One of two downhill levels in the game, this New York mall stretches out for miles. It's a shame that all stores are closed, but there are plenty of balconies to leap from, ledges to grind, and stairs to air over. Be careful riding into the water or you'll slow down significantly.

10,000 / 30,000 Points[edit]

A downhill level expects players to go from one end to the other, but there is no consequence for not reaching the finish line in time, so use this advantage to stick in one spot if you need a few more points to beat these goals. For vert skaters, the beginning has some quarter pipes hugging the walls which can be used to build up the special meter. The parking area and the atrium have some decent ramps to air off as well as few bonus points to catch. Street skaters have a few lines they can follow for big combos. The most rewarding one is attempting the Look Out Below gap and landing on any of the four rails ahead. Grind the entire rail and jump off with a flip trick for a massive combo score.

Destroy 5 Directories[edit]

There are five large maps etched on glass that you have to skate through to beat this goal. It's highly recommended you skate through all of these in order since they're spaced out across the map.

The second directory just over that barrier.
  1. When you enter the mall, go up to the second floor to find the first directory waiting to be smashed.
  2. A second directory rests on the very top of a balcony. After you destroy the first balcony, ride the ramp toward the fountain's hole and ollie to it. Keep going straight up another ramp and jump to the balcony where the second directory lies. If you miss the jump, you can still reach it by going to the ramp at the left side and making a u-turn toward the directory.
  3. This one is placed to the right of the ramp that's nearby a restaurant named Pizza Face.
  4. The fourth one is in front of a curved sculpture that leads to the atrium.
  5. Resting at the end of the atrium and past the ramps that launch you over a body of water is the final directory.

Get S-K-A-T-E[edit]

It's highly recommended to get these letters in order as they're spread out pretty far; you may not have enough time to skate back for any letters you missed.

  • S - Just before the mall entrance, there is a rail to the left that has the first letter.
  • K - Down at the fountain area, there are some grindable planters to the right with the K hovering above it.
  • A - One section has a shallow body of water with two rails over it. The A waits at the end of the left rail.
  • T - Before the atrium, there is a sculpture that's basically two curved rails. Grind the left one to get the T.
  • E - The final letter is at the atrium, over a body of water that's between two ramps. Make sure to ollie at the right time because landing on the water will slow you down.

Hidden Tape[edit]

Grinding the suspended wires.

Above the small pool with two rails over it are two suspended wires that you can grind. At the end of the left wire is the secret tape. The only way to reach those wires is by going to the highest balcony. There are two ways to get to the balcony. The first path requires going up to the second floor after entering the mall. Once up there, ramp off toward the fountain, go through the hole in the fountain toward another ramp, and ollie to the balcony. The other way is past the fountain where there's a slope you can ride up. At the balcony, gain some speed and grind on the right edge. Ollie at the very end and you should land on a wire. If you're on the right wire, make sure to transfer to the left wire or you won't reach the tape.

Point Locations[edit]

100 Points
  1. From the starting point, there is a rail to the left of your skater with a 100 floating on it.
  2. The second 100 is inside the fountain's statue. You can reach it by going up to the second floor and jumping toward it from the edge.
  3. At the pool with the two rails over it, the next bonus rests at the end of the right rail.
  4. To the right of the pool with two rails is a bookstore with a breakable glass entrance. Go through the glass to find another 100 and the caged door will open to let you continue.
  5. The final one is above the Pizza Face sign. Use the large kicker to jump up and grind the top of the sign to reach the bonus.
200 Points
  1. To the left of the ramp that leads to the top balcony is a set of stairs with a 200 over it.
  2. At the far right of the mall, just past the fountain, there's a balcony with a parked car. Grind the left railing of the balcony and ollie off to reach the 200 in the air.
  3. Just before the two-railing sculpture, there is a crossroad with the 200 in the middle. Use the short bumps to ollie toward it.
  4. The final 200 is high up in the atrium before the ramps that launch you over the water. Use the planters to ollie off them and reach it. Be sure to angle yourself just right.
500 Points
  1. At the end of the Fountain Gap, there is a curved ramp with the first 500 on it.
  2. In the parking area with the elevators, a 500 flies high above an elevator shaft.
  3. Another 500 rests at the other elevator shaft in the parking area.
  4. Adjacent to Pizza Face, there's a set of escalators with a 500 above one of them. Use the divider in the middle of the escalators to ollie toward it.
  5. After the atrium, there's a 32 stair set that leads to the exit with a 500 floating above it.
  6. This one is at the same area as the previous one, only even higher.

Gaps[edit]

  • 32 Step From Mezzanine: Before you exit the atrium, there's a ramp that will help you up toward a higher floor with a showcase of boxes on top. That's the mezzanine. When you reach the end of the floor, ollie over the stair set that leads you to the exit.
  • Coffee Grind: To the left of the fountain, there's a coffee shop with a rail nearby.
  • The Flying Leap: At the highest balcony, simply ollie off the edge toward the suspended rails. You don't have to grind the rails for this gap to register.
  • For The Whole Atrium: In the atrium, there are two high ledges on both sides. Grind the entire length of one of the ledges.
  • Fountain Gap: Going up to the second floor from the mall entrance, ride down a curved ramp that leads to a hole in the fountain. Jump into the hole for this gap.
  • Going Down Gap: Near the pool with two rails over it is a "parking" area with quarter pipes and two elevators. Ramp over the elevator shaft to the right of the parking sign.
  • Going Up Gap: Similar to the Going Up Gap, air over the elevator shaft to the left of the parking sign.
    Leaping to the planter for the Rail Combo gap.
  • Over A 16 Stair Set: To the left of the ramp that leads you up to the highest balcony is a set of stairs. Ollie over the entire set.
  • Over A Huge 32 Stair Gap: This is similar to 32 Step From Mezzanine, except you must jump over the final set of stairs from the main floor instead of the top floor.
  • Planter Gap: On the first floor at the mall's entrance, there's a set of flat planters in front of Thrashed Records. Grind all three in one combo.
  • Rail Combo: There are two ways to get Rail Combo. Go up to the second floor after entering the mall. You can take a right toward a rail sticking out of the edge. Grind that rail, ollie, and land in another grind at the planter below. The other way is taking a left toward another rail sticking out and grinding that toward the Coffee Rail below. Both ways require precise timing on your ollie.
  • Skater Escalator Gap: Right by the Pizza Face restaurant are two escalators side by side. Jump over them completely.
