There are four gold badges to collect:
- Keep Tricky alive for 180 seconds. Keep your combo going, long rails are good for this. You have infinite boost, use it to turn small hills into small tricks. Pieces of flare also count as tricks, so if you can hit these at the same time, it'll keep your combo going. Longer runs like Serenity on Makalu in the Himalayas are needed to keep Tricky running long enough.

Alternately, go to JT2 in the Rockies. Near the end of the run, there will be an old railroad you can grind on for a good ten seconds. Hit the rail while in tricky, grind to the end, then rewind back to the beginning for as long as it takes to unlock this. (Thanks perceptron3000!)
- Accumulate 3 hours spent in Tricky. See the above for how to stay in Tricky, this will come with repeated runs.
- Perform a Signature Trick with 9 unique characters. While in Super Tricky mode (when the Tricky symbol is glowing orange) do any trick while holding LT and RT. First, unlock:
SSX Team SSX The Team SSX achievement in SSX worth 16 pointsUnlock every member of Team SSX through World Tour (or purchase in Explore or Global Events)


Once you've done that, go to a run and pull out the signature trick with each character.
- Perform every Super Uber trick. This can be a pain, as there's no list that says which tricks you have or haven't landed. As a helpful note, if the badge progress says 93%, you're only missing one. These have to be done in Super Tricky, else it will count as a Super Uber trick for the Gold medal. As another note, keep in mind that if you land a 180 spin, the trick controls will be reversed.

For each trick, I have the right stick controls first, the button combinations second. There are thirteen aerial super ubers tricks and six grinds. Thanks to FoxA83 for pointing out that grinds count!

There is a simple way of keeping tricky alive and performing all super uber tricks at the same time.
Prepare for a jump while in tricky mode and just as you hit the ground, use the rewind feature so you can redo the jump. Just keep doing this until you have all super uber tricks and you should also get the maintain tricky badge in the process.
Not sure if 100% correct but I think you have to hit the ground for the trick to register, then its safe for you to use the rewind.

You can glitch yourself through the map and actually free-fall endlessly. While you won't be able to earn every single medal associated with earning the achievement, you can knock out quite a few of them. I demonstrate exactly where I go to glitch and free-fall, but with the way that it works, it seems that there may be other locations where you could do this as well!
