Story Mode - PlayStation 3 Owner's Manual

NAIL THE TRICK – When in NAIL THE TRICK mode you can control your board using the
SIXAXIS ™ wireless controller (PLAYSTATION ® 3). Tilt and twist the controller and watch the
board spin in the same direction. Return the controller to its starting position and your
skater will plant his feet.
Remap Tricks
In Story and Online play you can remap your skater's tricks. Enter the View Tricks menu
under Your Skater in the pause menu. You can then edit grinds, grabs, flips, inverts,
flatland and special tricks. Your skater is given three default Special Tricks which you
cannot remap.

STORY MODE

You'll be presented with story-specific missions throughout Story mode. To progress
through the game and see all the cities and skate spots, you'll need to complete certain
missions. Characters who give missions in the game will glow. Get close to the
character and you'll be able to press the √ button to interact with them.
Your Skate Lounge: Your Skate Lounge is your playground for you to personalize with
interactive and decorative skate pieces that you can earn or buy throughout your career.
While in your skate lounge, manage your items through the Pause menu, or use the
Rigger menu to drop ramps, kickers and rails.
Tutorial: At the start of your story you will be presented with three story goals to give
you a taste of each path available to you—Hardcore, Rigger and Career. You will also be
presented with four tutorial goals recapping Skill Challenges from Tony Hawk's Project 8
and introducing the NEW Photo and Film goals. You must complete these goals to
unlock others.
Stokens: In Tony Hawk's Proving Ground your skater is rewarded with stokens each
time you impress the locals with awesome skate tricks. You can steal stokens from
pedestrians by knocking them over on your board, but look out because they just might
hit you back and steal yours. You can use these stokens to purchase items in your
Skate Lounge.
