Avoid crashing from falls
Use the following trick to avoid crashing when you are falling from extreme heights. Just before you are about to land, hold LT + RT to land instead of crashing.
Luge
To luge, find a steep hill, and the perform a “Coffin” (LT + RT + B). You must have speed or you will not go far.
Luge course
At the top of “Old Town” (according to the map), on the road with a wall on one side is a big cement dip on the opposite side with an entrance on the left and right. These are the starting points of a series of tunnels and branching open areas (checkpoints) for a giant luge course. Note: Make sure to set a starting point at the beginning because it is long.
Easy “Rocketman” achievement
Get some good air. After you ollie, press the Right Analog-stick Down to tilt your board backwards. While holding the Right Analog-stick Down, hold the two Grab triggers. Note: Do this in a pool or a half pipe to make it easier. This trick requires some time to complete.
