Grinding can be augmented by pulling off flip tricks as you grind, all of which then add up and make that multiplier possible.
#SKATE 3 CHEATS IGN HOW TO#
We'll encourage you to grind just about everything in our guide, and it's best you learn how to do so most effectively. To get a 1.5x, 2x or 3x point multiplier going, you'll need to string together tricks. Points are doled out in a stingy manner in San Van. Finally, you can reset everything once you're done if you need a clean redo. You can also add objects to your session marker to make them static.

You can stack objects by dragging them on top of each other. You'll need these for certain challenges, and we'll tell you when that is in our guide. This includes picnic tables, park benches, half pipes and rails to grind. Get off your board and you can push and pull certain skate-able objects to your heart's content. You can also use your compass to navigate to important nearby spots, including challenges, discovered Spots and pools. If you want, you can finish the game without ever pushing in between challenges. Certain spawn points are even unlocked by completing tasks. Here you can warp to - you guessed it - challenges, among other things.

But you can avoid these base activities entirely with the help of your trusty Challenge Map. They will speed up when you grab them, but still obey traffic signals. You can also hitch a ride on a car, by pressing the OBJECT GRAB BUTTON. It's awkward, but it will make some challenges easier and make it much easier to turn around and stop.

In Skate 2 you can get off your board and hoof it. Now you can even add objects to your SM so they don't move around while you try and skate them. Use this to get that exact angle to kill a Spot, or to replay a Pro Challenge for the 500th time. You place it and can instantaneously warp back to it at any time instead of running around like a chicken with its head cut off - on a skateboard. Your Session Marker, or 'SM' as we'll often refer to it, is an essential tool for failing bailers.
