and follow the raised path to the chopper.
Then line yourself up and grind the cord holding it down.
St. Patty's Day, Turn the River Green:
Go to the river, which is behind you from where you start, and go to the
waters edge, lower than the street. You will be able to grind the rail and
jump over the 3 barrels, causing the river to go green.
Score 25,000 Points
SEMI-PRO GOALS:
-------------------------
Catch the L-Train:
From where you start, go to where the chopper was, and jump to the tracks.
Grind the middle rail going right and you will hit the 3 handles in order,
causing the L-Train to stop.
Bridge Toll, Deposit 5 Tokens:
This is a hard goal. From where you start, go down the stairs and slightly
left to a curved wall. Wallride it and get the first token. Then go out to
the street. At the red statue, line yourself up and grind to the top to get
your second token. Then go away from the river on that street, and along the
right wall will be a small jump and a raised roof about 8 feet high. Jump on
it, and grind it's edge to get the 3rd token. From here, go to your van, and
near there, in the corner, is a place with tables and people eating. There
will be a quarter pipe onto a halfpipe on top of a building. Once on the
building, stay in the center, as it will launch you off, instead of up, like
a half pipe. Get this 4th coin as you are launched. The 5th coin is where
the buckets at the river were. Go to the waters edge, and there will be
small garden patches. At their edges are ramps. Ramp up, and grind the
lowered rail to get the 5th coin. Now ride over to the 2nd bridge and to its
right is the token deposit box.
Collect 5 Chicago Red Hots:
It's pretty hard to miss these too. From where you start, go straight to see
the first hot dog stand. Hit it and a hot dog comes out. Get it, and go
onto the street. Going counterclockwise you'll see one under an underpass,
one near the red statue, one near the 2nd bridge, and one near your van in
front of a building.
Score 50,000 Points
PRO GOALS:
-----------------
Get the Key to the City:
This is an easy one. Go to the helicopter pad, and on the other side of it
you should see a bit lower down a wooden ramp at a corner of the building.
Do a jump off this ramp to the next building. Once here, go around the
outside rail (not grinding) until you see a rope. Line yourself up, and
grind this rope. It will take you to a building. Keep grinding, and you get
the key.
Stop the Mad Meter Maid:
This is really annoying. From your start point, turn 180 degrees and jump
off. Go to the first bridge, and to the unlocked area of town. You will see
a meter maid to the right. Go to her, and use the car as a ramp to jump over
the meter. If you miss this first meter, it's okay. If you miss the second
meter, you're pushing it. If you miss the 3rd, start over. She will drive
in circles stopping at the meters. You have to jump over all five, but as
she's slow you have to jump over them and get it to say 3/5 or whatever.
Once you've cleared all 5, she's done.
Sprocket Grind the Bridge Underpass:
Once again, head to the water's edge. The bridges that have lowered have
rails at the bottom of them. At the first bridge, there is a small opening
in the rail that stops you from the river. Jump out from this and onto the
curved rail under the bridge. Sprocket grind the first section, jump about
2/3 of the way across, because there is a small break. Keep sprocket
grinding. At about 1/2 back to the first side, jump again, as there's
another small gap. Then you've done it.
Score 100,000 Points:
This level's a little harder, as there are fewer good half pipes. There's
one I'd recommend near an underpass. Get to a half pipe and do your stall to
manual to a few quick tricks for multipliers to specials. This should do it.
But, if you prefer flatland, there are plenty of rails. Just make sure to
tweak a lot of grinds and to add additions to all of your manuals. Then use
the bridge when you have a special bar (bridge trick, not bridge in
actuality) to get insane points.
SECRETS:
-------------
Song: Damaged Goods
At the red statue, grind to the top of that awning. Then go right, on the
awning, until you see a rope. Line yourself up as best you can and grind it.
Jump a lot to retain speed. Once you finish this long grind, you will end up
at a higher awning. At the end of this awning is the CD.
Street Bike: This bike is meant for vert tricks, as it is all Air, Spin and
Landing stats. It deters from your manual and grind balance. Use it as
needed. It is found Near your van, on the ground near one of the hot dog
stands, in front of a court house looking building. I learned from outside
sources that it is unlocked by freeing the chopper. (Nukem1456)
************
Las Vegas, NV
************
Points Needed to Unlock: 200
Secrets: 2
Gaps: 18
AMATEUR GOALS:
--------------------------
Find the Wedding Rings:
From where you start, as you saw in the intro goals, the rings are each above
a curved lit up sign thing. Ones right in front of your start position.
Ride to it, wall ride and get the ring. Then turn right across the pool and
there's the other ring. After getting that, the chapel is the building to
the rear and right of where you start, it's blue and white and says 'The Ol'
Ball and Chain Chapel' on it, but that's masked by the ramps up to the
coaster in front of it.
Clear out the Parked Limos:
This is a pain, but it is easy to find the limos at least. Vegas is just one
big circle, so go around it to find them all. Once you find them, Bronco Hop
over them, the long way. It is annoying and it only works half the time, but
it's all I've got. A tip from Bergerboy is that you can also grind the limos
to the same effect, and it's much easier.
Icepick Grind the Las Vegas Archway:
It's easy to find, and easy to do. Ride up the quarter pipe section and
Icepick this sucker. It's as easy said as it is done.
Score 35,000 Points
SEMI-PRO GOALS:
-------------------------
Roll the Dice:
The Snake Eyes building is primarily neon green, so you should be able to
pick it out. Go to it, and towards the end of it is a quarter pipe almost
hidden in the wall. Go up it, transfer onto the building, and brake to a
halt. Now, see that green rail on the wall? Grind it and jump the few gaps
till you are grinding around the rail with the dice.
Tailwhip the Dragon Statues:
These two statues are at either side of one of the larger casino looking
buildings. There's a quarter pipe in front of each. Go to it and tail whip
right in front of the statue. It'll breath fire, and you did it.
Collect 5 Slot Tokens:
Another fairly hard one, this. Start off by turning left from where you
start. There is a quarter pipe. Jump it to get one token. Then go up the
ramp to the coaster area, but instead of turning, at the top of the ramp jump
over the rail to grind on the side of the chapel (blue and white) building.
After this, grind on the red rimmed building and try to jump to the inside.
Once on this awning, go slowly to the end of it, and jump and grind the edge
of the next building to get the next token. Now go to Ballah's casino and on
a quarter pipe at the right of the building is the third token. Grind the
Vegas arch for the 4th token, and finally get up on Snake Eyes again and at
the end of its awning is the 5th token.

