HAWAII
Secret tape: Climb the hotel that you start at. Get to the roof and to the right of the pipe on the right is the side of the building. Grind that ledge onto the wire to get the secret tape.
Venice level bonus: In Hawaii, you can unlock the Venice level from Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2. From the large hotel you start at, follow the main road all the way around in either direction. When you find the strip of buildings that are opposite on the map from the hotel, you will find a large tiki head. Alternately, go out the front doors of the hotel and through the plaza all the way out the other side. Jump inside the tiki head's mouth to find a secret area. Skate down the tunnel until the end and boneless into the air to grab the unlock for the Venice level. Note: Think of the map as a square. If the beach is at the bottom, the tiki head is on the top side of the map. It is much easier to get inside the tiki head's mouth if you dismount your board first.
Secrets: A secret area is found near the "Off The Walls" mission. Go to the evil tiki, then turn left following the road. Turn right when you get over the speed bump and you will get to a quarterpipe that says "Dead End". Spine transfer over the quarterpipe and you will get a gap that says "Welcome to Wallows." There is not much to do here, but there is a mission. If you jump up into the lawns, it sometimes says something like "Chihuahua Death!"

HOTTER THAN HELL
Secret tape: Get KISS once to unlock the video, then get it again to get the concert to start. When they are playing, use the doors on either side of the door that you can go through to the other side of the level. It will take you to the top of the level. You will see the secret tape in the air in front of you.
Secret tape (2): Make your way up onto the catwalks, where they cross over the Kiss stage. Jump down off of the catwalk and onto the top center part of the stage. Then, grind on the ledge that raises up near the center. When you reach the last part that it rises, jump and you will fly up and grab the tape. Once you land, you also will get the gap.
Freak show: Go behind the KISS stage to find a Freak Show stage. You will see things such as a human head, a man sticking swords down his mouth, a woman with a cinder block on her stomach, and a man with a sledge hammer.
10,000 point gap: Find the Go-Kart. Drive the Go-Kart around until you find a huge ramp that goes over the center of the level. Drive off it as fast as possible and you will clear a gap that gives you 10,000 points.

MANHATTAN
Secret tape: When you start, go down the street to the left of the worker with the jackhammer . At the end of the street is a lit up billboard with a ladder. Climb the ladder, then jump and grab the ledge. The tape is there for the taking.
Hitch a ride: When skating in Manhattan, it is possible to ride in the back of the DC trucks driving around the city. Skate behind one and jump into the back when you get a chance. Doing so will allow you hitch a ride around the block.

MOSCOW
Secret tape: Go to the semicircle at St. Basil's (the building with a lot of spires), get off of your board, and walk up the ramp on the building. Next, jump and pull yourself up the wall. Get next to the center spire and double jump onto one of the corners. If done correctly, you will not slide down. Look up and you will see a bridge connecting the center spire to another spire. Double jump on the wall in front of you, move onto the bridge, and pull yourself up. The tape is on this walkway.
Hanger level bonus: Find the place where there are a lot of tanks and a building that reads "AEHNH". Stand in front of the building to the left. Line your self with the brown ledge. Climb up it. Stand on the brown ledge that you are about to grind on. If you are in the correct location, to your left should be a tree and straight ahead should be a big red building palace-looking thing. Grind that ledge and jump toward the previous viewed window. You should go down a ramp. Where the ramp is located, is a ramp that goes up on the right, revealing the secret level as you went down the ramp.
Straight Outta Moscow goal: When you get left behind in Russia, find Kalo (the man who asked you to blind the cameras). He will give you a bag and say that nobody can see you with it. This mission is frustrating because of the nightvision goggles you have to wear. There is a ladder near the pay phone where you start. Climb it and turn right to find another ladder. Climb it, but be careful as a guard will walk by. After he is away from you, get off your board. There is another guard standing. Turn the camera and enable the "Moon gravity" cheat. Climb onto the ledge. Turn yourself so that you are straight with the statue in front of you. Jump once, then push yourself forward slightly. You should be on top of the statue. Jump over the guard and land back on the walkway. Walk all the way to the right and there will be another ladder (which will be flashing). Climb it then jump down into the quarterpipes. Walk out onto the castle. Look down and you will see Aleksander waiting. Jump down onto the ground and walk up to him.
Fatality! gap: Ollie into the snowman's head to knock it off. Blood and snow will squirt from where his head was located.

