Rep is scored in a few ways:
Air time
Landing tricks (such as backflips and 360s)
Maintaining high speed (of over 45 to 50 kmph)
Sliding your bike (with the right thumbstick)
Nearly missing objects
Completing mini-boss jumps (only found on some tracks with a lot of stunts)
Wheelies
Stoppies
Fakies (riding your bike backwards)
Big Drops (landing a large jump downward in elavation)
Clean Landing (landing on both wheels flat pointed in the direction of momentum)
As you score more points by pulling off tricks and such, you will build up a multiplier that goes from 1x to 3x. Keep an eye on that meter and keep it at 3x by doing small bunny hops in between jumps or other good opportunities to score rep. Spins are the safest tricks in comparison to front or back flips. If you land your bike sideways or backwards, quickly bunny hop again and try to straighten yourself out.
With practice you can easily score 2,000 to 4,000 rep on tracks in the Highlands. Also be on the lookout for the danger zone tracks and helmet cam tracks as they will award more rep for tricks.
If you happen to unlock the Peaks shortcut, it is very easy to score nearly 50k rep on the bonus level the Moon. Low gravity makes jumps higher and longer air time, and hard to wreck even when landing horizontal at times. Be careful though, there are no check points so if you do wreck at any point, the rep score for the level will reset to 0. So earn about 30-40k or whenever you feel the rep earned has drastically been reduced and cross that finish line. Then repeat the process.

Rep, or reputation, is the scoring system in the game that is awarded for pulling of stunts, tricks, and other such various feats in Career or Career+ modes:
- Air Time
- Backflips/Frontflips
- Spins (180, 360, etc.)
- Maintaining High Speed (over 50 kph)
- Sliding (
to the left or right) - Near Misses (passing closely by objects at high speed)
- Mini-boss Jumps (found on tracks with high stunt difficulty)
- Wheelies
- Stoppies
- Fakies (riding your bike backwards)
As you score rep points you will build up a multiplier that goes from 1x to 3x. Keep an eye on that meter and try to keep it at 3x by doing small bunny hops in between jumps or utilizing other good opportunities to score rep. Spins are the safest tricks in comparison to front or back flips. If you land your bike sideways or backwards, quickly bunny hop again and try to straighten yourself out to avoid wrecking.
With practice, it is easy to score 2,000 to 4,000 rep on tracks. The curves on the path often have raised ground, such as bumps and raised shoulders, to bunny hop off of and do simple spins or flips. Keep an eye out for those opportunities on tracks that have very few ramps/jumps to score points on. Also, when choosing your next track on the world map, be on the lookout for the danger zone tracks and helmet cam tracks as they will award more rep for tricks.
Although 250,000 rep may seem like a lot at first, it can be achieved in under two hours if you are skilled enough or experienced with the game.
The quickest way to reach 250,000 is by utilizing the Moon bonus level in the peaks world. About 50,000 rep can be scored in just a few minutes, but after that the scoring slows down exponentially because repeating the same tricks over and over lower the rep score earned. As would be expected, the gravity on the Moon level is much less than any other level in the game. This allows for bigger jumps, longer air time, more tricks, and much easier landing difficulty (even landing sideways usually won't cause you to wreck your bike). However, there is one downside to this method. If you do wreck, all of the points you scored in the level will be lost! Aim for around 50,000 score before crossing the finish line to bank the points, then end the session and repeat.
