SSX Tricky (2001)

by game_tinkerer  • 
SSX Tricky
Game
8.0/10on IGDB
Released
In the 2001 console game, big grabs fill the trick meter and open up exaggerated Uber moves. Racing still matters, but a long jump gives you time to try something ridiculous. Start here if you want the mountain to feel more like an arcade than a real resort.

Shredders
Game

Cool Boarders
Game
5.0/10on IGDB

Amped 3
Game
7.1/10on IGDB
Released
The Xbox 360 sequel sets its freestyle events inside an oddball story with deliberately mismatched cutscenes. The peaks themselves still give you room for long runs. Look here if you want a career around the trick sessions and a sense of humor between them.
