-
- I. The Strategies
-
- 1. Basics
-
- OK, I'll start off by telling you what does what.
-
- Left and Right = turning
- Z = Tuck (makes you gain speed faster)
- A = Jump (The longer you hold the higher you go)
- B = When in air, combine B with a combination of directions for a trick (see Trick Commands, I3)
- Up = Gives you a boost at start of a track/when you fall(see helpful hints; I2, or Secrets, III6)
- R = When in air, combine R with a combination of directions for a spin (see Spin Commands, I4)
- C-Up = Changes Views
- C-Down = Looks behind you
-
- Match Race = Race a set of tracks.. Normal; Crystal Lake, Crystal Peak, Golden Forest and
- Mountain Village, Hard; All of the tracks in normal, plus Dragon Cave, Expert; All the tracks in
- hard, plus Deadly Fall
- Time Attack Mode = See how fast of a time you can get on any course you've gotten so far.
- Trick Attack Mode = See how many points you can rack up from tricks on courses.
-
- 2. Helpful Hints
-
- First of all, you should NEVER hold the Z (duck) button all the time. I used to do that,
- thinking I would go faster. It DOESN'T make you go faster, just makes you accelerate faster.
- So once you're full speed, dont duck. And I would always press and hold up, thinking it would
- make me go faster. It didn't. Up just gives you a boost at the beginning of the track or when
- you fall down. When you go off of a jump, you can also press and hold Z right before you land
- for a smooth landing.. Also, when/if you get the Panda Boarder, his panda tweak (Do a 540░, with
- the Panda it does a Panda Tweak - Same points as a 720░, but easier, and faster (ie you can do
- much more Panda Tweaks in the air)
-
- 3. Grab Commands
-
- (All preformed in the air)
- Melancholy(or Lien Air, depending on Boarder) = B.
- Indy(Or Tweak, depending on Boarder) = right+B.
- Nose Grab = up+B.
- Tail Grab = down+B
- Indy Nosebone = left-down+B.
- Mute Grab = up-right+B.
- Method = left+B.
- Stiffy = up-left+B
- Stalefish = down-right+B.
-
- 4. Spin Commands
-
- (all these commands can be turned around, ie instead of R+left, R+roll your control stick from
- left down to right, for a 360░, you could do R+right, R+roll from right to left, etc)
- 180░ = R+left.
- 360░ = R+left, R+roll stick from left to right.
- 540░ = R+left, R+roll stick from left to right, R+left.
- 720░ = R+left, R+roll stick from left to right, R+roll stick from left to right+B
- 900░ = R+left, R+roll stick from left to right, R+roll stick from left to right+B, R+left+B
- 1080░ = R+left, R+roll stick from left to right, R+roll stick from left to right+B, R+roll stick
- from left to right+B+Z
-
-
-
- II. The Boards and Boarders
-
- 1. Boarders
-
- Kensuke Kimachi = My all time favorite boarder, balanced in everything.
- Rob Haywood = Most other people's favorite boarder, pretty good actually.
- Akari Hayami = I tink she's basicly good for nothing, except maybe stunts.
- Dion Blaster = Fast as heck! if you wanna rip the course up, pick him.
- Ricky Winterborn = The stunt kid. He's only good for stunts, but boy does he do 'em well!
-
- 2. Boards
-
- Tahoe 151 = Favorite board. Good for racing.
- Merlot 147 = an ok board, I guess, even though it has some of the worst stats.
- B-Line = a so-so board. I'd still go with a Tahoe.
- Scout 156 = Great board, actually. Not as good as any Tahoe though.
- Tahoe 155 = Slightly different than the Tahoe 151, better for stunts.
- Scout Limited 162 = Nice board also. only thing that tops it are Tahoes.
- Merlot 143 = Board with the worst stats.
- B-Line 154 = its an ok board, average stats.
-
- 3. Boarder Stats
-
- (Tech = technique, max = max speed, bal = balance. The max stats are 10)
- Kensuke Kimachi = tech-8, max-8, bal-6, power-7, jump-6
- Rob haywood = tech-8, max-9, bal-7, power-6, jump-6
- Akari Hayami = tech-8, max-5, bal-9, power-3, jump-8
- Dion Blaster = tech-4, max-10, bal-5, power-8, jump-4
- Ricky Winterborn = tech-10, max-4, bal-7, power-4, jump-10
-
- 4. Board Stats
-
- (ec = Edge Control, ac = acceleration, re = response, st = stability, fl = flex. Max stat is 10)
- ec-Better control and turning.
