Before you cause the earthquake, grind up the rail to the brown
building in front of you. Next, grind on the rail to your left,
and before you grind the whole thing, ollie onto the freeway. This
will require a few attempts. As soon as you get on the freeway, go
toward the car wash. When you reach a certain point, you will see
some cars driving on air, and then a split second after that, the
freeway will pop up directly under them.
On the side of the level where the "collapsible bridge" is
located, there should be a gate across the street that you can
jump over after enabling the "Super Stats" cheat. You will enter a
hidden area where you can go through buildings. However, one false
move will send you back into Rio. Some parts of glitched area are
walls that you cannot see. You will just bang into them and go in
the opposite direction.
When in the first competition level, go to the cement piece with
the rail on it that is near the house behind the fence. Jump
towards the house and if you are close enough you will land in the
grass and can skate a little. You can also, while in the grass,
ride around the house while staying very close to it and get more
room to skate in.
Start by going straight and ollie over the "Mermaid Gap" and do a
Varial Kickflip, or Varial Heelflip, and then another flip trick.
After the first flip trick (the Varial Kickflip or Heelflip),
quickly restart the level. If done correctly, the second flip
trick will appear at the bottom of the screen as if you just did it.
While skating in Tokyo in multi-player mode, enable the "Perfect
balance on rails" and "Super stats" cheats. Skate to get enough
speed to grind around the circular holograms of the Gamecubes. If
you get enough speed, you will begin to spin so fast you will go
off the hologram and fly around the level. Note: If you stop by
ollieing you may end up in a purple area must restart the game.
There are three types of pedestrians. The first type will fall
down instantly when run into (for example, the welder in the
foundry by TC's rail). The second type will try to jump out the
way. If you try to hit them enough, they will knock you down (for
example, :the teens by the trailer park n Suburbia). The third
type will take you down instantly (for example, the girls on the
Cruise Ship). As the Demoness, go to almost any level (except the
Cruise Ship) with pedestrians. Try to hit the second type of
pedestrian, then turn so that she is facing them. After they jump
out of the way, the pedestrian will shrink.
When playing as Darth Maul the second type of pedestrian will
choke themselves while walking on air. With Private Carrera, they
will dance and say strange things. When playing as Wolverine, they
will get into a boxing stance. When playing as Officer Dick, they
will hide in terror.
When you have a time limit and your time is almost up, start
grinding on a rail (or something else). When the timer reaches at
0:00, you will still be grinding until you stop. Try doing this
with the "Perfect balance for rails" code enabled. You will keep going
and gain more points.
In Eric Koston's FMV sequence, when he is putting away his laptop
computer in the restaurant from playing Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2,
you can see Rick McCrank picking his nose.
When you use Rodney Mullen, he is already assigned the
Anti-Casper, which is Right, Left, X. If you quickly press Right,
Left, Right, Left, X he will do a Casper instead of an Anti-Casper.
Play as Demoness and hop the fence directly off of where you start
from. There will be two men attempting to barbecue. Ollie over
their grill, the gap name "Hot Foot" will appear. Look to see the
grill flaming very high.
From the start of the level, head over the ramps then over the
fence where the two men are near the BBQ. Turn to face the
quarterpipe at the back of the house on the left and ride towards
the ramp leading to the roof. Once at the top, turn around and you
will see two wires. The lower wire is the one you need. If you are
lucky, a small black blob can be seen on the wire. When you grind
over it you will squish a squirrel and get a "Squirrel Stew"
message appearing with whatever tricks you have done.
Go to the area where the two men are building the house. If you
stand close to the one in the red shirt, he will fart, You have to
stand there for a minute or two to hear him.
There is a half pipe on top of the mansion in Suburbia. The
easiest way to get there is to go through the door you helped the
thin man create. Jump over the wall as you normally would to get
the "I Got A Bad Feeling About This!" gap. As soon as you make it
over, go straight at the house, You have to be very close to the
wall you just jumped. Jump to the right and onto the house. You
will get a gap called "Look Out Behind You!" Turn around so that
you are facing the house again, then press Up to make the next
jump. It may be easier if you hold Analog-stick Up rather than try
and jump, because you may end up going over the mansion. The
half-pipe is there.
Go to the quarterpipe with the table on it. Launch off the pipe to
the plane that passes by.. If you get on the tail, you will drop
from above the picnic table for a 20,000 point gap called "Plane Drop".
As soon as you start, look to the left for a sign with an arrow on
the top. It reads "UTOPIA" and the arrow is pointing to the right.
If you go in that direction you will see an airplane taking off.
It only takes off when you get relatively close to the motor
homes. If you skate into the sign, the letters "U," "O," and "A,"
fall off. This may be the beginning of a secret area or just an
action normally done in the game.
