    Default Fakie help

    How do I skate fakie in the game, I'm regular footed, and have only been able to skate fakie while on a vert ramp or in a bowel. Would love to pull some tricks off fakie but can't figure it out!

    Ohh had another question!!

    I'm trying to do a short montage, of a CAP remake of El Toro. I can't hit the rail near the top cause of the steepness of the stairs, any tips or suggetions?

    If your on hardcore, set a session marker really close, that way you only have two pushes to get in before you ollie. And if your having difficulty, just remember there are people breaking their faces doing half the stuff you did irl

    NO kidding, I was watching some good footage on Youtube of El Toro. So less speed will work better, gotcha, gonna give that a try. I've never used the session marker is that the same as your place marker? I am seriously a newb, this is the first skate game I have ever played.

    The session marker is where you press LB (or L1 if youre PS3) and press down on the d-pad

    the session marker is what makes this game the greatest game ever. I was at my buddy's apt yesterday and he didn't use the session marker at all and it was painful to watch lol

    I play skate so much more than any other game that I try to go back to my session marker in other games. Something will go wrong in GTA and I'll kill a hooker with the wrong gun or something and try to go back to my session marker to redo it.

    You can also go fakie/switch from a powerslide.

    You dont even know how many times Ive done this same thing. Doesnt seem to matter what game it is either; its completely second nature now.

    Many times Ive also wished for a session marker in real-life too.

    I find that doing a tiny hippie (just tapping the buttons) makes for a super quick 180 to fakie.

    Reverts work as well. I'm a big fan of barely popping an ollie and doing a quick 180, though.
