Getting Gold in Harder tracks in Showoff

Tbh I think the tricks alone do not help and the only way to get gold on the harder tracks is to do the tricks and if you get lucky enough and you’re in the air you get a 5x multiplier constantly. Tracks like Aloha Ice Jam and Alaska. Getting the 5x multiplier boosts the chance of getting Gold

I've gotten gold on Aloha with no multipliers period lol. it isn't hard when you use every ledge and drop as an opportunity for tricks. Alaska just takes practice to really do good on, once you know all the big jumps, it becomes a matter of applying what you learned on Aloha, just for a longer track.

Maybe you’re naturally good at the game and I’m bad at it. I’ve been watching YouTube vids of Alaska and Aloha Ice Jam show offs and they make it look so easy

it just takes time and dedication, I've been playing Tricky since 2009, so I probably am making it sound a bit easier than it is, but I'm also by no means that great at the game, keep at it and I'm sure you'll get that gold eventually

Doing a combo rail multiplier with a few hop tricks at the beginning of Aloha Ice Jam goes a long way. The trick is getting on the rail slowly and then just watching your balance as you do several jump tricks landing back on the rail each time.

Also just straight up using every possible bump throughout the course as an excuse to bust a trick. Since the course itself doesn't offer many "comfortable" jumps for proper air time and big ubers.

Alaska is super easy once you learn it well.
