Complete the Skate 2 We Roll Large challenge by following arrows and timing your jump off the statue. Big Black is unlocked here.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    When the challenge starts, place a marker (a marker on your minimap (a small map displayed on your HUD (Heads-Up Display)) so you can quickly restart.
  2. 2
    Follow the arrows, expecting to be blocked, sometimes even by Big Black. Go around obstructions or restart if necessary.
  3. 3
    As you approach the jump-point, which involves grinding up the side of a statue, focus on timing.
  4. 4
    Start your final three pushes just before hitting the ramp leading down to the statue. Do not make a fourth push.
  5. 5
    Use the extra distance from not pushing a fourth time to begin your Ollie/Nollie (an aerial trick where you pop the board off the ground) for more time to get the timing right.
  6. 6
    At the top of the grind, immediately perform a board-grab (holding the board while in the air).
  7. 7
    Use the board-grab to clear the fountain. With slight in-air maneuvering, angle to the left or right of the other side.
  8. 8
    Do NOT attempt to grind down the other side of the fountain, as this is likely to cause you to bail (fall off your board).
  9. 9
    Angle left or right and release your grab before landing on the other side of the fountain.
  10. 10
    Pick your photo and get your rewards.
Tips
  • If you are struggling, take a break and come back later.
  • It doesn't appear to matter whether you go left or right at the start; both directions have an equal chance of being blocked.
  • Three good pushes are sufficient for maximum speed when approaching the statue.
  • After unlocking Big Black, you can call him for interference in high-security zones for a price on future occasions. The first time he is called, it is free.
Walkthrough
  1. 1
    The challenge is to gap from lot to lot.
  2. 2
    Look for a ramp on the other side of the gap.
  3. 3
    Position yourself so you can land on this ramp.
Tips
  • Landing on the ramp on the other side prevents derfing (falling off your board).
Walkthrough
  1. 1
    The object is to either lead or follow by doing the same trick.
  2. 2
    If you set the move and your competition matches it, you move on.
  3. 3
    If you set the move and they fail it, they get a letter.
  4. 4
    The first to spell SKATE loses.
  5. 5
    Use your cell/PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) with the left bumper to challenge additional opponents after beating Shingo.
Tips
  • These opponents gamble, so you will need cash for the rest of the S.K.A.T.E. Challenges.
Walkthrough
  1. 1
    With both feet on the board, perform a few strong pushes and then Ollie/Nollie (an aerial trick where you pop the board off the ground) the first set of stairs.
  2. 2
    As you approach the second set, angle slightly to the right.
  3. 3
    Ollie/Nollie so you land on the ledge, avoiding the bottom threshold of the stairs which causes you to bail (fall off your board).
  4. 4
    Come off the ledge and head for the last set of stairs, going as fast as you can to clear them.
  5. 5
    Achieve a 3x multiplier by performing board switches on the first two sets and a double-grab and 360 on the last set.
Tips
  • It may take a few tries to complete this challenge.
  • Board switches on the first two sets and a double-grab and 360 on the last set can help achieve the 3x multiplier.
Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Go to the 'T' on the map to find the gate to a swimming pool. You are initially denied entry.
  2. 2
    The gatekeeper tells you that if you find him some more pools, you can come in.
  3. 3
    Three pool icons will appear on your radar; skate to each to 'discover' them.
  4. 4
    After discovering the third pool, warp back to the first pool.
  5. 5
    Upon entering the gate of the first pool, you discover it as the fourth of seven total pools.
  6. 6
    You can now accept the 'A Little Help Here' challenge.
  7. 7
    Burnett is shooting an article for Thrasher and needs a photo of a huge tweaked air (a trick performed in the air with specific adjustments using the right joystick).
  8. 8
    Get high enough air to go above the level of the deck above the pool.
  9. 9
    Perform a grab and tweak it with the right joystick.
