SKATE PARK

The Skate Park in Chicago isn't like the other stages.  This is one of the three skate competitions where you get to test your skill against the other skaters.  You don't actually see them or anything, but the concept is still cool.   The point of this stage is just to bust out big tricks, don't hold anything back.   There are some cool areas that get you crazy transfers.

Contest 1: Skate Park, Chicago - You've got three runs to take it out on all of the other pro skaters in the "Windy City Slam" contest.   Five judges will score each run based on variety, difficulty, and style.  When all is said and done, the top three finishers will receive shiny new medals to wear around their necks.

TAPES

There are no tapes in this stage, just pull a bunch of crazy tricks without bailing too much.

Strategy: Since there are no tapes to get, I will just explain what you should do to win.  First, you need to know that when you bail, the judges don't like it.  You could get 150,000 points, but if you bail, you won't get all 99.9's.   I know, it's happened.  This strategy is for those who are decently good at the game.  If you are completely terrible, just stay in the halfpipe or the pool.   First, go straight, and Fastplant onto the rail.  You can stick in a trick after the Fastplant, but anyway, grind the rail, then do a trick to the lower section, grind that, and possibly a trick off.  Now you should have some speed.  Go off that really small QP right in front of you, and do a grab trick, and go into the halfpipe, getting the HP Transfer.  Next, pop out of the halfpipe on the other side, and you will get the transfer "Transfer".  I do a Fastplant + Transfer + Japan Air + Backflip out of it for a good 20,000-30,000 points.  Straighten yourself out by grinding the box, then do a trick up the short QP that is after the box.  When you come down, grind the box again, then transfer back into the halfpipe.  If you get enough air, grind the rafters to get the Rafter Rail.  You can sometimes get it to glitch and give you the Over the Rafters transfer as well.  Grind down the rail, adding flip tricks between grinds, and Backflip into the pool.  It's very tricky, but instead of doing a Backflip, you may be able to grind the lip of the pool.  Repeat the process of doing the Rafter Rail transfer a few times, and you will easily get over 100,000 points in the minute they give you.  If you can do this without falling, you can get straight 99.9's all across the board.  Go try it!
