To recap and give you a more in-depth look, here’s a step-by-step overview of how to perform a lip trick near the pirate in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 and 4 Remake. As well as how to perform the easiest Lip Trick in the game.

  • Head to the Pirate Ship right of the stage’s starting ramps
  • Head straight to the ramp located directly below the skeleton
  • Hold the crouch input (X on PlayStation 5, A on Xbox, or Spacebar when using keyboard) to prepare for the jump
  • Let go of the crutching input as you are about to take off to gain altitude and reach the mast
  • Perform any lip trick after reaching the right altitude. The easiest trick, aka the FS Noseblunt, can be performed by holding Triangle/Y (If using keyboard, you can perform the trick by holding ↑). Tapping the input while performing a Nose Stall also allows you to transition from it for a quick combo.
