THPS 1 + 2: How To Manual
The manual is essentially the skateboarding equivalent of a wheelie.
If you want to get your front or rear wheels off the ground, it's simple.
On your controller, quickly press up and then down on the left stick, or down and then up to go onto your front wheels.
This doesn't require you to jump, making it ideal for keeping combos going, but you can input the command in the air to land into a manual.
It'll also add an extra multiplier to your score, and you can chain it with smaller flip tricks.
For example, you could kickflip, land in a manual, and then ollie up into another trick, back into a manual, and so on and so forth.
While you're in a manual, use the balance bar to ensure you don't bail or put all of your wheels back on the floor.
This is done using the left stick.
Bailing will cost you your entire combo, while returning to a normal skate position will end the combo but still award the points.
