Sprocket Stall
There is only one place where this can be done, and
it is the only rail in the level. Go there and grind on it where
your bike is completely crooked by the wheels are the opposite
way of the rail. You should stall if done correctly.
Disaster grind
Approach a rail that is angled, and bunny hop. Then,
do a Disaster ([Down/Left], [Triangle]). If done correctly,
you should grind down the rail in a Disaster. Note: You will stop
grinding at the end of the rail, and you will not fall off. Note:
Enabling the "Perfect balance" code is recommended.
Truckdriver
Do a Barspin followed by a 360. This is worth 350 points.
Flair
Do a Backflip ([Down/Right], [Square]) followed
by a 180. This is worth 2,500 points.
Mega Bunnyhop
To do this trick, you have to spin 1260 (seven 180s).
The best place to do this is at the CFB Competition. When you
start, there is a rail to the left. Grind it, then jump to the
next rail. After you get speed from the grinds there is a Quarterpipe
right after the end of the second rail. As soon as you fall off
the rail, quickly go up the quarter pipe and hold [L1] or
[R1]. If you get enough air and spin fast enough, you should
do this rather difficult trick.
Instead of trying to get a lot of air to do this trick, while
in the air, hold either [L1] and tap [L2] rapidly, or
[R1] and tap [R2] rapidly. This will send you into a
very fast spin that is often hard to control. This trick is also
great for hitting Mega Flairs or Mega Decade Airs, both being
worth big points.
Ride a wheelie
Do a Bunnyhop and press [Up], [Down] and
your character will ride a wheelie. If you do a bunny hop and
press [Down], [Up], your character will ride on the
front wheel only.
Lip tricks
When coming up to a lip on a half pipe or wall, hold
[Down/Right] and press [Triangle]. Different bikers
will do different tricks, Mat Hoffman does a foot plant, Rick
Thorne does a mean lookin' foot plant 360 tailwhip, and Mike Escamilla
does a hand plant.
Extra points
After the game loads and you press [X], go straight
to your left. There will be a half-pipe with big walls. Go up
and down it to get some speed, then ramp the right end of it.
You have to go over a thick pole at the top of the warehouse.
If done correctly, the "Over the Top" message will appear
and you will get 1500 points. When you land on the quarter-pipe
with small walls, look straight ahead and you will see a large
black square at the other end of the level. That is the garage
door, which is now open. You will have five seconds to get there
before it closes. The outside has four dirt ramps, and the walls
are dirt quarter-pipes.
To win the competitions, easily just enable the "10x Multiplier"
and "Perfect balance" codes. Go to the first spot to
do a stall. When you are on the pipe, hold [Triangle] + [L1]
and repeatedly press [X]. Your points will add up quickly.
Make sure you are in a toothpick stall and jump off when you have
enough points and then end run. 150,000 points are enough to win
the gold. If you get 1,000,000 points, you will get a 99.9 score
from all the judges.
Dirt track
Go to the half pipe where it goes to the small place
right next to it. Go over that long pipe (over the whole track)
and grind it. The garage door will open, revealing a dirt track
on the other side.
Easy win
When you are in the level that you have to get medals,
do a special trick. Then, end heat and you will get a in the 90s
in points and an automatic win, if you do not wreck.
Exorcist effect
Enable the Big Tires code, then get 10,000 or more
points doing a trick or grind to have your bikers head turn green
and spin on his shoulders.
To make Matt Hoffman's head turn green and spin, enable the "Perfect
balance" code. Go up to a bowl and grind around it for a
long time. Jump off the rail, finishing your trick, and Matt's
head should turn green and spin in full rotation.
Stretched arms
Unlock Granny and play a session with her. During the
session, do an X-Up. Granny's arms will reach out far in front
of her.
Construction Yard: Secret Cover
Go straight and jump off to the left. While in the
air do any desired trick. Hold [Back] + [Left] to turn
around very quickly. Go straight up the beam which is on the side
of the hill. Jump off at the top. Go straight toward the gray
ramp (make sure you do some non-high air tricks such as a No Hander,
or No Footer). Jump, and while in the air, do a Back Flip. Make
sure you plant on the far middle bar in order to slide toward
the far outward beam. Then, grind toward the Secret Cover. This
is the most difficult Secret Cover to get.
