Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX 3

Enter 50-50 Grinds by pressing A Button + B Button while near a grind rail or edge.

Enter Front Wheel Grinds by pressing A Button + Hold ↑ + B Button while near a grind rail or edge.

Enter Front Manuals by quickly tapping ↓ ↑ while in Air; rhythmically tap B to change manual pose and use ↑ ↓ to balance.

Execute various big air tricks by combining R Button with specific directional inputs for moves like Tabletop, Superman, and Can Can variants.

Perform quick tricks by pressing A Button combined with directional inputs for maneuvers such as No Hander, SeatGrab, and Barspin.

The balance ring indicates how cool you are staying or how far you are pushing your luck; use the Control Pad to correct balance but avoid pushing too hard.

The ring color and position indicate balance status: Green is perfect, Yellow is risky, Orange is falling apart, Red is danger, and Flashing White means about to bail.

Trick upgrades increase your score and are permanent; view them in the Trick Book and increase levels by pulling tricks multiple times to reach Level 5.

To get the highest scores, pull a normal big air or quick trick and convert it into a back/front flip, then try adding a twist too.

Always link tricks using manuals, grinds, stalls, wallrides, and wallies.

Playing Freeride will ensure that you get that all importance practice in looking for the best lines available in the game.

Always check which objectives are necessary to complete the level.

Think carefully about how best to enhance your rider through stat ups. It's no good being able to pull the biggest air if you don't have the balance to land it.

Try doing 180's on grind rails.

Use the lateral jump out of stalls and grinds then land into manuals.

Always save your game.
