How to unlock the Combo King achievement in Motocross Madness - Definitive Guide

Even though this is a DLC achievement, you can do this in any event (including the base game) so choose Exploration > The Ruins. This makes it easier since there is a huge jump you can utilize and you get unlimited time in this event. Make your way to the big white building that is in the middle of the mini-map. You will want your map cursor to be aiming down and you will want to be in the bottom right corner of that white building on the map. In the game view, you will be facing a darkened ridge/ramp on the edge of the mountain (this is where you will want to jump off later). Here are pictures to clarify if you can't find the designated spot.

Once you are at this spot, you will want to boost (hold A) and accelerate (hold RT) and jump off the darkened ridge ramp ahead of you. Once in the air, you will want to hold the X button and while doing so press UP, DOWN, UP. Alternatively you could also press UP X, DOWN X, UP X. The timing is important - don't do it too quick but also not too slow - basically wait until you see your rider start the trick and then switch to the next button input. I found it easier to just hold X and press UP, DOWN, UP though (all the while holding X). Be sure to let go of X before you land though otherwise you will crash. If you do the previous button inputs correctly, you will see a green COMBO word pop up at the top of your screen and your bike will have a bluish electrified effect on it. However, you NEED to land it for it to count towards the achievement. As you land, hold up on the left stick as you have a better chance of landing it smoothly. If you do crash, simply press the BACK button and it should respawn you on the mountain. If it doesn't for some reason, drive back the spot manually. Anyway, that is the "X" combo but there are still two more to cover before you unlock the achievement...

Once you landed the "X" combo, press BACK to respawn on the mountain. Now you will want to drive off that same ramp but this time, hold X and press UP, DOWN, and then let go of X and press UP + Y simultaneously. If done correctly, you will again see the word COMBO on top and this time your rider will have a yellow electrified effect. Land it as well to register the "Y" combo.

Finally, by now you should have a burning orange bar of boost. This is required for the "B" combo. If you don't, simply do some tricks on or off the mountain to build it up. Once it's orange, head off the ramp once more, hold X and press UP, DOWN, and then let go of X and press UP + B simultaneously. When you land it, you should see the word COMBO again, your rider with a red electrified effect, and the achievement will pop instantly!

By the way, it is also possible to do different combos if you replace the UP, DOWN, UP and instead use the following inputs for each of the three button types but this is not necessary for the achievement. Here they are anyway for those who are interested:

LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT
RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT
DOWN, UP, DOWN

Well done, my friend! Thanks! By the way, there should be a colored 'explosion', when landing, that shows you've done it right, if that helps anybody...

Tiger that's for when you're a higher level :) also great guide! I found that I believe the spawn point "dig site" was the fastest way to get these since there is a big jump straight and to the right! :) great guide!!

@Radiant Sword X, stop trolling. We all know that -1 vote is yours and yours alone. Everyone else except you had no problem following my solution so the problem must be somewhere on your end.

Solid guide, but there's no need to go all the way to the middle of the map, you can pull this off from the jump directly inbetween the 2 pyramids that leads over the river to the other side.

The B trick I did was X + LEFT + RIGHT then let go of X and press B + LEFT and achievement popped.

Thumbs up.

Worked like a charm. If you boost off the high mountain and aim for the sandy landing area with the KTM you land right every time with plenty if time to pull off the combos.

Ok I don't get what I'm doin wrong. I'm doin exactly like you said and I land every one of them but the word "combo" never appears even tho I do get the blue glowy bar, then the red one as well but I haven't gotten the achievement. I don't get what I'm not doing right..

Good guide, bitch to land but works great

I will say if you fail and have to do tricks to get the orange boost bar back do them on the left side of the ramp (as you face it) in The Ruins, I found if you go to Dig Site, get the boost up and go back to The Ruins the bar goes blue and doesn't do the combo correctly

Thanks for the guide...in my mind this would have been done totally differently so I'm glad you had the solution. I would have wasted my time. +1

Awesome, worked like a charm. However, I used the ramp that seperates The Dunefield and The Dig Site. +1

I was using the tallest bump in the picture but failing to land the final B combo (got the combo notifier but crashed every time). Failed 8 times. Changed to using the lower ramp on left of picture and landed X, Y and B combo first time. HTH

Firstly, start exploration in "The Dunefield" in the main career, as this counts as an event you will have unlimited time to work on this without any trouble from the AI or time limits. Make sure to choose a bike with a high trick stat such as the KTM Freeride. Now, you must perform an  &  combo trick each, but not in the same jump but individually.

You can perform all 3 tricks on the jump located directly in between the 2 pyramids, the jump leads over the river to the other side, just keep driving forward once you load into the map until you see the large twin pyramids. There are various button combinations that can be used, but not all are known for  & . The 3 basic ones you can use are as follows; 

Note: For the  &  combo trick, you are letting go of  just before pressing the corresponding button to your trick. 

 combo = HOLD  +  LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT (Paparazzi)

 combo = HOLD  +  LEFT, RIGHT,  LEFT (Eagle)

 combo = HOLD  +  LEFT, RIGHT,  LEFT (Lazy Sunday)