Hoffman Bike Factory: Secret Cover
Go straight and do any high air trick. Then, go back
up the ramp you came down from. Jump to your left into the pool-type
area. Turn left and grind on the rail until after you hit the
switch. Then, jump straight off the rail and turn left. Go out
the back door, and do some Back Flips to build up speed. Then,
on the back wall, do a Tail Whip (any trick works, but the Tail
Whip is the best to build up speed). Turn to look up at the glass
window. Do any trick on the three jumps (if you do Back Flips
you will only hit two of the three ramps, which is better then
hitting all three). On the last jump, do any trick then jump and
press [Triangle] to grind on the pipe. The pipe is off the
screen but near the roof, which is why you have to jump as soon
as you hit the window. Grind on the pipe and stay on it pipe until
you reach the end to get the Secret Cover for Hoffman's Bike Factory.
LA Harbor California: Secret Cover
Go down the ramp. On the first ramp you see, do a light
air trick. Then, turn left and go towards the rail which leads
upward. Turn right and jump over the parked car in the parking
lot then turn left. You will see a small ramp in front of you
that heads towards the building which resembles a house. Line
yourself up on the ramp so your going towards the fireplace. Jump
and do a Back Flip once you are in the air. At the top of the
roof, do a Back Flip over the fireplace in order to get the Secret
Cover.
LA Harbor: Extra points
Turn around from your starting position and go into
the first green half-pipe. To the right of the pipe will be the
fence that the "R" is on. If you go to the part of the
pipe nearest the fence you can trick on to it. Grind trick out
to come out with about a fifth of the score. This also includes
two gaps, but may not appear every time. Add specials into the
mix to get up to 100,000 points.
London Underground: Secret Cover
Bunny Hop on the rail and grind it toward the bonus
points. Jump off the rail once you get to them and do a No Footer.
Then, go straight and do some high air tricks (Back Flip recommended).
Then, do another high air trick on the next ramp. Next, turn right
and jump on the rail. Jumping and grinding on the rail will get
you straightened up for this next big jump. Do not jump off --
just let it run out of rail. Then, jump upward onto the pipe near
the roof. Just before it ends, jump off. Jump on the next pipe
and you should get the Secret Cover if you grind on it for awhile.
New York City Park: Secret Cover
Turn around, then turn right past the stand. Turn right
again towards the tree. Do a Back Flip in between the two branches
and immediately press [Triangle] to grab the branch that
is sticking out. Grind on the branch until you see the Secret
Cover, then jump and do a Tail Whip.
Treatment Plant: Secret Cover
Go down the ramp that you are on. When you see the
two smaller ramps in front of you, do some light air tricks (No
Footer and No Hander recommended to get speed). Turn right after
the last small ramp then jump and grind on the left rail near
the barrels. Grind it until you are at the top of the ramp, then
jump and grind on that rail. Jump and either grind on the side
of the building (which is more difficult) or jump onto the building
and go straight at the curving beam and the far right end of the
building. Jump and grind on the beam until you get across it.
Then, turn right and jump and plant on that beam. Grind on the
beam until you get to the end and do a Back Flip to get the Secret
Cover.
Dirt track (demo version)
Do a trick over the high pipe that goes across the
ceiling. The door should open up, revealing an outdoor dirt track.
Since you can only enter once per "Over the Top" gap,
you will need to get it additional times. You can also try to
force your way through the door.

Glitch: Massive spins
Immediately after launching off a jump, quickly press
[R1], [R2] repeatedly. Soon, your biker will spin a
lot faster than usual. If you do a trick in the spin, the number
of spins you have achieved will appear (360, 720, etc.) It is
possible to do a 1800.
Glitch: Floating Shwarma stand
Start a session in NYC Park. Immediately after you
start, go directly to your right to see one of the Shwarma stands
you need to knock down. Sometimes, if you run into it, only the
bottom half will tumble away and you will not get the Shwarma
stands message. Jump and hit the roof of the Shwarma stand to
get the credit.
Glitch: Granny has no front wheel
When in the air, press [Down/Right], then press
[Square]. If done correctly, you will see a purple line and
Granny will not have a tire.

code. Do the "Exorcist effect" trick and his head will
stick way out and spin around.
Glitch: Black hole
Enable the "Big tires" code and play as Granny.
In level 1, go to the outside area with the dirt ramps and keep
trying to jump the back right corner of the fence. You will end
up in a "black hole" and can rack up points very quickly.
Glitch: Stuck in fence
Start the California level and jump up to where the
letter "R" was located. Do a tail whip toward the fence
to get stuck. Note: Do not use this trick unless you are running
out of time and are desperate for points -- there is no way out.
Glitch: Tony Hawk reference
Create a park and use low wooden quarter pipes. Instead
of having MHPB (Mat Hoffman's Pro BMX) written on it, it
will be marked with THPS (Tony Hawk's Pro Skater).