PRO GOALS:
-----------------
No Hander Toothpick Grind the Planters:
There are 7 planters, and they come in groups of 2. (cept for that last
one!). From your start you can see 2. After that, 1 is near the fountain, 2
are in front of the stone building along the wall of the level, and 2 are in
front of Snake Eyes. To do the No Hander part, just hit left R2 while
grinding.
Collect 5 Roller Coaster Tickets:
This is a tough one. From where you start, go up the ramp to the roller
coaster area, and turn right then left. You should see the roof of a
building. In the distance you'll see Snake Eyes, and to your left will be a
yellow gate. Jump to the building roof and grind to stay on. Then at the
edge you'll see the ticket, so drop off a bit to get it. Next, in the big
pool in the center of the level, there's one ticket over a small transfer
near your starting point. Now go to the front of Snake Eyes and there will
be a fallen Palm Tree because of your planter grinds. Jump and grind up it
(jump repeatedly as it is very steep) to get the 3rd ticket. The 4th ticket
is over the entrance of the stone building, over some stairs. Use the
quarter pipes. The 5th is the hardest. Get onto the awning at Snake Eyes
again, and then grind back along the edge towards the quarter pipe you used
to get up. You have to jump and grind the edge of the next building. Once
there, jump onto the awning. At the end of the awning is a quarter pipe.
Utilize this to jump and get the last ticket that is high in the air above
the street.
Grind the Roller Coaster:
Now that it's open, go up to the roller coaster boarding area, get up some
speed and try to grind the farthest inward rail. When you are going up a
hill, jump if you need to to retain speed. After about half the track you
get the goal, but I like to grind the entire thing just to show 'em.
Score 150,000 Points:
With the huge pool in the middle of this level, it's not too hard. Use the
same strategy as before, a stall, a lot of manuals and quick tricks, and a
few specials for base points. The fountain is also a good place to trick
out.
SECRETS:
-------------
Song: Boot the Booty
This is a real pain in the rear. Go to Ballah's casino, and parallel to the
walls of the building are some small ramps. Use one of these, and jump up
and grind the inner rail of the awning of the building. Then jump onto the
building and powerslide to a halt. Now, face yourself across the small jump
in the awning, towards the quarter pipes on the other side. Get up some
speed, jump the gap, go up the quarter pipe, land in the raised quarter pipe,
and grind to the top of the Rc sign to get the CD.
Elvis: Okay, I'm sure 90% of you have seen that slot machine while riding
around this level. The other 10%, keep looking. I'm just kidding, it's next
to the building to the right of where you start, near the pool. Go to it.
After to tries, it will give you a bunch of cash that translates to 10,000
points. I suppose that if you were manual-ing and got it, and kept it going
into a combo it could be useful, but I just see it as fun. After quite
awhile of using the machine, you will get a lemon and two heads. After that,
you will get 3 heads. Then some sunglasses pop out, and you get the Elvis
costume.

