Heads in the ramp

Does it work? --> Confirmed. It works, but we've only gotten it in two-player mode. And we haven't tried it in the other versions of the game.

In Skater Island, open the beach area by grinding on the pirate flag. Then, skate to the ramp shown in the picture that is at the right of the entrance. Hold down the ollie button (A for the Gamecube) and skate up the ramp. Ollie as high as you can (release the button) so you travel high up onto the hill behind the ramp. Don't do many tricks, but we've been able to do this while doing a Boneless. If you're lucky, you will crash back down into the ramp and land upside down, stuck in the ramp. There is no way out unless you restart the run. We had trouble doing this in Free Skate mode, but could do it easily in 2-player mode. Sometimes you'll also get stuck halfway through the hill. It's interesting stuff.

This ramp is the one you want to ollie onto
The final product... wonderful, isn't it?

Play Suburbia in Career Mode with Darth Maul. Now, grind the jeep closer to the trailer park. The game will freeze and make a high pitched sound. You don't even need to grind it - just go near it, or ollie onto it. But, grinding it will give it the beep.

Stuck with the spikes

Does it work? --> Confirmed. It exists- but how do you do it?

Sometimes when you get hit and then fall into a pit of spikes or fall at a strange angle, you will land in the spikes and suffer no damage. You'll be stuck in the pit, running through the spikes and never getting hurt. This has happened to us a couple of times before, but we're not quite sure how to pull it off...

Go into the design-a-park mode. Now, use the water tool and make an area with water and next to it make an area of water one that is sunken into the ground (using the L button, make it lower). Now, play the park. You'll be able to grind the corner where the water drops down although you're not supposed to be able to go through the water. If you put more water in front of the grinding area, you'll run into it after the grind and die. You can do this with lava, but you can only grind certain edges of lava. It's hard to grind the spikes.

You can only grind this edge of the lava.




Turn invisible

Use Demoness and go into any level. Perform the manual "Visiting Home" when she is special. When she is below the ground, skate up a ramp and press Y when you reach the lip to do a lip trick. It may take a couple of tries, since she tends to go into grinds when she's underground. But, after doing it correctly, Demoness will go above the ground, but she'll be invisible. You can still see the board, "religious table" and fire. You can skate around like this performing tricks, and you can even smash into people. But, if you perform a grind or manual, she'll turn back to normal. Also, she'll just sometimes randomly turn normal after doing a jump.
