Has anyone else found this challenge in particular to be extremely unfair? I think after an hour straight Koston had 0 letters and Carroll had 2. They never make mistakes and it feels so unfair. Anyone else having this problem and if you beat it can you tell me how long it took and what you did, ty!

Just try to get as much spin on your tricks as possible..always try to double and triple up on your tricks, and try not to let them set the letters.

Just spin for a 360 and at the last rotation spin with the right analog stick to make it JUST barely a 540. They cannot ever, and I mean ever, do 540s. Simple way to win. Just don't repeat tricks and get stuck copying their hard tricks.

It is probably not as easy in Skate 2. I am only beginning off and I was taking on dude in attempting to spell S.K.A.T.E. Seems to nail 540's pretty easily, and set the tricks to be something which involves a 540.

i played for about a half hour and i never got to lead. the first guy never repeated or bailed.

I just spent 3 hours playing this challenge over and over and over, I find it so hard to just clear the gap, let alone do the tricks they set, and through all that time only one made a mistake, once, surly there's some kind of trick to this?

I have a pure hatred for this challenge.

Why did EA think this would be a good challenge

has anyone actually done this?

It's not as easy but it is do-able on that ramp. Just keep trying to do 540's.

With me its not so much of a problem setting the tricks, its more trying to do there ones.

I have a messed up control pad, basically the right stick is constantly getting stuck putting me into manuals and stuff. But when they set a trick im pretty sure im doing everything right but my guy will do a completely different trick and it will say i moved the stick in the opposite direction?

maybe i need a new pad before i try this challenge.

I was really close to winning it the other day. I got Koston out, and Carrol had SKAT. And then, yknow how if you push before you come up it like pushes you slow and messes you up, it did that and i landed on the stupid fence thing. And he ended up beating me.

But the easiest thing to do to get them letters is triple flips. Triple heel, triple heel 180, triple heel 360, triple kick, etc. As long as you get high enough up in the air your fine.

This is close to impossable, and EA are idiots for putting it on, check youtube for the cheat on how to get it done, it involves dragging a metal bike stand/fence thing where you trick, and then its easy sailing from then on.. anyway check youtube.

do a generic 360 trick and right before you land, foot plant and get another 180 spin in there. Computer players cannot do 540s so once it's your turn just do that and you'll have it beat in no time.

The Thing about playing S.K.A.T.E for me on Skate 2 it's that I always end up doing a different trick even if I move the right analog stick exactly how it says, Sometimes when I even wanna just do a simple ollie my character ends up doing a heelflip or somthing so I won't be able to do it.
