Walkthrough
- 1Start by performing small tricks for boost. Ride the red/white rail, boost off, and perform a character Uber through the orange snowflake for approximately 100K points. Press Select to reset onto the track.
- 2Perform another small trick to get Tricky mode. Execute a quick Uber off a small jump through the yellow snowflake. After the corner, jump off an incline and perform a character Uber. Near an orange snowflake, jump through the small incline beside the building through the "OPEN" sign for two Ubers through the yellow. Alternatively, use the small ramp before it or ride the rail and jump off for the orange snowflake.
- 3Get on the red/white rail, boost off the end, and perform a character Uber through the red snowflake. Execute a quick Uber off the steep turn ahead, followed by another quick Uber through the yellow snowflake. Take the right path when the track splits.
- 4During the next three jumps, perform a character Uber through the first x3, a Hand in Hand through the x2, and another character Uber through the final orange snowflake. This requires precise jump timing. After landing, perform regular Ubers over the next couple of short jumps as the path circles buildings. Consistent Ubers are crucial for score building.
- 5Approach a yellow snowflake off a quick ramp under a glass overhang. Perform a fast Uber through it, landing on the rail at the bottom of the hill that runs along the track. Boost off the end and perform a spin flip Hand-in-Hand through the yellow snowflake. After landing, perform another Uber off the incline at the turn. Near the corner, catch the red/white rail on the middle/right, ride it up, boost, and jump off for major air. Perform three Ubers or two Char Ubers through the orange snowflake.
- 6Immediately after landing, catch the short rail coming out of the turn and perform a Hand-in-Hand through the orange snowflake. Perform another Uber through the orange snowflake ahead off a short jump. Go through the tunnel and turn left at the split, performing a character Uber through the yellow snowflake. You will then approach the halfpipe.
- 7The halfpipe contains numerous snowflakes. Enter with good air and perform a Hand-in-Hand or character Uber for the first orange snowflake. If time permits, go to the other side for another orange with an Uber. Choose a side and catch the orange snowflake, performing different Ubers through each jump. Finally, catch the last two red snowflakes at the end, performing one Uber through each. Aim to exit the halfpipe with at least 40 seconds remaining.
- 8Exiting the halfpipe leads to the park entrance. Perform an Uber at the beginning and then get on a rail near the Jurgen statue. As you round the bend, sway left using the right analog stick, jump off, and perform an Uber through the yellow snowflake. Reach the checkpoint and line up for the yellow ramp ahead. Proceed at moderate speed and perform a character Uber through the red snowflake, being careful not to jump over it. If you land to the left of the rails ahead, try to jump on the rail to the right and ride it to the red snowflake at the end, jumping off for an Uber. If you miss this rail, immediately press Select to reset. Look for a rail going over the steep turn by the tree, hop on it, and jump off to catch the red snowflake running by the trees. Ensure you jump off the rail before hitting the tree.
- 9At the bridge, gain good speed and perform at least a character Uber through the orange snowflake at the start. Ski backward, turn around, and pick a side of the bridge. Jump through the red/white rails from below to get onto them. Boost off the rail and catch the red snowflake ahead, performing an Uber and character Uber for approximately 250K points. Immediately turn backward and head for the rail coming out of the ground in the middle of the bridge. Ride this backward to the beginning of the bridge, pick the opposite side, and catch the other red snowflake for another 250K points. Repeat the method for the orange snowflakes, jumping off early with two Ubers for about 120K points. Exit the bridge with at least 1:30 left on the clock.
- 10Over the next few jumps, try to...
