Shaun Palmer's Pro Snowboarder

'Shaun Palmer's Pro Snowboarder' is a Game Boy Advance video game released in early 2002 by publishing giant Activision. It was a scrolling snowboarding game that, as its name implies, stars snowboarding star Shaun Palmer. Unlike other extreme sports video games released on the console, you'll only have one chance to execute your move, whereas in Tony Hawk titles you're allowed to retrace your steps (or wheels) and perform it once more.

Gameplay
Before taking on the main mode, you'll be given the chance to try out the tutorial mode which can be accessed via the main menu so that you can learn all the basics of the title. Throughout the main mode you'll jump off slopes and grind on rails. To grind on a rail, the player will need to jump towards one then press B. However, doing this alone will not keep you on the rail, as you'll also need to use the d-pad to keep the skater's balance. After you're done grinding, then you can either slide off back onto the mountain or perform an arial and execute a maneuver that will gain the player even more points, though at the risk of failing altogether, thus giving you absolutely no points at all.

In each stage are the letters S, H, R, E, and D that spell out the letters "shred". As in Donkey Kong Country, the player isn't required to obtain each character, though it's a goal that will reap the player rewards if accomplished successfully (the reward being more sponsors). The more sponsors one has, the better the stats of your character will be.