Enable the Moon physics cheat and go to the haunted house. Get
as close as possible to the steps outside the door that opens and
closes. Ollie up on to the porch thing. You will see a metal bar
with the tape on it. Ollie onto the bar and grind on it. You should
now have the secret 411VM tape. This method saves a lot of time.
Once through to the back, use the ramp you land on to get air off
the ramp ahead to get onto a halfpipe above the house. Use the
same technique used in Canada. Look further to see where you can
get onto the roof. You can jump over the edge to return instead of
going down and through the normal exit.
Find the ax and give it to the thin man. Then, go in the house,
get into the open space with the walls of quarter pipes and you
will see a quarter pipe with a slanted wall on it. Ride up that
quarter pipe while holding Up. You will be in a room with a man
scared because of a floating casket. Go past him and out the
window to where the hidden tape is located. Once you land on the
ground, look into the house door there will be a scary face. If your
timing is good and you manage to jump into the door, you will die.
To get to the secret tape quicker, enable the "Moon physics"
cheat. Ride and ollie over Funbox under the molten bucket. Once
there, you should be up the secret floor. Ollie off the fly-off
ramp and quickly grind the metal bar with the 411VM tape on it.
To see a man getting treated, go to the far end of the foundry to
the windows. Then, go to the last but one window on the left. You
will see a doctor talking to a man who is sitting an exam table.
Enter the foundry level and go to the top end of the building
where the molten bucket is located. Go to the window on the right
and you should see a man getting a drink from a Neversoft juice
drink machine.
Go back in the right corner of the level, behind the car wash
where the photographer takes your picture. Look for the round
corner. You will see two grates on the ground. Grind on the round
corner starting at one end all the way to the other. Note: If you
have to jump, then you are grinding the wrong location -- you will
grind all the way around the corner. After you grind this, if done
correctly, you will hear the sound of the grates falling. You will
have unlocked two new half pipes. There is one that is directly in
front of you and another where the gates are on top of that
building where you get onto to get on the bridge. Also, for some
skaters this will get easy access to another stat point.
Enable the Moon physics and Perfect balance for rails cheats. Ollie
up onto the middle telephone wire and grind by 50-50, then turn it
into a Nosegrind and last there until you get a large amount of
points. Then, Ollie off and do it again in the other runs.
Once the Pirate ship is unlocked, you will see two quarter-pipes
that have cannons mounted on the top. Lip trick them and the
cannons will fire at the ship
When helping the thin man, you may notice that his keys are not
easy to find. That us because there are no keys. Instead, he can
use the ax that is in the construction yard. Go to where the men
are building a house. There are some boards set up to be cut. The
one closest to the road has an ax in it. Grind this board to pick
up the ax, then return to the thin man. After you have done this,
you will be able to get the videotape.
After you Bury the Bully, stand next to him. You will notice that
two people are throwing snowballs at him while he is buried.
Eventually the bully will say "Hey, that snowball was yellow!".
Go to the area where you can ride on the safety nets. You must
unlock the propeller in the museum first. Ride up the red ramp
slowly. You need to be near the place where you grind on the net.
Turn around from looking at the grinding for the net spot and go
up the red side of the ship. You will fall off after a few seconds.
Enter the room where you can do the Complete Bob and launch off of
the side of the quarterpipes. If you land the correct way, you
will sit down next to a pole on top of a small ramp and start
bleeding profusely from the back of your neck.
Enable the Moon physics cheat and smash every piece of glass in
the greenhouse. You may have to drop from the pool deck through
the greenhouse. Once the last piece has smashed, you will hear a
fight followed by someone screaming as if he was thrown off
something very high. This is the fake captain going over the ship.
Then a new voice will say that he is the real captain and the man
that you were listening to was a fake. This new captain will say
the same things as the fake, but in a different style. If you do
not hear a new voice, smash every piece of glass you see,
including the shops and the museum.
Once you have unlocked the real cruise ship captain, skate around.
You will eventually hear a bing-bong to say the microphone is on,
then a Morse code message that reads "S.O.S" twice.
Turn up on the screen once, go across the quarterpipe and ride the
rail. Immediately jump up on the white rail in the air and ride it
until you get the secret tape. Once you obtain it, do a 50/50
grind to get down.
Enable the Moon physics cheat and go to the place where the last
pick-pocket is located. Run him down, go up the quarterpipe and
ollie up onto the highest rail. Do any type of grind to get the 411VM tape.
When you are going up to the broken railroad tracks (where you
would find the secret tape) instead of turning right; go left. You
will follow the track and then some electrical wires and end up at
the beginning.
Enable the "Moon physics" and "Perfect balance" cheats. To the
right of where you start, is a huge circular object, somewhat far
up the right wall in the center of the stage (above where it says
"Gateway Plaza"). Go to the back of the stage (to the left) and
grind on the rail/wire with orange lanterns. When grinding, hold
Grind (or you will fall of at one of the turns) and jump up to
where the top of the circular object is located. Knock out one of
the wires holding it up and it will crash into the ground and
leave a hole for you to go through. The secret area is in the hole.
