How Do You Start the Earthquake on GameCube for Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 in Los Angeles?

"Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3" was released for the Nintendo GameCube in 2001. Each level of this skateboarding-themed game has its own series goals. You must complete a certain number of goals to unlock the next level. In the Los Angeles level, you must satisfy one goal by successfully executing a grind on four specific rails. These "earthquake rails" have a metallic brown tint instead of the standard gray.

Instructions

- 1
  Select the Los Angeles level from the Level Select menu.

  Turn left as soon as you start the level. Skate toward the rail closest to the building in front of you while holding the "A" button. Release the "A" button to jump when you get close to the rail. As you land, press and hold "Y" to grind. Keep your balance by pushing the joystick left or right as needed. Press "A" to jump off when you are near the end of the rail. Land with your skateboard straight and roll away to get credit for finishing the trick.
