About This Game
Introduced the 'Trick Meter' system where players could chain together grabs, spins and flips to build massive combos, with the 1080-degree spin as the ultimate move.
Used advanced motion capture to animate boarder movements, including realistic weight shifts and wipeouts that affected control.
The multiplayer mode supported split-screen competitions with CPU-controlled avalanches that could disrupt races.
