SSX

SSX is the first installment in a series of snowboarding video games that specialize in extreme sports titles with an unrealistic or arcade-style feel, featuring exaggerated jumps, elaborately designed runs, and improbable tricks. By winning medals in various disciplines, you unlock new courses, characters, and boards and improve the snowboarder’s skills. You can earn new outfits by completing a character’s trick book—that is, by performing a certain number of specific tricks during the game. Players have three types of boards at their disposal: trick-oriented freestyle boards, all-around BX boards, and race-oriented alpine boards, which are not meant to be ridden backward. The courses are located all over the world. The snowboarders also come from all over the world and speak in their native languages.
