The first level that takes place outside the United States in the series, your skater's first competition is in France. The Bluetorch Pro Bowl Jam in Marseille is taken up by a huge pool with many curves and a few bumps. There are also a few curved rails along the pool and some funboxes to trick off.
Like the first game, competitions are done with three one-minute sessions and the lowest-scoring session is discarded. With no bails, you'll need around 60,000 to get your score into the 90s. A good start is heading straight for the funboxes against the wall. Launch off one of the funboxes, wallride and wallie, grind the top of the wall to the end, flip trick in the air, and grind the dumpster below for a good combo. If you're confident, you can manual after the dumpster and get to a curved rail near one of the bowls for another grind. Once you finish your combo, your special meter should be full; try to perform at least one special trick during another combo for a big score.
Another long street line can be done to the right of the starting point. Take a right past the dumpster and go down the ramp to find a short funbox with a rail. Jump over the funbox, grind the rail, jump off with a flip trick and aim for the ledge. Grind the short ledge and hop to the left toward the long dirt-filled planter. Grind the entire planter with a high-scoring trick and leap off with another flip trick. Again, you can keep going by manualing after the planter grind and head toward a curved rail near one of the bowls for a longer combo.
The giant pool is the main attraction. Turn to the left to find a couple of U-shaped pools that are perfect for continuous vert tricks. There's also a small quarterpipe at the end of one of these pools. At the start, head toward the part of the pool with the dumpster near its lip and air up. Once you come back down, head for the small quarterpipe. Stay straight and air off it as high as you can with a grab trick and at least a 540 rotation. You should get some gaps in the air that add to your score and come back down with a hefty total. A special grab trick and a No Comply or Boneless will definitely be helpful here.
Unlike the console version, the fountain area of Marseille is missing, so all cash icons are located in the main area.
$50: At the start, turn around to find the first $50 between two rails on top of a quarterpipe.
$50: At the start, make a slight right turn and you should find a rail with a $50 floating above.
$50: At the start, skate ahead to find a thin quarterpipe that has the next $50 at its lip.
$50: Go to the Lil 3 stairset for the next cash icon. From the top, grind the rail and ollie off the very end to reach it.
Grinding the crossbar.$50: Go to the triple bowl area and find the rails near the lip of the bowls. Between two of the rails is the final $50.
$100: Go to the double funboxes that are against the wall. Launch off one funbox and wallride to the top of the wall. Grind the edge to reach the cash.
$100: The final two cash icons are resting on top of the crossbar with the banner. Get enough speed to ollie up there by using the pool and grind it to get the cash. You'll have to ollie while grinding to reach it.
$100: As said before, it's up on the crossbar, only at the other end. Once again, don't forget to ollie when you reach it.
Over the Lil' 3: From the starting point, there should be a set of stairs with four steps and a rail. Ollie over it from top to bottom.
Up The Lil' 3: From the starting point, there should be a set of stairs with four steps and a rail. Ollie over it from bottom to top.
Up!: In the pool, there is a very narrow portion of the QP across the dumpster used for the Stanky Extension gap. Use a ramp to get some air, head toward the narrow QP while staying as straight as you can, and air up.
Up!!Up!!: This gap is the same as "Up!" only it's higher. Make sure to get some speed and Boneless for extra height.
And Away!!!: This gap is the same as "Up!" and "Up!!" but even higher than both of them. You'll need a lot of speed and high air and hangtime stats for this.
Humptey Humps: Air from one of the humps in one of the bowls to the large hump under the crossbar or vice versa. Like the previous gap, you'll need a lot of speed and a perfectly timed ollie for this.
Big Mouth: In the pool, transfer from one side of the QP near the banner, air over the entire space that leads to the bowls, and come back down at the other side. In the GBA version, you can also do this by grinding the lip of the QP, jumping over the gap, and grinding the other QP.
Box 2 Box Action: At the start, go slightly to the left to find two funboxes against a wall. You need to jump from one flat top to the other. Using the slopes of the funboxes will not count.
Dumpster Pop: Ollie over the long side of a dumpster.
Shorty Dumpster Pop: Ollie over the short side of a dumpster.
2 the Box: Near the Lil' 3 is a curved rail with one end facing a tiny funbox. Grind the rail and ollie toward the funbox. Your skater has to land on the middle of it.
Over the Crossbar: You should see a large crossbar in the level with lots of triangular flags hanging from it. From the starting point, go into the pool, under the banner, and get some speed in the left bowl. Then, face the right side of the crossbar while aiming toward a part of the bowl, ollie before the edge of the bowl, and you should air over the crossbar.
Big Ol' Stanky Gap: Get into the pool area to get some speed, then face the rectangular bowl that's near the two dumpsters. Air out of the pool and over the dumpsters.
Rail 2 Rail: There is a wooden quarterpipe between two ramps with rails on them. Grind one of those rails and ollie to the other.
Rail X-Ing: Grind the ledge near the Lil' 3 and air over the stairs, grinding the ledge on the other side.
Rail 2 Ledge: Near the Lil' 3 is a curved rail and a funbox. Grind the rail at the end near the funbox, hop at the end, and grind the ledge in front of you.
Ledge 2 Rail: Same as "Rail 2 Ledge", except you're grinding the ledge and jumping toward the curved rail.
Around We Go: Near the Lil' 3 is a curved rail and a funbox. Grind the entire curved rail.
Ledge 2 Dirt: Near the curved rail is a ledge. Grind the ledge and ollie toward the dirt-covered planter for another grind.
Dirt 2 Ledge: Same as "Ledge 2 Dirt", except you're grinding the planter and jumping toward the ledge.
Dumpster StompDumpster Stomp: Go to the giant wooden wall with the two funboxes, air off one of the funboxes, wallride, and grind the top of the wall. Keep going until your skater suddenly turns toward the long dumpster below and grind it.
Dumpster Flank: From the start, turn a bit to the right and head down to find a curved rail. Start from the end near the two dumpsters and grind it. Jump at the very end toward the lone dumpster and grind the edge of it. You'll need some good speed for this.
Rail 2 Dirt: Grind the rail adjacent to the planter and then jump to the planter for another grind.
Dirt 2 Rail: Like "Rail 2 Dirt", only you grind the planter first and then jump to the rail.
Crossbar Stomp: You should see a large crossbar in the level with lots of triangular flags hanging from it. Using any part of the pool, air out of the bowl with a well-timed ollie and grind the crossbar. It will take a few tries as it's easy to under or overshoot it.
La Marseillaise: Start by jumping off the left funbox against the wall and wallride to the top of the wall. Grind the top to the edge and your skater should be angled toward the dumpster below. Grind that and land in a manual toward a curved rail near the bowls. Grind the rail, jump off to perform another manual, and grind the second rail near the bowls. Then jump off again and manual toward the last rail near the bowls and finally manual one more time when you reach the end.
Bonapark: For this line, follow the La Marseillaise line until you reach the second rail near the bowls. After grinding that rail, ollie off it and grind the lip of the bowl. When the dumpster is in view, jump off the bowl and manual toward the planter. Grind the planter's edge until you see the ledge, then jump off and grind that. Afterward, jump off the ledge and grind the curved rail ahead. Finally, jump off the end of the rail and land on the small funbox ahead.
