Cheat Codes/Hints
"Blaow!" challenge
Pump and hold 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 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.
"Bonus Team Photo" challenge
Stand on the ledge above where the sponsor is supposed to handplant. Then, wait for him to approach the launch ramp. Do a flip trick off the ledge just as he does the handplant.
"Can You Spell Girl?" challenge
Restart the challenge until Eric Koston falls. When you get the set trick do 540's by pressing the Left Analog-stick and Right Analog-stick in the same direction. You can also try triple kickflips or heelflips.
Get your own bike rack from the area above the challenge. Grab it, then drag it down to the challenge area. Place your bike rack against and in front of the table. Do not touch the table. If you do, go to the table and select "Reset Object". Eric Koston and Mike Carrols will fail because of your bike rack.
"Dunk Slam" challenge
Place one ramp under the backboard almost lined up with it, but slightly in front of it. Throw away the other ramp. When you start the challenge go left and up the concrete until you reach the tunnel. Place set marker as far as possible without leaving the challenge area. Skate as fast as possible towards the ramp. Hold RB before hitting the ramp and it should grab the backboard. Do not ollie. Hold that button and press Up as soon as you hit the ramp. Keep Up held until after the handplant. Try adjusting the position of the ramp as needed.
"Jam With Danny Way" Pro challenge
Jump off your board and drag a roadblock from the top area over into Danny's path before starting the challenge. Do not block your own path down.
"Vert With The Vampire" challenge
Get air as much as you can by going back and forth on the vert and ollieing. Then hold 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.
"Who Lives here?" challenge
There is a kicker that you need to move to land on. It is to the left of where you are supposed to land.
