- Reg's mini-ramp
Successfully complete all Thrasher and Skateboard Magazine challenges; Death Races; and Demo, Street, and Tranny contests. Slappy will give you the keys to Reg's mini-ramp. It is located behind the drop into the park, where the game begins. Go into the warehouse area, and move some dumpsters to reach it. Notice: It is actually a small bowl/pool area, and not a ramp.

- Overcomeing the Pros
Use the following trick to easily defeat the Pros in the Throwdown missions. After getting your board sponsor and the Pros' numbers, call them up one at a time to one of the locations (for example, the library for the stairs). Before the challenge begins, drag some objects, and place them at the top of the stairs. There are some ramps, rail, and benches on the other side of the stair on the lower level (for example, the challenge 'Can You Spell Girl''). If done correctly, the Pros will fail their tricks, or get off their boards and try to jump over the objects. Do not forget to leave an opening for yourself. As long you have the objects in the middle of the opening (where the arrow shows up), you are good. For some reason the Pro will keep going to the middle no matter what. After defeating the Pro, you will not only get the wager money, but also the sponsor's money. You can repeat this as many times as desired.

- Skitchin
You can travel approximately twice as fast by skitchin behind cars. Doing this can give you an extra boost during a race, extra speed for a big gap, the means to escape a chase, or just to travel around New San Vanelona faster. To skitch, keep pushed [World Grab] on the back bumper of a car. This can be done while they are stopped at a light or a stop sign. You can also grab on if you have some speed and get near the back of a moving car while keep pusheding [World Grab]. After you begin skitchin, the car will increase speed. Notice: Some vehicles such as sports cars will drive faster. When you let go from the side while hanging on with one hand, you will pull yourself forward for an extra boost.

- Easy money
Go through the Thrasher magazine challenges until you unlock the pros and get a board sponsor to almost double your earning on most events. To make the most use of this, place a maximum bet on the death races. If you do not win, rebegin, and try again.

- Mongo Push
Mongo pushing is pushing with your front foot. If you are standing on the board with your right foot ahead, press A to push with your right foot. Likewise, if your left is in front, press X to push with your left foot.

- Easy 'Vert With The Vampire' challenge
Get air as much as you can by going back and forth on the vert and ollieing. Then, keep pushed RT until you get to the tranny of the window side of the vert. Release the button when the tranny ends, and you will be going up the wall.

- Launch in the air
While slowly moving on flat ground, press Y to hop off your board, then quickly hop back on in one smooth motion. Keep pushed LT + RT + Y + B just as your feet get near the board. Notice: This requires precise timing. If done correctly, your skater will be launched skyward. This will lengthen your air time when trying to bail and give you more points for the Thrasher Hall Of Meat challenges.


Find flat ground. Push Y to get off your board. Push RT to throw it. Turn 90 degrees away from your board. Quickly press X to jump. A split second later, keep pushed RT and tap Y. Notice: This may require a few attempts until you can launch high in the air.

- Easy 'E For Everyone' challenge


- Easy 'On Top Of The World' achievement
Successfully complete all the K.O.T.M. Death Race challenges to unlock the SV Peak. Teleport there, and find the shack with the quarter pipe inside. Set up the ramp in an open area. Push up to the ramp, and do a handplant invert to get the 'On Top Of The World' achievement.




- Activate Cheats
At the main menu, select 'Extras' option. Choose the 'Enter Code' selection, then enter one of the following codes to obtain the corresponding effect:

3-D mode Enter 'strangeloops' as a code to shift the colors to give a 3-D effect when viewed with red and blue 3-D glasses. Repeat the code to disable its effect.
Big Black Enter 'letsdowork' as a code to unlock Big Black in Freeskate, Online, and Party Play modes. Notice	His bounce ability can only be used offline.
Disable NPC trash talking in Career mode Enter 'bailymcbailster' as a code.

- Easy 'Jam With Danny Way' Pro challenge
Jump off your board, and drag a roadblock from the top area over into Danny's path before begining the challenge. Do not block your own path down.

- Easy 'Blaow!' challenge
Pump and keep pushed RT on the opposite quarter pipe from the actual gap, where the two arrows are located. You should have enough air coming down. Use that speed and air with an angle to jump the gap. Use the RT trick on the tranny of the gap.


To do the Hip To Hip transfer easily, skate to the corner that you first have to launch from for the transfer. Set the Session Marker, and push once towards the middle of the opening of the marked corner. Do not go too fast to avoid bailing. Get off your board when you get to that corner opening. Make sure you do not touch where the transfer begins. Walk across the pool to where you are supposed to land the transfer. Jump once while off your board, then jump one again, but this time get on your skateboard in mid air. Land on the bottom wall of where you are supposed to land the transfer. If done correctly, the transfer requirement should now be highlighted on the list. Grind the siding to complete the challenge.

- Play as Dem Bonez
Successfully complete all the Hall Of Meat objectives in Career mode to unlock Dem Bonez in Freeskate and Party Play modes.


To easily unlock Dem Bonez, go to Old Town. Find any bridge, preferably one of the higher ones, and do the following levitation glitch. Go under any spot under one of the higher bridges. Come to a complete stop, and place a marker at the spot you have stopped at, then bail. As soon as you bail, go back to the maker you set. After you have gone back to your spot, keep bailing, but do not go back to the maker; instead, just keep bailing. You should be able to bail easier by doing a nollie late back foot flip before you hit the ground to bail. You should be getting higher the more you bail. After you get high enough, instead of doing the nollie back foot flip, do any grab (preferably a stiffy) or a shifty. Keep doing this to get higher and higher. Eventually your head will begin to hit the bridge or the location you are at, and you will begin to go through the bridge. This will break a lot of your bones, thus unlocking Dem Bonez. Notice: You may have to do this a few times before you unlock Dem Bonez.
