Learn how to perform ollie tricks for various gaps in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2, including the Planter Gap and Oversized 8 step.

San Francisco:

Lombard Ledge: The ledge to the left on the first big hill. Grind the whole thing.

Lombard Gap: Ollie over the first big hill. There is a ramp to help you with that. But make sure you have a lot of speed.

Planter Gap: Ollie between the planters in the center square.

Oversized 8 step: Jump over the steps next to the donut place.

Porch Gap: To the left of the Street Gap (as you're going towards the street gap), go up to the end where there are two ramps and a letter in the middle, turn around and you'll see a little pathway to the left and a 500 point bonus. Follow down and ollie down the 2 big steps.

The Spiral: Grind the entire ledge out of the area with the letter T. This section is shown in one of the movie files at the Neversoft's site.

Hubba Gap: After the first big hill, turn left. Past the halfpipe, there's a small ramp that you can use to jump over the little bridge. This jump is the Hubba Gap.

Hubba Ledge: The ledge on the bridge area mentioned above. Grind it!

The Hook Rail: Long green rail next to hubba. Grind it and it's 3 kinks.

Acid Drop in: In order to do this one you have to wall ride into the half pipe by the Hook Rail. You can get it tricking off from the big cement platform way up above the halfpipe right into the halfpipe. You can also wall ride any of the area above the halfpipe after catching a bunch of air and then come back down and land to get it.

The Gonz Gap: Grind the stone wall that lines the road furthest from where you start and jump from there to the steps in the center area and grind them (must be higher than the bottom step).

Over the Seven: Find this in EMB. It's kinda octagonal shaped (but not the big octagon in the center).

Bendy's Lip: This is a three section quarter pipe in the corner of this level. It is right by a police car. Grind the whole thing.

Backwoods Ledge: The ledge right before the area where the letter T is. Grind the ledge.

Street Gap: Right after getting the letter A, as you head back down the hill, bear right and break through the glass for the Street Gap.

C Block Gap: In the center square, there's a ramp that launches you over the middle octagon object.

Spine Gap: In the center square, this ramp launches you over a concrete ledge.

Pagoda Gap: Where the hidden tape is on this level. Smash through the glass!

Fountain Gap: On the (long) route to the hidden tape, just launch from the fountain to the ledge.

Handi Gap: Go to doughnut shop with the cop car in front of it. There is a quarter pipe there, get a lot of speed and come from the right side of it, and aim for the left. On the left you will see another quarter pipe, this is where you need to land. If you make it you should get the "Handi Gap" this over the handicap uphill thing. The little hill with the handicap sign on the ground.

Mall (New York):

Fountain Gap: If you ride the escalator up in the beginning of the stage, this leads you to a jump over the fountain.

Planter Gap: Simply jump from planter to planter in the beginning of the mall.

Rail Combo: Grind the flag shaft to the rail.

The Flying Leap: After the fountain gap you can reach a high point in the stage. Any trick over this ledge down will give you the Flying Leap.

Skater Escalator Gap: The huge escalator!

32 Step from Mezzanine: The last flight of stairs.

Coffee Grind: Double kinked rail on the right hand side of the mall right at the beginning. You have to grind the whole thing.

Over a 16 Stair Set: This is really easy to get to if you come out of the Coffee Grind. Just go straight off the stairs in front of the rail and pop big.

Going Down Gap: In the area with the 2 elevators.

Going Up Gap: Same as above.

For the Whole Atrium: Grind the whole section at the end of the stage (where the letter E is).

Warehouse (Woodland Hills):

Faceplant: Where the letter E and the boxes are, if you launch over the quarter pipe there straight into the wall, you'll get a faceplant!

Kicker 2 ledge: From a ramp...to a ledge!

High grind: Grind the entire sign.

Monster Grind:

Tips
  • Maintain good speed before attempting any gap that requires an ollie.
  • Use ramps strategically to gain the necessary height and distance for larger gaps.
  • Practice wall rides to access higher areas for specific challenges like the Acid Drop in.
