Top Skater
Big Head Mode:
At the Course Select screen, press Left 9 times, Right 9 times, Right
4 times, Left 4 times, Right 5 times, and Left 5 times. Next, lean
forward on the board and (while holding forward), press Left and Right
together 3 times. If you do this correctly, you will hear a laughing
sound.
Continuous Grind:
To perform a continuous grind, hold down the front or back end of the
board on the grinding pole.
Freestyle Course:
To access the secret, freestyle course, do the following:
At the course select screen, lean and hold forward on the board, then
press RIGHT to highlight the expert course. While continuing to hold
forward, press the START button and choose your character. Continue to
hold the board down until you feel click and the screen says "ACTION
BOARD WILL UNLOCK."
As you approach the "BIG AIR" jump at the beginning of the course, DO
NOT MAKE A JUMP. Simply "fall off" the edge without leaning backwards
or forward to make a jump. At the beginning of the arena on the left
side there is a broken fence. Jump into the area to warp to the secret
course.
Enjoy the freestyle course, you have 90 seconds, there are no time
bonuses or checkpoints.
Goofy Mode:
To change the stance of the players from normal to goofy and vice-
versa, press Left and Right together on the character of your choice
(at the character select screen.) This trick does not work on P-Nut,
and it will make Alex "surf" backwards).
Grinding Made Easy:
When coming up to a grind rail, kick the nose of your board (instead
of your tail) when right in front of the rail. If done correctly, you
will get on, doing a 50-50, 5.0, nose slide, tail slide, blunt slide,
boardslide, K- Grind, or crooked grind.
Play as Alex the Surfer:
At the Skater Select screen, press Left 3 times, Right 3 times, then
press Left 14 times before the counter reaches 0. If you were quick
enough you'll see Alex.
Play as P-Nut:
At the Course Select screen, press and hold Start (don't release it!)
At the Character Select screen, press Right 6 times, Left 6 times,
Right 3 times, Left 3 times, and Right 4 times. You should now be
Cookie. Release Start and Cookie will be wearing a swimsuit and a
boogieboard.
Top Tricks:
When skating with any skater, when you're about to go off a jump, kick
the nose or tail of your board the second you come off the ramp. If
done correctly, you can ensure an A-Class or S-Class rating.
Note: Don't kick the tail or nose of the board to quickly, or the game
will say,"Trick Miss." and you'll crash and earn no points!
