OS Tip of the Day: Never Waste Time in SSX

12:31 PM - May 8, 2012 by RaychelSnr

Trick Now, Trick Later, Trick Always

Never just ride down the mountain. That's both boring and unproductive. If you are not building towards a trick, you are wasting valuable track space. Getting a ridiculous high score in SSX means you have to pull a lot of tricks cleanly. So don't try to do a double backflip up an incline -- but do try to never waste time not tricking.

What is your biggest trick combo to date?

I'm confused as to what this tip is in reference to when playing SSX. When I'm racing, I am not going to spend time doing tricks. Yes, any time I hit the air I will build up my Tricky meter (and I might even begin the race trying to do solely just that), but once I have unlimited boost, I'm trying to find whatever the quickest line is, even if it's somehow through the air.

If you're referring to trick events, I don't see who DOESN'T really take advantage of this "tip." I don't think people ever run through big jumps with no attempt to pull off tricks.

I guess I'm just lost on the tip overall.
