How to unlock the Big Air Champ achievement

    If you notice that you bail a lot when going at speed off the ramps, try changing your setup so that you use softer wheels. This gives you more grip but less effective at powersliding (so designed for vert), also tightening your trucks so they don't wobble as much when you go fast.

    For those that use the right analog to gain extra pivot (so you can do 360s on flatland, and 540s etc online) try not to use it to get any extra spin coming off the large ramps as it is a lot harder to judge the right angle for the landing. With the board setup mentioned earlier if you use the natural spin from left analog alone you're a lot more likely to land (and you still easily get enough points to beat the ai).

    Also for the scores the highest the ai seems to get is about 17k in the initial rounds. If you're struggling to beat this, try restarting and you can get a luckier spawn with a top score of 14k.

    nostr0moAdjusting the setup of the board worked wonders. Recommend for everybody having problems.

    Ok so yeah mossfan563 has the basics. But most people find the hardest part the actual san van-a-slamma. So if you keep bailing off of the first ramps the key is go as fast as you can. Push until it makes you stop. You want to try and land on the curved part on the other side for a clean smooth landing. Also giving you a x3 bonus. And from there do the same thing. In the final jam session if you want to go back up to the big ramps just go to the end orange box and it will transport you back up there.

    To get this achievement, you pretty much have to win all the Tranny contests. Once you come in first place in the San Van-a-Slamma, the achievement will unlock.

    Chummy 8I found the hardest part about all the tranny contests was the big ramps in the Slamma. I had the hardest time landing the first drop ins. If you can pull a decent trick off the ramps, you're golden.

    mossfan563The hardest one I thought was the one with the rail and piece of ramp. I just jumped on that part and then ollied into some trick.
