| Post subject: | Rail-tricks - How do i do it |
Hi there - I'm quite new to SSX OT. In the movies on Merqurycity i see loads of people performing tricks while railing. How do I sit down when i rail? Do I need to buy a trick? Do I need to have a full boost-bar? I tried searching the forum and reading the FAQ and the guide but I can not perform this trick. Any help appreciated

It's pretty simple. You have to have some boost first - then you just hold a grab and press the tweak button while you are on a rail. If you have a PS2, it's L1/L2/R1/R2 + Square. |

Oh yes! It works - now I finally can get past the "get ahead 400.000 points" 
I can score double now on a rail
Thanks! |

Correction to what Gondee said --- You don't need to press the Square button to do a rail-uber, just L1/L2/R1/R2. Pressing Square just boosts on the rail. You do need to have Yellow or Purple boost to do an Uber. |

Ah yet, you're right. You do have to have some boost though - I was right on that.

It actually took about a year of playing SSX3 to work it out - found out by making mistake. |

what's your preference? Racing or Showoff. |

Showoff is it for me. I started with the first SSX which was good...(bought my ps2 just for that game) but i totally _loved_ TRICKY. I got gold for all characters in no time... the racing was bad because you HAD to race 3 times in order to win so it took a while to get that done. While doing the tricks I learned all the shortcuts and then the races where easier to achieve. Never really liked SSX3 - but I'm imersed now in On Tour. Can't wait to see if another SSX will come (for ps3/xbox360 or maybe ... PC !?). Question: If SSX Tricky would show up for PC. Would you buy it? |

Ha - I started with SSX 3 then OT and now I'm retraining on Tricky. I'm a racer - I suck at Showoff |

Pressing Square just boosts on the rail. I wish the SSX on Tour Guide and Walkthrough FAQ explained this. It mentions "monster rail trick" as well as "rail trick", is there a difference? I can't figure out how to do rail tricks if I'm using the "Trick Stick Pro" settings. |