Get 4 Beaded Necklaces:
From where you start, head up the stairs and grind the rail along the edge of
the balcony. From there, use the quarter pipes to transfer to the next
balcony and grind that one for the second necklace. After that, again
transfer across and get the 3rd necklace. Finally, jump over the quarter
pipe and then transfer across to grind that last rail for the last necklace.
Plus, you get 4 women's attention for getting their jewelry; BONUS!!
Get the Skeleton Key to the Bayou:
From the start, go right, and in that second area you should see the key up
in the air. Use the kickers on either side of it to jump to it.
Indian Air over the Statue:
This one's easy. Go right from the start into the second area. At the end
of this area is a quarter pipe in the middle of the path. Go up and over it.
Now that you are up with the statue, line yourself up and use the kickers to
jump over it and Indian air.

Superman Indian Air over the Statue:
Once again, similar to above, go to the statue, line yourself up and Superman

Do a 10,000 Point Combo:
If you've been following my tips, this should be easy. You could do this by
doing a tweaked stall and then a few manual tricks.
Collect the 5 Voodoo Dolls:
Another annoying collection goal. Start and turn left, to the quarter pipe
ingrained in the wall. Use it to transfer onto one of the balcony quarter
pipes, then use that to transfer across the balcony to get the doll. Then
come down to where the band is playing. Use one of the ramps (NOT the
quarter pipes) to jump and get the suspended doll. Then go to the second
area, the area with the statue, and use one of the transfers on either the
far right or left to get up to the balcony area. Once here, use the large
transfer called Bar Hobbing that goes across the street into this area. That
will get you your 3rd doll. Now go up to the statue, and from here jump to
the awning of the building against the wall, and grind if need be to get the
4th doll. Now leave this area entirely and go to the Bayou. Once you enter
the Bayou, there is a stone path. Jump off it to the right. Follow the dirt
ramps and turn left at the quarter pipe and you should see a small raised
shack. There's a jump in front of the shack to get the final doll.
Score 75,000 Points
PRO GOALS:
-----------------
Grind the Banyan Trees:
I find this one to be pretty hard. Go to the Bayou, and at the stone path
turn left, and follow the wall. You will come to a wooden half pipe. Get in
it, and face yourself towards the entrance/exit slot in the side. Go up the
pipe and bronco hop in order to attain altitude. Now grind on the tree limb.
If you are going at a considerable speed, the first jump is not necessary,
just hold down triangle and you'll fall onto the second tree branch.
However, if you are going slow you'll have to jump that first gap. Once on
the second branch, you always have to jump. At the end, jump for the center
of the v-shaped branch ahead of you. Once there, grind to the end of that
branch and jump far right. Grind this branch, and jump to the last one,
which is easy if you got this far. Grind that and you're done.
'Flip' out the Jazz Trio:
Yeah, the band did have something to do with it after all. Go to the quarter
pipe they are all facing (the one farthest from you) and use it do 3 separate
tricks. As implied, you need the 3 flip tricks, the front flip, the back
flip, and the flip flop.
Adrenaline Trick over the Statue:
That statue again! Okay, go over and get up with it. Now you'll need a
special bar, so get up onto one of the quarter pipes at the sides of the
awning, and do a tweaked plant. Go into a manual and tweak that a few times.
That should do it. Now, pick an easy special and do it over the statue. He
will turn into a ghost and fly away.
Score 150,000 Points:
This level is a bit hard for points, as there aren't too many decent places.
You could stay in town and use all grinds and flatland, but I prefer the
special tricks. So go to the half pipe you used for the Banyan trees, and do
your stall to manual to quick tricks to manual to special to manual to
special. That should do it.

