Can anyone beat 272,000 points on Pipedream showoff?

How about 2min 29 seconds for completion of Tokyo Megaplex?

These are the scores I think I`ve done well to get. Feel free to laugh at them if they`re pants.

Put any other scores you have on this topic, and I`ll know what to aim for!!

Do you ever sleep ? That is a huge score.

I've got gold in all races and bronze in all showoffs.
Just working through to get silvers.
Have no idea how you get gold on some of them - the silvers are taking me ages and I just dont see how I can get any more jumps/leaps/twists into a run ...

Got to do it though - I need to see the final untracked course.
I assume you need to get all gold everything to see it ?

There is a competition in the latest edition of PSM2 magazine for the best SSX scores perhaps you should enter

To get decent jumps, hold the adrenaline boost before the jump, and then aim for a decent set of spins/flips, in which you should try two or more grabs so that you get combo points.

dmitch, I`m very impressed. I can believe the pipedream score because I made mistakes on my way down, but when I did that Tokyo megaplex time, I made no mistakes, and took every short cut I knew, yet you are quarter of a second ahead. There must be a short cut I haven`t seen.

As for the comp in PSM2, I am thinking about it, but the writers of the mag weren`t actually that good, and also I am unsure what you do to prove it. Do I just send in a photo of the records screen?

Sorry dmitch, I meant a quarter of a minute.

Sorry, I nearly forgot. To get the untracked course, you only need medals in all races, not gold. However, you do need gold in Aloha Ice Jam and Pipedream. If you already have golds in the races and bronzes in the showoffs, all you need is gold on Pipedream.

Are you using Mac, because he is the best at Tricks!!

dmitch, I`m improving on the pipedream score gradually, but I can`t get anywhere near your tokyo time. How did you do it????

Apologies if this has been asked elsewhere, but where is the 'trigger' on PipeDream? And does it help? I've got Golds easily on the other courses in race and showoff but PipeDream's a different story. Any tips for big points? Apart from using Mac, of course. Much appreciated.
