  "You control the board with the stylus: move it left or right to send your board in those directions, drag it from the bottom to the top of the touch screen to jump, and during jumps, make a circular motion with the stylus (while you're still in the air) to perform a trick. Perhaps more tricks can be unlocked later in the game, but for right now, that's all that was available during the demo."

• Sony PSP
  
  

  Quote:

  "You'll spend most of the game upgrading various characters; doing so by applying points into skill trees that results in things such as being able to pull off more tricks, or riding down faster on the next mountain. The slopes themselves also appear have some breadth -- especially compared to the DS version -- with a variety of paths to traverse. And unlike on the DS, it doesn't feel like you're stuck on a linear slope looking for the next jump."