NEW JERSEY
Secret tape: Go under the bridge on the side that allows you to do so. The tape will be floating there for your taking.
School level bonus: In New Jersey, you can unlock the School level from Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2. Cross the bridge, then get on top of the large building immediately afterwards. Shimmy across the tall gate and pull yourself onto a ledge. It will be on the ledge alongside a tall building.
Drive car: In story mode, after you complete the driving mission in Jersey, go up to the car to drive it.
Funny messages: Go to the station, then go down to the track area. Turn down the music all the way and listen to the intercom. You will hear messages such as, "Please step back from the track. You may lose appendages", "If you miss your train, tough luck", "Tickets will be void if not real", and many other funny things.

SAN DIEGO
Secret tape: When you first enter the level, go straight ahead until you reach the street. Follow the street until you get to your first left hand turn. After this turn you will see a set of stairs at the end of the road. Go to the top of the stairs and look directly ahead. There is a concert-like building in front of you. On the left upper side of that building, you will see the secret tape. Use the quarterpipe on the lower level behind the building to get up there. Then, just jump up the quarterpipe to get the secret tape.

SLAM CITY JAM
Secret tape: Go to the vert ramp and get off your board. Climb up onto the lights hanging from the ceiling and walk over to the big four-sided television screen. Walk into it and the glass should break. The secret tape will be inside... The secret tape is in the Jumbotron. You have to grind the rail that goes through it.
Tour title: On the big half-pipe on the railing, it will say "Boom Boom Huck Jam", which is Tony Hawk's tour title.
Music change: Skate over to the judges table. There is a DJ turntable just to the right of it. If you grind on this turntable, the music will change to a new song. Note: Grinding the turntable is also a gap.

TAMPA
Secret tape: Go down to the big skate park. Enter the room across from where the contest was located and go through the chains. You will end up on the road. Take a right and drive down to the end of the road. There should be a house with a grind pole coming down into one of the corners of it. Get off your board and jump onto it. Get back on your board and ride up the big grind pole. Then, an Indy or another move to fall through the hole between the quarterpipes. You should fall onto the secret tape. If not, go off the jump down there then jump up to it.
Pole dancer: Go to the the strip club. Get off your skateboard and walk up the ramp on either side of the club. Grind on the ridges on the edges of the bubble on top of the strip club. This will cause the bubble to break. You can now get get to the top floor of the club. Inside the room are two businessmen and a stripper. There is also a little door in that same room. If you walk through it, you will exit out of the front door and the message "Four hours and four-hundred dollars later" will appear.

VANCOUVER
Secret tape: Start at the entrance of the stadium (where the parked trucks are located, and where you get into the contest. From there, look at the tape. You should see it above the glass dome behind the subway-like spline entrance. Go down left from here and wait for a vehicle to drive out of the tunnel. Skitch it towards where you started from. Make sure you are on the left side of the car. When you are about to pass the subway entrance spline, get of the vehicle and spline the entrance from the side. This will launch you across the dome into the secret tape.
Play hockey: Drive the leaf blower cart into the lower level in the center of the city. There is a hockey rink located here. Drive the leaf blower cart onto the rink and run into the puck. If you get it in the net, "GOAL!" will appear on your screen.

GENERAL HINTS AND PLAYING TIPS
Switch tricks: Riding switch is the opposite of what your rider is used to. If you have a regular stance rider, then switch would be the goofy stance for them, and vice versa. When you do switch tricks, you get more points than what you would normally get for doing it in regular/goofy form. For example, doing a Kickflip (regular) results in 100 points, but a Switch Kickflip gets 120 points. It makes a larger difference on bigger tricks such as specials.
Hold on trick: Enable the "Moon gravity" cheat and go to create-a-trick. For your first line, put in Front (or Back) flip. Then, switch it to 180 degrees. This will make your skater flip halfway. Set the duration between .4 and .7 seconds. On the next line, put an Other>Handstand. Have him hold it. This will make your skater flip halfway, get off his board, then hold on for dear life. This looks good if you get enough air.
Pushoff manually: To pushoff manually. go to the options menu and select "Edit Controls". Then, turn "Autokick" off.
Extra points: Do a trick off a vert ramp. Then, jump off your board. While the timer is still going, do tricks on your feet for extra points.
Getting to hard to reach areas: During any time that you can set a restart from the options menu (in game), you can use it to get to areas otherwise impossible to reach. Ollie then pause game play before you start coming down. Set a restart while in the air. Then, go to the restart, quickly Ollie again, then set the restart at the top of the Ollie again. By repeating this you will get higher and higher, and may be able to access rooftops and ledges (if you are close enough).
Easier game completion: If you are stuck on the final mission, all you have to do is complete a total of 96 missions to finish the game. In order to unlock the bonuses, backtrack to an incomplete goal (for example, the first chapter), and you will see the videos. This works especially well if you are completing sick mode, considering the final challenge has a considerably shorter period of time to finish. Note: You must have completed the game once beforehand to be able to skip it the next time.
