🔥 Multipliers
Tricks of the Challenge
Earn double points whenever you perform the featured tricks for this challenge. The tricks for this challenge are:
KWAD
Keep Whooping All Day by completing objectives to collect letters. Each letter adds a bonus, and finishing the full set gives a major boost.
- Each letter = +250 points
- All 4 letters bonus = +2000 points
- Completing KWAD = +3000 total bonus points
The KWAD objectives for this challenge are:
- K – Half Matty
- W – Wall Tap
- A – Trippy Switch
- D – Barani
Streak Bonus
Each successful trick adds +1% of its base value to your streak multiplier. The bonus compounds as you continue landing tricks, up to a maximum of 200%.
- Example: A 500-point trick adds a +5% bonus to your streak multiplier.
- Crash = streak fully reset to 0%.
- Bump or Ground Tap = streak reduced by 50%.
Obstacle Switching
Changing obstacles adds variety to your freestyle and rewards you with multipliers. Every 3 switches gives a growing bonus that applies only to total trick score:
- 3 switches = +5% bonus
- 6 = +10%
- 9 = +20%
- 12 = +35%
- 15 = +50%
- 18 = +70%
- 21 = +100%
⚠️ Penalties
Trick Repeat Reduction
Repeating the same trick lowers its value each time:
- 1st = 100% (full value)
- 2nd = 75%
- 3rd = 50%
- 4th or more = 0%
Back-to-Back
Performing the same trick consecutively creates a compounding penalty:
- 1st = full value
- 2nd in a row = -50%
- 3rd in a row = -75%
- 4th in a row = -87.5% (and so on)
This penalty stacks with the Trick Repeat Reduction.
Obstacle Repeat
You can use the same obstacle for up to 3 tricks in a row at full value. After that, penalties apply:
- 4th = -33%
- 5th = -66%
- 6th or more = -100%
Switching to a new obstacle resets this count.
Open-air tricks will stall the repeat count without resetting or adding to it.
Sloppy Trick
If a trick is poorly executed, such as over/under rotating, breaking loop flow, or flying awkwardly, it loses 35% of its value.
Missing
If you miss your target without bumping into anything, the trick earns 0 points and your streak multiplier stalls.
Bump/Ground Tap
If you bump into an object or tap the ground during a trick:
- That trick’s score is reduced by 50%
- Your streak multiplier is reduced by 50%
Crash
Crashing breaks your flow entirely. Your streak multiplier is reset to 0%.
