  • Summary: SSX Tricky launches you into a world of monster air, intense tracks, and death-defying tricks. Six all-new competitors plus six riders from the original SSX make up the circuit. Compete in the World Circuit, go head-to-head in the Showoff versions of nine courses on the World Circuit, or just practice in Free Ride. With all-new Garibaldi and Valdez courses, you'll have plenty of huge cliff drops to catch big air and pull off Uber tricks. Expand

    It has great competitive factions, a large line-up of diverse skaters, and some of the most mind-blowing, thumb-numbing, breathtaking tricks yet seen on a console snowboarding game.
  2. My first and only gripe about the game is the learning curve on the game's controls.
  3. I am truly amazed at how well the GameCube controller performs with SSX Tricky.
  4. It’s a great game, but it lacks the bells and whistles within the founding PS2 release. [Feb 2002, p.87]

    Now, I'm not a big fan of snowboarding games. But this has to be one of the slickest extreme sports games ever.

    There aren't many gc games i consider to be 'must own'. but this is definately one of them. it puts most other snowboarding games to shame. Expand

    In some ways this game is still better than SSX3. They're both awesome, must-own games for any system!
  4. This game blew my mind when I first played it! The characters were amazingly diverse and the replay value is some of the highest I've ever seen in a game. Easily my favorite game on the GameCube. If you have one, you better have this game or your missing out. Expand
