Street Sk8er , released for the PlayStation in 1999 , is an extremesports game that lets you experience the thrill of skateboarding. You create your own skater and navigate through various skate parks, choosing between professional or amateur settings. Additionally, you can build your own skate park using a variety of objects and ramps.
The gameplay involves performing tricks on your skateboard, such as grinds and manuals, while avoiding obstacles like rocks and pedestrians. The game also features multiplayer competition, allowing you to play with friends in serial mode or compete against each other in a four-player split-screen environment.
Pick an event and go head to head against a friend.
High Points
When playing for High Points try to stay in constant motion. If you fall you lose speed and only do level 3, 4, 5 Tricks to you regain speed.
To Launch A Jumping Trick
Skate up a wall or ramp. As you reach the top (or Lip) press X and any Direction button.
TO Grind
Skate beside a bench or rail. Press X and the D-button in the direction of the object you want to grind on. Watch the sparks fly. (The best idea is if you fall near a grind rail jump on it. As you go down or across it you will gain speed).
Ramp Usage
The best thing to do is use each ramp only 2 or 3 times. After that your points decrease a lot. I recommend you keep doing tricks till they lower to the 700 point range.
Gaining Speed
I recommend that you hold in O to gain speed almost all of your run. You should only slow down if you are trying to get in a rail. Go too fast and you'll over jump it.
Grinding on Rail
When grinding on rail try to jump and land on the rail as far away from the rail as you can. The farther away you jump the more points you will get.
Los Angeles Course
This is the best course to learn how to start to do tricks. The best part is the big air Half Pipe in the park. The only bad part is until you beat the street tour with all 4 sk8ers the gates will all stay locked.
New York Course
This has to be the best course to become an awesome grinder. Benches, rails, and all sorts of stuff all over the place. Work the quarter pipes for big points.
Tokyo Course
This course is a skate punk's dream. Huge jumps, lots of rails, plexi glass half pipes. Just make sure to keep an eye on the timer when you're doing those big air tricks.
Half Pipe
The ultimate Pipe trick points convert to bonus time in Street Tour Mode.
Big Air
This is not about the best tricks, but about getting the highest! Work up your speed then bust out a trick like Backflips or other tricks that make you get height.
BOWL
In the bowl you can go from trick to trick, make clean landings and get MAD air. As in the half pipe your goal is to get as many points as possible.
