Collect C-O-M-B-O
Use the wires to get to the top of the red brick building. Jump down to the balcony and locate the fountain drain. Grind it. When the fountain is drained, it's C-O-M-B-O time! We found it much easier to go backwards here. Climb the pole and grind the wire to the "O" and the "B". Jump to the ledge for the "M". Jump into the pool. If you catch the rails, grind them to the "O", otherwise, Manual to it. With the "O" in your pocket, Caveman (dismount) and run to the "C". Double jump to reach the "C".

Classic Mode - Los Angeles

Note here that you can cause an earthquake in LA which will make the highway overpass accessible, making some goals accessible. To cause the earthquake, you must grind four rails. From your entrance, skate left and move toward the street. There will be two parallel rails in front of you. Grind the left one. Move down the street, then grind the first rail on your right (behind the newspaper boxes). At the end, hang a right, then right again. Grind the rail to your right, up to the greenish building. Enter the greenish building and grind the left rail.

High Score - 325,000, 650,000, and 1,000,000
Do what you do best. Of course, the circular pool is a great place to grind for combo points.
High Combo - 250,000
Do what you do best. Of course, the circular pool is a great place to grind for combo points.
Collect S-K-A-T-E
S - Get some speed and wallride the building directly to your right at the entrance. From the wallride, jump to the S.

Jump over the ladder of the fire engine, and grind the opposite side. Jump at the end, using the "caboose" for a boost. Wallride the wall and jump at the peak of the wallride to get the letter. It will take a few tries.
E - Up the highway overpass pillar, at the end of the yellow and purple plaza. You can actually grind up it. Start from your entrance and take the ramp to the left down. With that speed, jump at the left side of the pillar and grind the pillar up. Again, it will take a few tries.

Collect C-O-M-B-O
Use the half pipe to grab the "C" and land in a grind. Grind the brown building. Jump at the end for the "O" and land in a Manual. Manual over to the concrete QP and grind it left. Jump and grind the next QP, then jump across the fire engine ladder and grind the opposite side, up to the ledge of the next building. Near the end of the ledge, wallride up and jump for the "B", then grind your way around and jump and grind, and repeat until you hit the "O".

1 - On the QP directly behind you at the beginning.
2 - Atop the building to the right of you at your entrance. Climb the trailers and climb up to the roof.

From the start, grind the "C", jump and grind around for the "O", jump and grind the QP, jump and grind the next u-turn stone QP, ride it and it'll pop you out perfectly to grind the "M" on the copter. From the "M", jump and grind the Triangle, then jump and land in a manual on the way to the "B". Use the QP below the "B" to get up to the rail under the "B". Grind the rail to pick up the "B" and continue to grind the rail of the walkway. Go into Focus. At this point, you are grinding the left side of the walkway. Jump off an manual then grind the right side of the walkway preparing you for the final "O". When you near the half pipe where the "O" is located, jump up onto the ledge and jump and manual into the HP, jump up for the "O" and be sure to do a Spine Transfer to get the "O".
