Hey guys

I'm having real issues getting air on the vert ramps. Anyone got any tips? I watched the tutorial on how to go higher, but it doesn't really explain it well. That might actually have something to do with the fact that I was very drunk when I watched it, so I don't think I grasped what was said

If I press forward to get the speed up when on the ramp, at the top I just end up going over the edge and onto the flat surface where you drop in. Anyone got any tips?

Shamikebab · 25 Jan 2009 at 17:34

don't bother with pressing forwards using the triggers is far easier. Press either trigger as you are going up or down the vert ramp to gain speed

TerryWogan · 25 Jan 2009 at 17:46

You're pressing up too late. If you press it half way up the ramp, you'll come out of it. Press it just as you transfer from flat ground to the curved bit of the ramp and your skater will lunge forward a little, then let go. Do the same at the other side of the half pipe and repeat. After about four times you'll have some serious height.

ScarySquirrel · 25 Jan 2009 at 20:11

Are you lot still on?

Shamikebab · 25 Jan 2009 at 20:14

I am, I think Psy is around as well.

ScarySquirrel · 25 Jan 2009 at 20:17

I am online if anyone wants to chuck an invite my way

Psymonkee · 26 Jan 2009 at 00:04

Me and Shami are pr0.

That is all :>

Shamikebab · 26 Jan 2009 at 00:13

Totally seconded, insane skills tonight. I can't believe we've only done 69 out of 149 online challenges though!!! The shelf life of this game is going to be incredibly high.

I love this one!!

I spent about an hour last night trying to hippy jump over a moving car (length ways). I am certain it can be done to some of the lower sports cars, but combining the right speed, timing, right road (ie. straight) and finding the right car all in one is going to be bloody difficult.

I am determined to do it one day though. I had some hilarious failed attempts.

Oi thats my idea too

Should be epic though :>

Definitely.

What would be more epic is if we did it at the same time in freeskate, one of us going lengthways and the other going side to side. I think that would literally take us about 3 days to get right...if at all

No shops this time. Just press start and goto "Edit Skater" on the pause menu.

Do you know how to get your 'custom graphics' from the online creator into the game? I have used the online tool and clicked on 'send to game' which seemed to work but I cannot find them.

I created a custom tee and there are loads of logos in there, but none of them are the ones I made. I want my LOL.COM t-shirt
