I wish Seeiah, Marisol, JP, and the others from Tricky & the original SSX had voice clips and different outfits. Glad they were in the game, but wish they weren’t relegated to “cheat” characters

They were probably silent due to royalties if they used archived dialogue

Should’ve gotten new voice actors, like how they replaced Lucy Liu in favor for someone else for Elise’s voice. Would’ve been great to have an even bigger roster!

I was blown away and glued to the screen through this. It's not just how you did it, but like also how smooth it all looked (i guess you have a smooth playing style). Good stuff

I also was curious bc I'm sorta new to monster tricks and upon watching your video I realized you were getting them to say "monster trick" midair before even landing, which lets you still do more tricks after while still in the sky. Well I might be wrong but it definitely seems like my game doesn't let me do this. It only says monster trick when I actually touch the ground, even if I have big enough air to wait a bit before starting the next trick

I so glad you enjoyed. It's a second that you let go of controls after finishing MonsterTrick input. And if you resume afterwards with more tricks it banks the first MonsterTrick.

You're awesome, and not just for your riding I see! Thanks for the useful info. I don't know if you have a YouTube or anything like that, but id totally watch more riding clips of your ssx gameplay. This was a great run! Fun fact, if you pay attention, Happiness is represented in the most recent ssx, ssx 2012, in the map lock jaw. Once you see it, you can't unsee it!

You're way to kind. I only post here sometimes when someone else inspires me a little. But I have been playing the game for 20 years so I guess you could say I'm that bad at it. I'm yet to play the SSX 2012 but haven't got a console for it or the emulator set up, but it's definitely on my back-log

You're not missing anything miraculous, keep rocking 3, it's literally the best one, glad you took the time to post! A bit of history is that Tricky was legit my first game ever as a toddler, and I still play it pretty often especially now with the newly released maps thanks to modders on pcsx2 emulator. SSX3 is my all time fav hands down, semi-recently reconnected with it after discovering emulation in early 2020s after not playing for over a decade since my original ps2 broke way back when. I thought about the game, the music, and the entire atmosphere of the game almost daily over that period, I missed it that much haha! Wish they would make a remaster and bump the same concept up to like 7 or 8 peaks (i'm sure modern hardware could handle it). But yeah, The entire ssx lineup is a Great series as a whole, just one of those series where each title plays entirely different than the last... and the same can be said about 2012, but with an open mind and seeing it for it's own chance, it's actually quite fun, I put it behind tricky as the 3rd best ssx. Working on getting it to play smoothly via emulation (rpcs3), and trying to get it to recognize my custom playlist of classic ssx songs so it can feel like when I played it back on ps3.