There are three types of pedestrians. The first type will fall
down instantly when run into (for example, the welder in the
foundry by TC's rail). The second type will try to jump out the
way. If you try to hit them enough, they will knock you down (for
example, the teens by the trailer park n Suburbia). The third
type will take you down instantly (for example, the girls on the
Cruise Ship). As the Demoness, go to almost any level (except the
Cruise Ship) with pedestrians. Try to hit the second type of
pedestrian, then turn so that she is facing them. After they jump
out of the way, the pedestrian will shrink.
In the third competition, Ollie off the launcher and quickly do a
Varial Kickflip followed by any other flip trick. After it
displays "Varial Kickflip", quickly pause game play and restart
the competition. If done correctly, you should notice that the
second flip trick you did the first time will be there. Then,
Ollie off the launcher again and do any flip trick or combo of
flip tricks. The points from the previous time's second trick will
be added up to your current points. This is a good way to quickly
raise your special meter and to get some quick points.
Note: this does not have to be done at the very beginning of the
level, but at any time during play, and can be used with any
trick. It is recommended that you maximize the special meter and
perform a special trick, (such as the 900), and just before the
special move sound effect occurs, pause game play and select
"Retry" on the menu. When you restart the level, the special move
sound effect should play, and you should get points for the move
you performed in the previous run.
Enable the "Mode select" code. Go to Rio Ruckus and start going
down, then turn left. Enable the "Moon Physics" cheat and jump
towards the gate. You should fly over and be skating in "nowhere".
Enable the "Perfect rail" and "Super stats" cheats. Go to the pool
and get lots of speed. Start grinding the outside of the pool.
Since there are a lot of women around that area, they will keep
giving you prop thus enhancing your score. Since you have a lot of
speed you will go over the gap where the water slide is located
and also increase your score. You can do this as long as desired.
When first starting the level, go to the right side of the park.
There is a platform immediately after the humps. It is supported
by some wooden stands. One of the stands looks very shaky. Skate
into that and you will knock the platform down.
There is a wooden fence going around parts of the level. On one
side of this fence is a section with boards nailed across it. Ride
into these boards to reveal a secret area with a pool and some grinds.
Enable the "Moon physics" cheat. Facing the way you do on a normal
start, on the far end of the left side wall is a sign you can
break through. Grind the train rail to get through the sign
easier. In the sign is a hidden half-pipe. Go up and do your best
trick, jumping in the direction opposite of the side you broke
through. When the "Slow motion" cheat is also enabled, this will
give you the biggest tricks in the game.
Immediately when you start the level, go to the right and ollie
into the place where you usually check your bags to get on an
airplane. It will lead you to a location with a helicopter. To
leave, either go backwards or down the staircase.
Use the following steps for an easy way to get over a million
points in a trick. Skate down to the baggage claim area. From
there, go to the left side and grind up the far left escalator
rail. Let yourself grind up and slide back down. Once you slide
back down, jump to the next rail and so on. If done properly, the
rails form a continuous loop as long as you can stay balanced.
Special grinds help a lot.
At the start of the level there are the two little walkways. When
you jump from one walkway bar to another while grinding you will
get huge points. Do this four or five times before the walkway
ends and you may get 50,000 easy points. If you manual to the next
walkway and continue the same thing you can get at least 150,000 points.
Skate to the woods in between the broken bridge and the plank
leading to the half pipe. Immediately before the start of the plank
(looking at it), look to the left at the snow. There are letters
in yellow that say "Neversoft rules!" in the snow. You have to
look carefully, because it blends in with the snow.
Enter the options menu, then select "Cheats". Enter UNLIMITED as a
code. The sound of money being collected will confirm correct code
entry. Alternately, complete all the goals in the game and get
gold medals in all three competitions twelve times in career mode
with a different skater each time.

Dick, Private Carrera, Ollie The Magic Bum, Kelly Slater,
Demoness, and the Neversoft Eyeball Man will be unlocked.

Put on moon physics (Super stats if you want to.) Go to the "Rio Ruckus"
level, and go straight and to the right. Launch off the guard rail curb and
jump over the metal fence. Make sure you are closest to the house on the
right, but don't run into it. If you make it through, you will start bouncing
back and forth. I've gotten 24460 degrees before and landed it.
Note: You need a ton of speed! Also if you mess up, you bounce backwards
and keep going. This glitch is hard to land, but if you get lucky you just
might bounce onto the mountain and land it.
Find two flags that are side by side. Grind the one with the skull
and crossbones. One of the garage doors will open, allowing you to
skate on a pirate ship.