There is a rumor going around that if you get all the gaps, secrets, and
goals, you will get the Mime in this level as a character. For all that

Do an X-Up over Five Tree Stumps:
Okay, 1 tree stump is directly behind where you start, another is on a small
cliff reached from the start by turning slightly right, another is along a
path leaving that cliff, and the other two are near the lodge. One is
directly in front of the lodge, near the tree, and the other is in the half
pipe area, near the river beside the lodge.
The Hikers Can't Find the Lodge!:
You need to grind the 5 signs to get this one. One sign is right in front of
where you start, the next is on a the path from that cliff with the stump on
it, another sign is on the side of the mountain, jump up onto the small path
then grind it. Another sign is 3/4 of the way down the giant hill leading to
the lodge, and the last sign is in the somewhat open area with the hikers, on
the side of a hill.
Sprocket Grind the Ski Lift:
I'm not sure if all the work I do for this one is necessary, but here goes.
Go straight from where you start until you see the ski lift. There is a
kicker up to it. Now, line yourself up and jump up to one of the 2 wires and
sprocket grind. Now feel free to grind all the way down, though I think it's
not necessary after it says you've achieved it. You may be able to get on
the line much further down too, with more ease.
Score 50,000 Points
SEMI-PRO GOALS:
--------------------------
Bridge the River, Take Down the Old Tree:
I'd recommend the stalactite goal first, but this one is the first one they
say to do. From where you start, you will see a yellow rail on a rocky rail.
Get on the yellow rail and grind. Just keep holding triangle and nothing
else. You will fall off the rail, ride a little ways, fall onto a stone
ledge, grind, and then fall again onto another ledge. Now jump onto the
ledge. From here, carefully go on the ledge until you see the waterfall.
Jump across this gap, and grind if you need to to stay up. Now there is a
grind into a cave, which you can just ride if you prefer. Once in the cave,
you will see a raised ramp, go up the quarter pipe near its base and then
jump off the ramp into the hole in the wall. Either ride or grind until you
exit the hole. You are now on the opposite side of the river. You should
see the tree to your right. Use the quarter pipe and stall the tree. It
will fall over after a bit.
Tomahawk the Stalactites:
Once in the cave listed above, instead of heading for the raised ramp, use
the bowl that's further in to jump up and tomahawk. If you jump where a
stalactite is hanging, you'll get it to fall. There are 3 in total, all near
each other.
Land a Front Flip Over the River Gap:
Once you're on the other side of the river (either use the above mountain
pass method, or grind the fallen tree that is now at the side of the river)
you can mess around and use the ramps. You should see near the far end of
this area a kicker next to a quarter pipe leading across the river. Line
yourself up, get some speed and use the kicker to front flip across the
river.
Score 100,000 Points
PRO GOALS:
-----------------
Toothpick Grind the Track Fence:
The long yellow fence over by the ramps and such across the river is our goal
here. Get across the river and toothpick the entire fence. Not too hard.
Adrenaline Trick Over the Track Sign:
This is one of the harder goals here. I'd use the mountain pass method to
get across the river, because the jump inside the cave leading to the grind
down that hole usually fills your special bar. Now just go straight and
you'll see the track sign. Use the quarter pipe on the right side and jump
over while performing an adrenaline trick. If you fail, I'd restart the
entire level instead of trying again, as you need lots of speed only gotten
by going down that cave grind and riding really fast.
Do a 540 No Handed Front Flip:
Thank goodness it doesn't have to be 'Perfect'. Okay, this one's not too
bad. Right as you start, there's a path into the woods to your left, with a
sign post near it. Go to that pass, and you'll come to a huge leap towards
the lodge. This is our spot. I'd recommend holding L1, because you'll need
your right index finger for R2. Jump off the ramp, do the front flip while
holding L1, do the tweak with R2 (left+R2) and try to land it. If you did a
540 or more, you get it.
Score 200,000 Points:
Surprisingly, this level is easy to get this in. I even glitched the game
somehow earlier and got over a million points for one trick with Butcher. It
was only worth 100, 000, but it gave me a million. Score. Okay, with the
tons of gaps and grinds you can either do flatland or vert, or both. I
prefer vert, so my method is to go to the half pipes near the lodge, and do
the stall to manual to quick tricks to special to special. All done.
SECRETS:

