How to unlock the Totally Radical achievement in OlliOlli - Definitive Guide
In Rad Mode, you do not need to worry about completing any of the goals that appear at the beginning of the level - these are already completed by now. You simply need to complete the level, but only Perfect Landings and Perfect Grinds are allowed. Anything other than this will cause you to faceplant and fail the level.
You also need to complete all Amatuer and Pro levels on Rad Mode for this achievement - so all 50 levels in total
Hope this helps. If anyone needs to me to clarify anything, please let me know in the comments below. Good luck, you may need it!
Rad Mode is basically a perfect-only mode. Only perfect grinds and landings are permitted; sick, ok, and sloppy ones will cause you to automatically bail.
It does seem tricky at first, but once you get moving on the levels, they tend to get easier since a lot of the later levels can be done in fewer combos. Perfect grinds are easier to hit than the perfect landings present a lot more in earlier levels (besides base).
I have put together a video containing completion of every level in Rad Mode. Notably tricky ones are Junkyard 3 and 5 Pro, as they require very precise slowdown techniques in order to pass in this mode.
Rad Mode unlocks once you have completed all five challenges in every level in both Amateur and Pro modes. Unlike the other difficulties, this mode doesn't have any challenges. Instead, you will need to revisit all fifty levels that you have already completed and go through them again while landing only perfect combos and grinds. This means that if you ever hit a trick or grind that is below perfect execution, you will automatically face plant and have to start over. While this is no easy feat, you will have gotten into a good rhythm from playing through the previous modes where getting perfect grinds and tricks should not be too bad.
Luckily, there are no score or challenge requirements in Rad Mode. For the most part, it is recommended that you just go through the whole stage using ollies and any basic grind through. This will make it easier to focus on landing the tricks instead of doing anything fancy. It can also be easier at times to just ignore hopping on certain rails all together in the terrain is flat.
You will learn that some levels are tougher than others due to specific jumps. There are a few levels in the junkyard and the port that can seem a lot harder than the rest. It is important to take it slow and figure out a pattern that works for you to hit specific jumps. It is always better to take it slow and look at a specific jump that you might be overshooting and determine what is the best way for your play style to land that jump next time around.
Rad Mode unlocks once you have completed all challenges in both amateur and pro modes on each level. Rad mode does not have any challenges, but instead you must land perfectly and land perfect combos and grinds. If you land a trick or grind with anything less than a perfect landing, you will face plant and must start the stage over.
