Top Scores - SSX

Just make sure you are NOT holding down the square button while in the air.  First, do the grab.  Wait until the grab is fully executed, continue to hold it, then press the square button.  You will hear a small noise and definitely notice the difference in the move.  Hope this helps.  Please post high scores from other boards!!!

I have a question: it\'s probably dumb, but I never manage to get a triple misty \'n\' stuff, I have full stats, but my boarder doesn\'t spins so fast for some reason, can someone puuhhleeasse tell my what I\'m doing wrong?

In general, if you hold your prewind long enough before the jump, you should get the faster spin.  However, I don\'t always get the fast spin either.  I don\'t exactly know why, but I\'d like to figure it out too.  I think your speed going into the jump probably plays a part in that.  You should always get moving as fast as possible.  Also, if you jump a little too late I think that can cause you to spin slower too.  It may also have something to do with the turbo button.  I turbo into every jump, but let go of the turbo because you must in order to set up a tweak.  Maybe if you let go of the turbo a split second before you jump, this is what causes the slower spin.  I will look into that because it costs me points every race.  That extra spin adds over 50% more points to a given jump and makes a big difference over the course of a whole race.

yeah, these slow jumps are irritating, does anyone have a definite answer?

To do grabs while in tricks is what gives me the points and i press the shoulder buttons to do all sorts of tricks and rack up the points.

btw there is no point trying to get millions of points when u 1st put the game in because u got the **** boards and stats for em wait till u build up the best board and get all the multipliers then u should rack up a score like mine of 1,356,700 its not impossible but make sure u got a short board which is a trick board and not a long board which is a speed board!

I don\'t know if this has happened to anyone else before but once I actually fell of the map in Snow Dream. I went through a fence and just started falling into infinity, i managed to rack up something in the range of 10,000,000 points on one continuos trick. Took me quite a while too. Unfortunately there was no way for me to land the trick, so all my effort was wasted. This all happened on mi first or second time playing.

Happened twice in Pipe Dream. Pretty cool watching the track disappear above you. I wonder if this is captured in replay mode?

You all got me beat, i don\'t remember any of my scores. I\'m going to have to bust out SSX again soon. I\'ll probably have a week to kill in between the end of starfighter and the release of Ring of Red and Onimusha

okay, now I\'m getting pissed off here, I tried everything, but my boarder just can\'t spin that fast (I know it\'s possible, cause I\'ve seen it done on the psm2 disc), tell me exactly, and I mean EXACTLY what you do in and before a jump, for instance, take (superstar or better)kaori on the kaori board( the one with her name and picture) go to elysium alps and when you do the jump wwith the moving ramps (almost at the beginning, it\'s the second jump I believe). Now tell me every single thing you do! PLEASE!!!!

c\'mon guys, throw me a bone here!

I always use Mac because I think he is slightly better than Kaori (and far less annoying), at least for me.  Use his best trick board (the one you open last).  Another thing to do is play the game in \'single event\' mode, not \'world circuit\'.  This will allow you to start over without having to quit and reload.  

As for that 2nd jump.....Make sure you jump a little early on the first jump so that you can land on the hill and maintain your speed.  I usually aim for the moving ramp on the left side, but it\'s up to you.  You want to catch the ramp at the top of its cycle and definitely not on its way down.  When I miss that (which is at least over half of the time), I start over because there\'s no point in getting off to a bad start.  Anyway, as soon as you land on the hill after your first jump, start hitting the turbo button.  Others may disagree, but I always tap on the turbo button a few times and then hold it.  That seems to get me going the fastest.  As soon as you are lined up for the jump, hold the jump button and continue to hold turbo.  At this point, start your prewind.  You want to line up the jump quickly because it is key to have a lot of prewind time.  Let go of the jump button as soon as your snowboard hits the bottom of the ramp, and you will maximize the height you get off the ramp.  If you are going fast enough, you should get the fast spin and the 3X multiplier.  I\'ve managed to get in 4 rodeos for over 60,000 points, but you will want to get at least 40,000 points on the jump.  I hope this helps...good luck.

thanks, I hope it herlps, it would certainly make the game a lot better!!

The length of your your prewind directly affects the speed of your spin; the longer you hold it, the quicker you will spin.

thanks guys, after having the game for 3+ months and already playing it through, I finally played the game the right way!!!
I finally did it, so it was the prewind button all along!
A new era of gaming arrives whoopdidoo!!!