- ac-How fast the board will accelerate.
- re-How fast the board will respond to your turning.
- st-How stable the board is.
- fl-How stiff the board is. High flex is good for stunts, low flex for racing.
- Tahoe 151 = ec-9, ac-10, re-10, st-9, fl-7
- Marlot 147 = ec-5, ac-6, re-6, st-6, fl-5
- B-Line 149 = ec-8, ac-7, re-6, st-6, fl-6
- Scout 156 = ec-8, ac-8, re-8, st-6, fl-6
- Tahoe 155 = ec-9, ac-10, re-10, st-9, fl-8
- Scout Limited 162 = ec-8, ac-8, re-8, st-7, fl-9
- Merlot 143 = ec-5, ac-6, re-5, st-6, fl-4
- B-Line 154 = ec-8, ac-7, re-6, st-6, fl-6

-
- III. The Tracks
-
- 1. Crystal Lake
-
- A good beginners tracks, one of my favorites. You can just rip the rcourse up once you become
- better at 1080░ Snowboarding. Theres a semi-secret jump too. After the big jump, there'll be a
- cabin on your right, and one on your left. The one on the right is a shortcut, (See shortcut
- section, IV1.) the one on the left has a jump to the right of it.
-
- 2. Crystal Peak
-
- Not much to it, but you can get some good tricks off the moguls near the end. A fun track,
- but not any secrets I know of. No secret ramps, just a plain course. Harder than Crystal Lake,
- provides challenge sometimes, even for me.
-
- 3. Golden Forest
-
- This track is really fun! You go through a forest, lots of powder. Though sometimes the powder
- combined with the trees in it slows the game down. Take a left first, jump the log, come out
- into the powder, dodge the trees. after another intersection, take the right again, but this
- time duck the log, than jump over the second one. When you get to the lake, go on the ice, or
- take a shortcut. (See shortcut section, IV3.)All downhill from there, baby!
-
- 4. Mountain Village
-
- A sweet course! maybe funner than Golden Forest. first off go up the little ramp to the left,
- and drop into the little passage. After you come out, go in the house. Jump off the ramp, you
- skip most of the moguls and catch major air. Dodge the boulders any way you see fit, when you
- come to the cave, go right, than right again. On the second right, stay to the left wall, and
- you'll come out of a semi-secret passage. Same as going right, than left but alot faster. Than
- just go downhill, dodge the 3 cars, and there ya go! Victory.
-
- 5. Dragon Cave
-
- This is the course I can really rip it up on, my favorite course. lots of shortcuts (See
- Shortcut section, IV5.) that cut off alot of time. OK, just go through the course as best as
- you can, if it's your first time try to stay on the upper level with the bridges. if, when
- entering a bridge, you wreck, its ok, happens to me all the time. next take a right than a left
- to insure you get down safely. If you go left and another left, theres a shortcut (See shortcut
- section, IV5. You're getting sick of this huh?) at the end of that, just jump in the cave.
- After all that is accomplished, go along until near the very end theres a cabin. go in it at
- all costs, if its a neck-and-neck race, it might just be enough to win.
-
- 6. Deadly Fall
-
- This course is awesome too! its so big with so many shortcuts I cant begin to explain them all.
- If you wanna know them all look at shortcut section, IV6. For a huge jump, which I got a 30,000
- point combo off of, go to the right at the first branchoff, than when theres a half-pipe type
- thing, jump off the very edge of that. you should land on a lower level. Than just go straight.
- When it look like you can branch off left for a bigger jump, dont, keep staying straight. If
- You're playing stunt mode, theres a checkpoint right at the jump. It's the biggest jump in the
- game, to my knowledge. If you're racing, just stay on the right.
-
-
-
- IV. The Shortcuts
-
- 1. Crystal Lake
-
- No big shortcuts, but after the jump, theres a cabin to the right. Branch toward it, and jump
- on the ramp. On that route, you'll cut of some time.
-
- 2. Crystal Peak
-
- No shortcuts that I know of, but when theres an intersection to go either left or right, go
- right. That's the biggest hint I have for you.
