4 Exciting Key Missions (1 and 2)

Win the Tony Hawk AMJAM:

In this highly entertaining sequence of missions, the player must gain access to Tony Hawk’s rep-building amateur contest by raising enough money and then beating out a local skater for the final spot in the tournament. Once you’ve qualified, you engage in an ElimiSkate competition where at the end of each round, the skater with the lowest score is eliminated. If you’re the last one standing, you win. Unfortunately, after you win, you accidentally rat out Iggy and he gets thrown into jail.

Finding Tony Alva:

These missions take place in Santa Monica, and present some extremely tough challenges to players. After gaining access to Santa Monica by beating Daewon Song in a series of flatland tricks, the player has to impress Tony Alva’s bros by performing a series of crazy tricks. Impress them and you’ll make it to Alva, who challenges you to show him your old-school skills. The finale to this level is fantastic – you have to get dressed up in an alien suit, scare off the Carnie running the roller coaster, and destroy the Ferris wheel.
