Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2/Skate Heaven

The culmination of all your hard work: Skate Heaven. Somewhere in space, this final level has a huge assortment of iconic skate spots: Anaheim's Sadlands, Pipeline's Combi Bowl, the Animal Chin ramp, San Dieguito's Stairset, The Wallows, and Tony Hawk's backyard. All these spots surround a gigantic volcano that could blow at any moment! Be sure not to fall down when jumping from spot to spot.

Strategy
With so many iconic skating spots in one area, this level is the largest of the bunch and you could get lost if you don't know where everything is. Your skater starts near a glass halfpipe. Beyond that is the Combi, a clover-shaped bowl and the top of the Snake Run (also called the Pipeline), a downward path with three U-turns ending in a full pipe toward Tony's Island, his backyard with wooden vert ramps built in. From the start, if you do a 180, you'll be in The Wallows, a concrete bank from Honolulu with some ramps and fencing. The bottom of the Wallows will take you to The Sadlands, where it has rows of benches, twisty paths, and curved rails. Adjacent to the Sadlands is the San Dieguito stairset which leads up to Tony's Island.

For vert skating, the best way to get points is definitely Tony's Island with its complex half-pipe system. Other good spots are the glass HP at the starting point, the Combi bowl, and the secret Animal Chen area. To get to that area, you need to grind the "Time 2 Feed the Volcano!!!"gap, then go to the top of the Wallows and gain some speed with the vert-like ramps before airing forward to the volcano itself. You'll end up in a small area with a complex vert setup and you can leave it by going to the Neversoft headstone. For street skating, Sadlands has plenty to grind with the edges of the Snake Path and the Bench Series Gap having plenty to make long combos. Tony's Island also has a couple of good rails with the edges of the vert ramps and the long gutter along the roof that connects to two different rails. Whichever style of skating you pick, be careful not to fall down as it's much easier to do that than you think.

 * San Dieguito Hall 2 Sadlands (50 points): Ollie from the top of the San Dieguito stairset to the Sadlands.

 * Platform Gap (300 points): Get to the top of the largest ramp on Tony's Island and ollie to the right on the lower platform.

 * Big Fat Grassy Gap (400 points): At San Dieguito, there's a small patch of grass between it and the Sadlands. Jump over a wider portion of it. Use the San Dieguito Rail to help you get speed for it.

 * Sadlands Path Gap (800 points): In the Sadlands, go to the four-way intersection of the giant path. Near there, there's a path that leads into the intersection and the rocky sides the path is between can be used like ramps. Use them to air over the path with a lot of distance. You might have better luck using the right side as the Sadlands snake path is in the way of the left side.
 * Northwest Snake Gap (800 points): Near the Sadlands Path Gap and the four-way intersection of the snake path, there's an entrance to the Sadlands Snake Path. Use the ridge that's below the entrance like a vert ramp and air over the entrance.
 * Northeast Snake Gap (800 points): Across the Northwest Snake Gap at the other side of the pit is another entrance to the Sadlands Snake Path. Use the ridge that's below the entrance like a vert ramp and air over the entrance.
 * Up 2 Combi (1000 points): At Tony's Island, use the halfpipe to gain some speed, then air out of it toward the Combi bowl area.
 * Reverse Wussy Snake Gap (1000 points): At the snake run, air over the bottom bend, but from the lower part instead of the higher part.
 * Southern Snake Gap (1000 points): Near the giant hole at Sadlands, there's the southern entrance to the Sadlands Snake Path. Use the ridge surrounding the giant hole as a vert ramp and air to the right, over the path, and land on another rocky ridge below. It may take a few tries to land safely at the other side.
 * Sadlands Up 2 Isle of Tony (1000 points): At the Sadlands, go to the grey path that's near the giant pit. There should be a raised grassy edge that points toward Tony's Island. Use that edge to ollie toward Tony's Island.
 * Over the Dome (1000 points): ): At the Sadlands, there's a circular jungle gym. Use the ridge surrounding the jungle gym to ollie over it.
 * Clearing the Swings (1000 points): At the Sadlands, ride along the main gray path until you get near the two sets of curved rails. Using the slightly raised land right by the path, ollie at the very edge and clear over one set of curved rails. Use the nearby hub if you need some extra speed.
 * Jumpin Da Hub (1000 points): In the Sadlands, there's a wooden, pentagon-shaped hub in the middle of a path. Use one of its side to air over the entire hub.
 * Tunnel of Luvin (1000 points): At the Animal Chin area, after doing the "Blowin It Out the Hole!" gap, go through the hole in the halfpipe.
 * THPS2 SkateHeavenZagGap.pngZig Gap (1500 points): At the Snake Run, air over the top bend. You have to cover greater distance than the Weak Sauce gap to get this one.

 * Reverse Zig Gap (2000 points): Starting from a lower part of the Snake Run, air over the top bend. Use the Snake Run to gain speed before you attempt this as you'll need a lot to clear it.
 * Reverse Zag Gap (2000 points): Starting from a lower part of the Snake Run, air over the middle bend. Like the Reverse Zig Gap, you'll need a lot of speed for this.
 * Feed Me!!! (2000 points): Air toward the volcano in the middle of the map. The best way to reach this is by going to the top area of the Wallows and using the slanted areas like a makeshift halfpipe to gain speed. Once you have enough, just air forward toward the volcano.
 * Pit O Doom!!! (4000 points): At the Sadlands, there is a huge hole near San Dieguito. After getting your special meter filled and some speed, use the edge of the platform to launch over the hole and land on the ground.

Grind Gaps

Other Gaps

 * Woohooo Oh Ho Yeehee!!! (2500 points): One side of San Dieguito is a solid wall with a small concrete platform sticking out. Use the ramps at Tony's Island to gain speed, then go to the left of San Dieguito to wallride the building. You need to have enough speed to wallride and ollie to the small platform for this gap.
 * Cleaning the Pipes (5000 points): Do a full loop in the fullpipe. Unlike the loop in Bullring, you will fall off if you simply ride up. To prevent this, get Special and use the Snake Run's ramps to gain full speed. When you approach the tunnel to perform the gap, ollie just as you start to go up. The timing has to be just right or your skater will lose speed and bail.