-
- 3. Golden Forest
-
- Stay to the left on the first two branch-offs! on the third where you can either go on the
- frozen river or the powder on the left, do neither, go right through the middle. there should
- be a big log. Snowboard accross that, onto the side up there. after that, there are rocks.
- Right before the rocks, cut off the track and go up the right, to the right of the trees.
- You pass the rocks without any trouble. Than go off the to finish line.
-
- 4. Mountain Village
-
- What can I say, at the beginning go left onto a little ramp, into the passage, than into the
- house. In the tunnel go right, than right, than stay to the left wall. When you see the
- street, you can either jump over it into the opening in the rails, or you can go along it,
- around the grass part. after that, if you stay to the right there are some houses you can
- jump on. Don't jump on them, go to the right of them. If you can get it, it's an easier way
- to the finish line. Not sure if it's faster though.
-
- 5. Dragon Cave
-
- ok, when you start off, theres orange poles. After the last orange poll, go left, up the little
- bank. than keep going, and you'll see some rails, and an openng. go between the opening, and
- land back on the track. after that you can jump inbetween the two signs, cutting off lots of
- time, except now you're on the bottom which isn't a walk in the park. Or, you could stay on
- the track and go across the bridge, than take two lefts, and jump into the cave. At the end,
- go into the little house. There's your key to victory.
-
- 6. Deadly Fall
-
- Let's see, where should I start. Go right on at the first branch, and keep going straight into
- the little ice tunnel type thing. Or, when you go on the right, try as hard as you can to stay
- on the VERY RIGHT, as in the teeny strip of snow on the side. That's the best shortcut. Another
- one I found was take a branch to the right, than when you can go left to the little snow
- halfpipe thingy. og along and stay on the left, and soon there'll be an opening in the wall.
- Go into it, very hard, but if you do it cuts off valuable seconds. Not really worth it. Another
- is go left, and jump off of one of the moguls onto the ledge on the right. Great shortcut, and
- fun also. I can't say you'll win but this should help you.
-
- V. The Secrets
-
- 1. Crystal Boarder
-
- Beat match race on expert, select Akari Hayami, and when her stats come up, press and hold
- c-left, than press A. If it worked there should be a picture of a crystal head when selecting
- your board.
-
- 2. Metal Boarder
-
- Beat match race in expert with the Crystal Boarder to unlock the Metal Boarder. Select
- Kensuke Kimachi, when his stats come up, hold c-up and press A. If it worked there should be
- a picture of a gold head when selecting your board.
-
- 3. Penguin Board
-
- Do every trick in Practice Mode. This means using more than one boarder, because some boarders
- do other tricks than others. You dont have to do the Panda Tricks though. You do have to do the
- 1080░s. Doesn't have to be in one turn. You can also cheat the practice mode, and make it think
- you did a 1080░. that's later in the tricks section.
-
- 4. Panda Boarder
-
- Beat every single top score in time attack, trick attack, and contest mode high scores. And you
- have to have every track. And have beat it on expert mode in match race. Than select Rob Haywood,
- when his stats come up, hold c-right, and press A. If it worked there should be a picture of a
- panda head when selecting your board. His tricks are as follows=
- Back Flip = R+down
- Front Flip = R+up
- One Foot = B+down
- Panda Tweak = Do a 540░, it does a 260░ panda Tweak instead of a 540░
- Panda Roll = right before you hit the ground do a Front or Back Flip. More of a fun thing than
- an actual trick.
-
- 5. Cheat on tricks in Practice Mode
-
- Go into training mode with any character, and do a simple trick. Next, pick that trick in the
- trick list, and do that trick. than, press c-right and go to the trick you can't do. When you
- land it'll say you did that trick.
-
- 6. Boost?
-
- When you start a race, press up, and you'll get a little boost. When you fall, than get up,
- press up and you'll get a boost again.
-
- 7. Control the Opening Camera
-
- When the demo is playing when you start the 1080░, press c-up. Now move the control stick around.
- As a bonus, It shows your saved replay (if you have one) after the demo.
-
- 8. Other
-
- It shows your saved replay after the demo.
- When in the half pipe, immediately make a left or right turn than jump. You should get MAJOR air.
- During the replay of the Half Pipe, move the control stick for record scratches.