In order to decrease the "space used bar" in the park editor,
create a gap. Then, once its set, click on the area where you put
the gap to end at then repeatedly press R or L. You will see the
grid move and hear the building sound. The grid will stop moving
after three presses, but the sound continues, Keep pressing the
button until the sound stops, and do the same for the place where
you put the gap to start. You will now have more room to build objects.
In Eric Koston's FMV sequence, when he is putting away his laptop
computer in the restaurant from playing Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2,
you can see Rick McCrank picking his nose.
While doing one of the following grinds, without Ollieing off
press one of the combos to do a "hidden grind combo". Grind combos
can transfer from move to move multiple times so there is no need
to get off a rail unless you want to completely change grind sets
from top set to bottom set. All of the grind moves are done from
the up or forward position (skater leaning forward while grinding
or sliding), and the down or backwards position (skater is leaning
backwards while sliding or grinding).
For example:
5050 to 5-0: Press Down + Y.
5050 to Nose Grind: Press Up + Y.
These are the two necessary positions from the 50-50 or possible
without the 50-50. You cannot transfer back to the 50-50, 5-0, or
Nose Grind doing these combos.
During these two sets, you can transfer from any of the moves to
any other of the moves in the same set, but cannot use specials or
to root moves (5-0, Nose Grind, and 50-50) without Ollieing off
the grind.
The up set contains the following.
Nose Grind (Root): Impossible.
Nose Bluntslide: Press Up, Up + Y.
Crooked Grind: Press Up, Down + Y.
Overcrook: Press X + X.
Nose Slide: Press B + B.
The down set contains the following:
5-0 Grind (Root): Impossible.
Bluntslide: Press Down, Down + Y.
Smith: Press Down, Up + Y.
Feeble: Press X + X.
Tailslide: Press B + B.
There are also some special grinds from both sets, but there are
too many to list. They can be revealed, depending on which moves
you use.
If you have used a trick too much and its point value is dropping
fast (for example, a 700 Melon only worth 1000 points), press
Start and go to "Edit Tricks". Then, edit your grab tricks to
replace the current trick with another fresh trick. The point
values for that trick will be restored and you can continue
racking up big points to complete the goals (high score, pro
score, sick score, etc.). This trick can be used to renew any type
of trick (grabs, special, flip, etc.).
To cause an earthquake in the Los Angeles level, and complete two
of the required objectives (cause an earthquake and block the car
chase), grind the four tremor rails (North, South, West, and
East). All of these rails are on the far sides of the levels and
look metallic brown. One is near where you start, another is in
front of the movie theater, and the other two are near the bridge
and the park (where the purple half-pipe and the pink balls are
located). After you cause the earthquake, get up on the bridge by
catching air off the "halfpipe" near the liquor shop and landing
on it. Grind on the green car to make it stop the car chase.
Use the following moves to perform a hidden lip trick combo.
On plants, anything that uses your arm to balance on (Invert,
Eggplant, etc.) use these moves:
Invert: Press Right, Right + Y.
One Foot Invert: Press Left, Left + Y.
Varial Invert to Fakie: Press Right, Left + Y.
Gymnast Plant: Press Left, Right + Y.
On stalls, where the deck or feet are used to balance on, the
following can be done:
Axel Stall: Press Right, Right + Y.
Boneless: Press Left, Left + Y.
Disaster: Press Left, Right + Y.
Go into a special manual (with the exception of a few) and press
the following combos to get a different special manual.
Truckstand: Press Right, Right + Y.
Primo (To rail): Press Left, Left + Y.
Casper: Press Right, Left + Y.
Anti-Casper: Press Left, Right + Y.
Handstand: Press Right, Right + X.
While in these transferred tricks, you can do a move by pressing
Left + B in all but the Anti-Casper. With any character except for
Rodney Mullen, press L + R + Y while in a Truckstand to do a Truck
Spin. With Rodney Mullen, pressing L + R + Y will make you do a
Pogo to Hair Flip (he is the only skater that can do it, like Chad
Muska and his Boom-box). To do a Truck Spin, press Right,
Right + Y again. The moves are as follows.
Rail Flip: Performed during Primo (To Rail).
Casper Flip: Performed during Casper (does not work with
Anti-Casper).
Truckstand Flip: Performed during Truckstand.
Hand Flip: Performed during Handstand.
Note: Try doing these moves just to impress your friends, not to
get high scores. They are extremely difficult with out perfect
manual balance.

In the airport level go to your right as soon as the level starts. Ollie the
desk and go through the X-ray machine. Go through the hallway and you will
see a helicopter. go the the right of it and you will see escalator rails.
Grind the rail closest to the wall. Once you start grinding this rail keep
grinding and transferring from rail to rail. After a couple of trips back
and forth you will see that your score will be times by 30 or 40 so it will
end up higher then you need. If not do the process again to get the sick score.
