practice on tracks you do horrible on in championship.

bunch of ramps where you can do many stunts. Look below to
see how to do the stunts.
2p vs. - Race your friend on your favorite track!
Options - Affect game play, save your records on your card,
whatever.
=======================================
II. TRACKS
In Wave Race you have four(4) skiers. They are listed below.
1. R.Hayami - He's my favorite racer in the game. Tighten his grip and
loosen his handling and he'll swerve less. He also gets
lots of air off jumps. But he doesn't pull of moves as
good as M.Jeter.
2. A.Stewart - She gets a good speed burst. Other then that, she's
worthless.
3. M.Jeter - The best at stunts. He can do stunts perfectly that other
racers have trouble with Also good at racing if there's
no waves.
4. D.Marier - I never use this guy so I don't know what to say. He does
have a terrible speed burst.
A. Dolphin Park
Used to warm up for normal championship mode, also a stunt track. Many
of the games codes are in this track.
B. Sunny Beach
The easiest track in the game. If you get 3rd or 4th place, shame on
you.
C. Sunset Bay
Another day of Wave Race comes to an end. But not before we race on
this track! This also is an easy track. You'll need those 7 points
here!
D. Drake Lake
Early in the morning while a light fog is out the racers are ready to
gear up for another race. This track is pretty challenging. The hardest
thing here is trying to steer through the stakes. If you get 1st place
on these 3 tracks you'll almost have enough points to beat Twilight
City!
E. Marine Fortress
There are a couple shortcuts in here. At the beginning try pressing
down on the control stick to get air time off those waves to jump over
the stone pillar there. Also in hard and expert on the 2nd lap a wall
will open up making a shortcut. This also happens in reverse but you
gotta go the other way. If you get 1st place on these 4 tracks, you
almost have enough points to beat Glacier Coast!
F. Port Blue
Not too hard. Can get a little confusing on reverse mode. There is one
shortcut where you have to steer through a narrow passage. On hard this
is an option(I recommend you skip it), and on expert and reverse it's a
necessity.
G. Twilight City
A day of racing is over, but the racers are still racing when the moon
is out. Can be pretty hard for the first-timer, but becomes pretty easy
one you get the hang of it. There's a shortcut at the beginning when
you jump over a wall at the beginning. On expert you need to
dive underneath. Look below to see how to dive.
H. Glacier Coast
Racing around in icy waters with just a diver suit on, but still can
perform at top notch in this track. Lotta ice ramps and ice balls to
get in your way. Also a big sheet of ice that can take you from 1st to
4th if your not careful.
I. Southern Island
After getting through the tough Glacier Coast and Twilight City tracks,
you come to a fairly easy track. There are two(2) shortcuts here. The
first one is when you jump off a ramp over a ship. The second one is
jumping on a ramp and diving underneath the bridge. On the second lap
you can just ski under the bridge.
=======================================
III. STUNTS
There are many stunts that can be done in Wave Race.
A. Regular Stunts
1. Handstand - Release throttle then press up on the control
stick, then down and hold.
2. Ride Backwards - Rotate the control stick clockwise and hold down.
3. Ride Standing - Rotate the control stick counterclockwise and
hold up.
4. Backwards Spin - Rotate the control stick clockwise and hold up.
5. Stand w/ Backflip - Rotate the control stick counterclockwise and
hold down.
B. Ramp Stunts
1. No hands - In the air press A and the control stick back and
forth.
2. Back Flip - Press up on the control stick on the ramp and
down when you get off.
3. Barrel Row - Press left on ramp and right when you get off.
Switch the direction do a counterclockwise roll.
4. Dive - Press down on the ramp and up when you get off.
5. Double Flip - Same as a flip but hold down longer.
6. Helicopter Flip - Press left-up or right-up on ramp and down when
you get off.
7. Helicopter Double - Hold down longer to do an extra flip. This the
Flip most points you can get on a stunt.
8. Triple Flip - This stunt sent in by LtHunter1@aol.com. It seems
you can only do this stunt at Glacier Coast on
the big ramp there and can only be done with
M. Jeter. You also need alot of speed. I've never
done this but I don't doubt it can't be done.
9. Helicopter Triple - If you can do a triple flip then you can do a
Flip helicopter triple flip =).
=======================================
IV. SECRETS & CODES
1. Ride the Dolphin
The hardest code in the game. With this code you'll be able to ride a
dolphin in the warm-up of normal championship. To access this you need
to go to Dolphin Park in Stunt Mode. Go through all the rings and do
these stunts in no particular order:
-Handstand
-Backwards Spin
-Stand w/ Backflip
-Barrel Roll both directions
-Back Flip(once)
-Dive
At the end you should hear dolphin noises. And in the beginning screen
you should see racers riding dolphins. To ride the dolphin go to
Championship, select normal, select warm-up, and while you are
selecting your racer, hold down on the stick or pad.
2. Baby Dolphins & a Whale.
In warm-up, follow the dolphin. Do whatever he does on the ramp for
two(2) laps. Then the dolphin should jump over a bridge. A baby
dolphin should be following you. Do this for thirty(30) laps and a
whale should be following you.
3. Mega Points on Stunt Mode.
Whenever you do a stunt, press start before you land. You should hear
the announcer say something. Do this for ever stunt you do. You will
get a ton of points at the end.
4. Unlock Twilight City Track.
Beat it on Hard Championship Mode.
5. Unlock Glacier Coast Track.
Beat it on Expert Championship Mode.
6. Unlock Reverse Mode.
Get 1st place on expert mode.

2. View Records
Look over the records to show your "I'll believe it when I see it"
friend that doesn't believe your 3000 point record at Glacier Coast.
3. Change Conditions
Change the conditions for the track's difficulty. You can change
conditions of hard and expert modes until you beat them at
championship.
4. Audio
Change the audio settings.
5. Erase Course Records
Erase the course records, I don't understand why you would want to do
that though.
6. Save and Load
Save the records to your Memory Card, so you can load them back if
your little sister doesn't know what she's doing. It takes a couple
pages.
=======================================
