In Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3, the skate park in Canada is perfect for long sequences of moves and tricks, which is exactly what you need to complete the “Impress the Skaters” mission.
Canada is still the second map you unlock in the revamped version of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4. Because of that, you need to complete as many missions in this level as you can to unlock the Rio, the first competition park. The “Impress the Skaters” goal is a good option to focus on, because you can complete other missions at the same time.
Below, we explain how to impress the skaters in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 Canada level and some tips on how to achieve the scores you need.
How to impress the skaters in THPS 3
To complete the Canada “Impress the skaters” mission, you need to hit scores of 5,000 points or higher next to five skaters who are spread around the skatepark. There isn’t a predetermined method or any specific trick you need to include in your combo to impress them. We do have, however, a few suggestions if you’re having trouble hitting 5,000.
Part of the challenge to complete this goal is to do it within the time limit. With this in mind, we came up with the following route. To impress the first skater, who is next to the starting area, you can go for a slide, manual plus any other move combo in the bowl to hit the score you need.
After this one, your next target should be the skater to the right of the first skater’s bowl. They’re standing at the top of a vertical ramp. You can start heading to where they are located doing a flip and holding a manual until you reach the top of the ramp. When you get there, perform a slide. If you don’t fall, you’ll definitely get a high enough score.
The next three skaters are close to each other. The third you should focus on is located to the left of the first skater at the top of another vertical ramp. You can follow the same strategy we used with the second skater to impress this third one since the structures around them are similar.
The fourth skater is to the right side of the third. To get the points you need, start by skating on the rail in front of them, follow it up by doing a manual, and then using the ramps for an ollie and a couple of flips.
The last skater is close to the fourth one near the tallest ramp in the area. You can get a good combo with aerial tricks connected by reversals and manuals. Another option you have is to use the edge of the ramps to slide, drop connecting a manual, and then doing a simple aerial.
You’ll want to practice this route a couple of times before landing all the points you need. Besides memorizing their locations, you need to land all the tricks without falling to be sure to hit the scores you need. If you don’t want to stress too much about it, you can activate the “No Bails” mod in the Game Mods section in the Options menu to prevent you from falling. This mod doesn’t guarantee a 5,000+ combo, but at least makes the task less punishing.