Song: Rockstar
From where you start, turn right until you see the second hill. Beside it is
a rail. Now, don't grind the rail, but jump over and grind the rock ledge
and keep grinding until you get to a small area flat area. Keep grinding,
and jump for the CD.
Big Foot:
Even I didn't know about this one. Thanks to Ryan and Great Koro for the
tip. Once across the river, there is a hill that goes up, bordered by a
yellow fence. At the bottom of that hill is a kicker gap to another kicker,
with a camera in between. Get up a special bar, and do a special for this
kicker gap. As long as you do the special for the camera, Big Foot breaks
through the foliage and joins your team.

A bit tough for an amateur goal. Go into the building behind where you
start, and go all the way to the top. On an outside balcony is the Pelican.
Touch him and he flies to a slightly lower awning. On the right of this
balcony is a rope, grind it to the awning it leads to, jump to the awning and
stop. Now very slowly fall to the awning the pelican is on. Now he will fly
to the second half pipe pier (those piers out in the water that are not
connected to the main one). Jump to the large quarter pipe and transfer over
to the half pipe pier to get him. Now fall in the water. You will be back
on the main pier. In the middle of the large quarter pipe is the pelican.
Get him, and he will fly to the first half pipe pier. Jump to it from by the
stair where you start, and get him. He will drop a key, which is for the
secret area.
Feeble Grind the Pier Benches:
Those 3 stone benches in front of where you start. Grind the edge of each
one of them. Feeble grind of course. That's it.
Knock the Lobster Traps into the Bay:
Okay, just touch these traps. The first is directly in front of where you
start, between the two quarter pipes at the end of the pier. The next is
down the stairs from where you start, you can transfer using one of the
quarter pipes near the first trap. The third is on top of the large quarter
pipe to the right of where you start, and the last trap is on top of a
smaller quarter pipe directly next to the large quarter pipe.

Save the Pier from The Giant Squid:
What fun. I really thought this was great. Okay, get onto the big quarter
pipe, and from there jump to and grind the black crescent rail that goes out.
Once you get to it, grind the squids arm. If you are really lucky, you can
jump somewhat left once you get to his face to also grind his other arm, but
I can only do this 1/10 times. If you fall into the water after the first
arm, just from where you start go to that lowered pier near the water and
grind his other arm. All set. And what's that he's given you?....
Collect 5 Life Preservers:
Not too bad for a collection goal. The first one is from going up to the
entrance of the one building, and going right so you stay outside. Grind
that cement rail near the wall, and when you get to it jump for the first
preserver. Now do go inside the building. At a center area, there is a
small kind of hill part. Go to it, grind the cement rail, jump, and
wallride. Then jump to the top. You can now wallride for the second
preserver. Now use those little kickers to jump to the right side, and go up
over the quarter pipe. Jump to get the 3rd preserver. Now go all the way
down, and go up the normal path to the top of the building. Once here, use a
rail on the side (right) to get the 4th life preserver. Now go outside, and
use one of those ropes to grind over to where the pelican was that second
time. Jump to that small inclusive half pipe, and wall ride to get the last
preserver.
Do a 15,000 Point Combo:
Easier done than said. Do a stall and a few manual tricks.

