On the second lap, take the jump off the blue boat that crashes into the red boat. NOTE: The Unicorn Base shortcut for ignoring the jump to the left works only on the first lap. I saved a lot of time by using the shortcuts for The Ruins, Tropico, Downtown Rush, and Firewater. While the easter eggs show you some of the shortcuts, it does not show you all of them, especially the ones that save you the most time. Make sure you know the shortcuts! In the last tier of side quests, it is pretty tough to win without knowing all of the shortcuts. The Shockwave is probably the 3rd best, but I felt it was subpar by the time I got it (after beating the main storyline).Ħ. The Cruiser is probably the 2nd best hydrojet in the game, but I felt it was too slow the few races that I used it. NOTE: The Scorpion is actually one of the cheapest hydrojets to max out, since you only need to purchase 8 upgrades (2 for each stat) as compared to most other hydrojets that require 40 upgrades (5 for each stat). In my opinion, the Scorpion is the best hydrojet because it has the highest top speed, still handles relatively well, and has enough boost and acceleration to stay ahead. Make sure you use a hydrojet that you are comfortable with. Tricks that I used (you don't need all of these): Rock Star, Surf's Up, Lazyboy, Handstand, Hang On, Double Front Flip, Double Back Flip, Log Roll, Triple Front Flip, and Triple Back Flip.ĥ. Doing the same trick twice in a row, even in races, seems to give less boost than if you did 2 different tricks off each jump. NOTE: You will need to do a different trick off each jump or you won't get as much boost. You will be doing level 2 tricks more often than any other type of trick, and level 3 tricks fill the boost meter. With extra SP, prioritize level 2 tricks, then level 3 tricks, then level 1 tricks. Variety of tricks and consistency are more important than nailing a higher level trick.Ĥ. Triple tricks are great when you can do them, but it's better to do a trick that you won't fail the landing on. Thank you nightw0lf for reminding me about this important detail.ģ. I personally got Boost Start, then Drafting, then Boost Bonus each time I had the opportunity. You'll need 3 SP (1 SP each) for level 2, 6 SP (2 SP each) for level 5, 12 SP (4 SP each) for level 10, and 18 SP ( 6 SP each) for level 15. They are available at levels 2, 5, 10, and 15.
They are you highest skill priority and you should get them as soon as possible. Make sure you learn the Boost Bonus, Boost Start, and Drafting skills when they are available. This is found by going to Settings -> Difficulty -> Easy.Ģ. Make sure you have the difficulty set to "easy".
