AA (All-Around) Any% Guide/Starting Point

I haven't been able to record my attempts but as of the time of writing this I've been running an All-around Any% for the past 2 weeks with a PB of 20:19. Here's what I advise you do:

DISCLAIMER: I'm playing on the PAL version of Cool boarders 2 so timings may vary. I don't know if they do but it's something to keep in mind.

First off, pick Yaggi as your boarder and choose the 3rd AA board.

When you begin you'll do your first Big Air jump on Stadium Kicker. The combo I always do is Tail Grab to Melancholy while spinning in either direction. I do the same combo on Ice Fang too but I Fakie first.

When you are told to GO at the start of Stadium Kicker, you want to immediately Jump (I'll explain why in a moment) and the moment you land you want to prepare your spin by holding X. Just before you go down the slope, hold down left or right to charge your Spin and jump at the very end of the ramp for the most airtime. You'll then do Tail Grab (Down, Down, R2) and Melancholy (Down, R1, L2). If you land this you'll get between 780-982 points depending on how well you land. This normally shoots you up to first place.

Later on when you're on Ice Fang, instead of jumping you want to Fakie first, then hold down X to prepare jump. You want to start preparing your spin just under 1 second after you end your Fakie. Get to the of the Ramp, jump and do the same combo from earlier and you should get over 900 points.

Then you'll go on to the race. Since we're allowed to Skip Races here you want to skip the ones you take the longest time to complete. Pipeline Canyon and Freezing Point I think are the 2 longest tracks in the game so you can skip those. I usually also skip Snow Ruins since it's the hardest track for me to complete in the Championship. It is shorter than Bear in the Forest but it's such a tight circuit for me. Bear is also fairly tough but I can usually get through it without crashing and as a result I get through it quicker.
It's up to you what 3rd track you skip.

Starting from White Resort, once you begin the race, immediately Jump forwards. I said to do this on Stadium Kicker too but the reason for doing this is that it gets you immediately up to top speed compared to not jumping. You can't pull this off on all Tracks however, here are all of the ones that don't work:

Bear in the Forest
Freezing Point
Winding River
Snow Ruins

This is because you start the race on a downhill slope so you're already going quite fast, jumping here would just slow you down.

Finally, in order for this route to work you need to accumulate at least 48 points. Basically meaning you need to come first in all races except for one, that one race you can beat coming in 4th or higher.

Can this route be faster? Possibly, but it's a starting point at least. If I get the opportunity to complete a run I will show it in action.

Good luck!

Alpine Any% Guide/Starting Point

Here's a quick guide on how to run the Alpine Any% Category, My current (unrecorded) PB using this exact route is 19:45. It's very possible to beat this time by a considerable amount if you follow these steps and make less mistakes.

As a heads up, I'm using the PAL version so timing might be slightly different, I don't know for certain though.

First of all, pick Yaggi as your boarder and choose a Type 3 Alpine Board.

When you begin the competition, you will start off on Stadium Kicker. Here's what you need to do

Jump Forwards the moment you're told to go so that you get to top speed.
The moment you land your jump, hold down X and start turning in either direction
Jump just before the arrows on the end of the ramp
Perform a Tail Grab (Down, Down R2) to Meloncholy (Down, R1, L2)

If you are able to land this you should rack up a high enough score to shoot yourself into first place

You'll then do a race at White Resort. Jump Forwards to get to top speed.
You'll go back to Stadium Kicker, repeat the same trick.
You'll do a race at Sunset Downhil, Jump Forwards to get to top speed,

Your next Big Air will be at Ice Fang. On the AA Any% Guide I told you to Fakie instead of Jumping, but when you're on an Alpine Board YOU CANNOT FAKIE, IT SLOWS YOU DOWN TREMENDOUSLY.

Instead, right as you're told to go hold down X, then half a second later you need to start Spinning in either direction. At the very tip of the Ramp you then Jump and perform the same Tail Grab to Meloncholy trick.

This should shoot you into first place.

You'll then race at Bear in the Forest. You cannot Jump Forward at the start of the race to get to top speed because you start on a downwards slope.
Your next Big Air will be at Ice Fang, repeat trick.
Your next Race will be at Railroad Trip, jump forwards at the start.
Your next Big Air will be at Stadium Kicker, repeat trick.
Your next Race will be at Take it Easy, jump forwards. When you come to the part with the trees, you can go through them and off a cliff to avoid doing a rather sharp turn. It's hard to perform at first so I recommend practising it beforehand. It saves around 2-3 seconds. Also once again you can jump forwards at the start.

You then will have to do a Big Air at Titan's Toe. Jump forwards at the start but don't do any tricks, just get to the finish line.
You will then come onto Pipeline Canyon, skip this level.
Your next Big Air will be Stadium Kicker. Jump forwards and just get to the end of the ramp without performing any tricks.
Your next race will then be Freezing Point, skip this level.
Your next Big Air will then be Icy Fang, repeat the trick from earlier.
Your next Race will be Winding River, you start off on a downwards slope so you cannot jump forwards.

The final Big Air will be Titan's Toe, don't perform any tricks.
The final Race will be Snow Ruins, skip this level and stop your timer.

You've done it! That's how you beat the game with an Alpine Board.

Apline Boards are very fast but are quite hard to control and sometimes unresponsive, so I recommend pracitsing with then first.