Grind the Indoor Balcony:
This one's pretty easy. Go to the yellow rail that goes all the way around.
Jump and grind it. Jump repeatedly at the hill parts, so as to get to the
top without sliding backwards. Then grind the middle section, which is
shorter, and finally grind down the last section. Easy.
Cliffhanger Stall the Hanging Ropes:
One is located at the mid sized quarter pipe outside, just go up it and
cliffhanger stall (right triangle). Do it for awhile, and it will say you
got 1/3. The next two are at either side of the indoor area, each has it's
own quarter pipe.
Perfect 360 Adrenaline Trick the Funbox:
This one will usually take a few tries. Get up a special bar, and go up to
the top of the funbox. Use the kicker to jump, hold down R1 or L1 to rotate,
and do one of your specials. Now just try to land straight, which is for a
perfect.

When you complete the Pelican goal, he gives you this key. It opens a secret
area inside. On the bottom level a door opens that leads to a small grind
and a kicker to the Clipper Ship.
The Plank:
Once aboard the ship, jumping around a bit will knock down the plank. This
is a mast that fell down and you can grind to the pier with.

down the steps from the fountain. The 3rd is in the pool to the left of
where you start, the 4th is in a half pipe next to the red and white building
that is towards the bottom of this level, and the last poodle is in that
raised balcony area reached by transferring on the red quarter pipes. To get
it, slowly rid up over the lip of the quarter pipe where it is.
Perfect AlleyOop CanCan over the Awning:
This one may take a few tries. (by a few I mean A LOT). An alleyoop I found
out is jumping one way and spinning the other. So do a 360 in the opposite
direction you are transferring. The awning is between the two brick quarter
pipes near the top of the level. You reach them by turning around from your
start point and riding a ways. Then just try to do the jump and land perfect
(straight). CanCan is Down Left Square remember.

Collect the Cell Phones:
These are somewhat annoying. The first is in that area down the stairs from
the fountain, over the kicker gap. The next is high above that transfer
using the quarter pipes on either side of the street towards the bottom of
the level, the next is across the transfer across the street using the yellow
quarter pipes near the van, one is reached by jumping and grinding the stop
light (jump from that small kicker beside the stairs to the left and behind
where you start). The last one is inside the now opened house. Go in, ride

Then for the semi pro goals you have to find the poodles, and you can ride by
and scare them away after you've found them all! This won't make you redo
the goal either).

legit yet. He states that if you do a goal such as Superman Seatgrab-Barspin
that you don't have to do it all in one trick! He says you can do the

rotate on, just spin yourself back to how you started, so you land backwards.

