Picture yourself returning to the world of SSX, one year later. Things on the SSX World Circuit have changed a lot in one year. Many of the locales look familiar, but the course designers have been burning the midnight oil during the off season creating all new and insane trick versions of the courses that will allow the riders venues to let loose and "Showoff"(trick). In addition, track gurus have put in a multitude of new paths and shortcuts, as well as two completely new stops on the SSX World Circuit. New tracks, environments and configurations allow riders to pump up their trick repertoire and introduce an assortment of new "Uber" tricks to be displayed on the unique Showoff (trick) courses and on the Circuit.

Garibaldi, located in British Colombia, Canada, is a fun "big air" first course with a slew of different routes, providing a number of different experiences.
