I just got it yesterday, and I played it a lot today.  Probably the greatest skating game I have ever played.  Any advice, spots, or just cool things about it that you know, just post it here.

watch tutorial first. if that doesnt help you hit down to make markers in the vid, then you click x or a to edit, from there you can change camera to follow, tripod, or game

i just hit A to edit camera angle, go down to where the speed is and just change it to a lower value and hit B. Maybe try only changing the speed, don't change the camera angle first.

you have not seen me^


and today i fund this rail line by the school. and its like a huge flat down but theyre 2 separate rails so you switch up or something over where they meet. then you roll down a hill a little bit and set up a jump. like over a small gap onto a fat flat down hubba, its such a fun spot but i cant really describe where it is.

Can i get my guy to wear a hat that doesnt look half ridiculous? Cause in the first one hats look soooooo goofy.

Im definitely buying this when i get back home... seeing as I cant ski thanks to my kidney!!!

stomped.

  That just reaffirmed that the physics of skate would make a ridiculous snowboarding/skiing game.  You think it'd be relatively easy and cheap to use the skate engine to build a game.  The mega ramp and fun track are laid out like a slope course/jumpline.   Wonder if we'll actually see one, as opposed to SW Snowboarding and Stoked.  Let's hope.

second:  bio 630 onto rainbow rail to 270 out



third: my dope ass line.  everything here was planned, if i messed up, i restarted lol

270 onto the bigass rainbow, pretz 450 out

has anyone landed cork or rodeo nines yet?
skate one all four variations of 9's were possible, but i have yet to land sw rodeo 7's even in this
rodeo's 7's and cork 7's are easy though just time it well and shifty the feet.

yea, i did it once on that , and can get cork 810 ish on the last jump in the fun track from the side, but havent figured out how to do it consistently yet, when you snap the the ollie and spin is way more sensitive than skate one, havent fully figured it out yet, and well, street is just more fun.
line from the cathedral through bent ledge park and down over the bowl with the ledges on it is just too much fun.
anyone else cleared the bridge yet??

yeah, drop in from the dam and go to one of the sides and wait to the last second to pop. Such a sick road gap for rodeo 7s. Rodeo 7s are probably my favorite trick in the game.