Perfect Adrenaline to Flair:
This is in my opinion the hardest goal in the game. Now, the good news is
that I don't even think you have to rotate for this flair, simply turning
back to the ramp should do it. The bad news is that unless your character
has a fast special, you're in trouble. You need a special fast enough to do
it and a backflip while airborne. The barhop is a good choice, or any grab
is good because if you don't hold it it's short. Bad choices are modified
swing legs, any flip, any tailwhip, or really weird ones like the 900 or body
flip. Just do the adrenaline as fast as you can, then bust out the backflip.
I have info from Macneilbiker23 that a much easier way to do this is to do a
bridge manual, then go off a ramp and do the flair. The bridge is a
adrenaline, so it counts!
Perfect 360 Adrenaline through the Fire Rings:
Okay, I lied, this one does have a little bit to do with the level. Go to
the bottom of the slide you start on (with a special bar of course) and jump
the first jump, then do your adrenaline while holding L1 or R1. Not too
hard.
Perfect One Footed X-Up Adrenaline:
The easiest of the pro goals, the X-Up is fast allowing you to do it and then
your adrenaline trick with ease.
Score 500,000 Points:
Okay, this is going to be hard, but lets stick to our original plan. Get
into a half pipe, and do a stall, manual, quick trick, manual, special,
special. Do that around 20 times.
Are you getting tired of hearing that yet? I know I am. Well, my standard
trick theory, though good for any other level, will not work in this one, the
points are just too high. Here's what we do. At the start, go out of the
pool you start in, and you will see 3 ridges, that are paths to the 3 water
slides. The first one is the Upper and Lower Lip Buster, which will give you
a few thousand points... if you manage to land in a grind after that first
launch. The second one is a really steep fast one, that only gives us 6000.
No, we need the third one, the notorious 'Tail Whipper'. It takes a good
long time to grind down, and you can tweak a lot of the way down, until it
starts getting REALLY hard to balance. You will probably want the bling
bling bike for these slides. At the end, you will get 10,000 points for the
slide. Now, that's not it. Do some quick tricks, land in the pool, do a few
more quick tricks, then do some manual to specials, and finally a stall.
That should give you anywhere between 200 and 300 thousand points. For
amateur and semi pro that's fine, for pro just go up and do the same thing
again to double your points. Voila, not so bad.
An alternate method is the circular slide at the opposite side of the level,
but that one is almost double as long as the 'Tail Whipper,' and you may well
fall. It will however give you 20,000 points if you manage to grind it all.
SECRETS:
--------------
(They said no secrets. They lied).
Tiki Battle:
Tiki battle is not an official secret, but upon completing all of the goals,
the statue at the start of the level will come to life and attack you. You
get to run around with your rocket launcher in your own little first person
shooter. My only problem is that the @#$$ aim is inverted and they won't let
you change it. I'll put controls and strategy in the secrets section.
Volcano:
Volcano is your last unlockable character, you will get him for defeating the
statue. He says something to you but I missed it the first time.
===============================================================
7. SECRETS
===============================================================
Okay, most secrets have already been outlined in the guide. Each level
except the first and last have 2 general secrets, a CD and either an
unlockable character/outfit/bike. Here they are, just go find them in the
above faq.
Day Smith: Oklahoma City
Gear Outfit: Oklahoma City
Street Bike: Chicago
Elvis Outfit: Las Vegas
Bling Bling Bike: Boston
Vanessa: Los Angelos
Big Foot: Portland
Volcano: Tiki Park
There is one final personalized outfit for each skater, and it is achieved
from what is called an 'Adrenaline Shot'. Due to outside sources,
(skaterpunk) I'm led to believe this is gotten by doing an adrenaline trick
through any camera in any level. Thanks Punk. (j/k).
Tiki Battle:
This is your own little FPS (first person shooter) in Mat Hoffman.
Thankfully the game is rated Teen so there's no blood. Well, not while
you're in this mini game. It's in Tiki Park, and you get to run around the
park as opposed to ride. Here are the controls.
CONTROLS:
----------------
R1: fire rocket
R2: --
L1: Jump
L2: --
L3: (left stick) Run/Strafe
R3: Look/Turn
X: --
Triangle: --
Circle: --
Square: --
There are med packs and ammo around the level, generally in pools and such.
You start out with 1000 health, and so does the statue. Unfortunately he
does 250 damage a hit, and you do around 30-60. Keep moving, and jump a lot.
I'd say to just get cover and jump out to shoot him then go back to cover.
Near the end he will teleport, so be wary.
Mime:
An unverified rumor is going around about being able to play as the mime from
New Orleans. This may be, as there are no worthwhile things from New Orleans
as of yet (no rider/bike/outfit). I'll look into it. You are supposed to do
all grinds/secrets/goals to get him.

10. CONCLUSION/CREDITS
===============================================================
I'm sorry to say that due to extensive play and wear and tear on my nerves, I
am now completely sick of this game. I won't be adding anything to this faq
on my own, so if you really want something added, send me a note about it and
I might add it if it's relevant. Thanks for all the contributions already.
I know I got a lot of emails about the bike in Chicago, but I only gave
credit to the first email I got, so thanks all you others too. Besides that,
I won't be adding anymore sections, and with the new codes you can watch all
the videos for yourself anyway.
