Overview

There are 24 courses in total that you are required to complete. Basically you need to beat the first 8 levels in each of the 3 areas. Courses 9 and onwards in each world are harder versions of other previous levels so you don't need to worry about those.

Tips

- Usually if you fail a level, you have to restart from level 1 but I recommend you save after completing a level or at the beginning of a new one. This just gives you the opportunity to retry/practice a level if you fail. To save/load the game, pause the game, then hold down

to bring up the menu and you can save/load there.

- Use

to rewind if you crash.

- This may not help but I found it really weird using the left thumbstick to turn. The key thing is speed so I ended up using my left thumb to push the left thumbstick forwards to keep my speed up and then I used my right thumb on the D-Pad to turn. It made it much easier to fine tune the turning by just tapping left/right on the D-Pad.

- There isn't much else to it really other than practice.

- Once you have done the first 8 levels of a mountain, intentionally fail so that you quit out. Then just move on to the next mountain. After the first 8 levels of any mountain, it will loop through and give you levels you have likely completed already. (Thanks to ChArG1nMaLAZ0R & HawkeyeBarry20 for suggesting this clarification).

Heres some tips if anyones struggling with this i just got this yesterday with ease i used sniffles trick but changed them around

I used my left thumb on the stick to steer and my right thumb on the up on the d-pad for speed worked a treat i finshed most courses with 5-10 seconds to spare even the hard ones

Small movements on the stick for turns avoid everything if you hit anything rewind and dodge and keep away from the side try to get between the flags as much as you can by reminding and dodging look ahead of your guy dont look at him and line up your next movement

Once your done the eighth course it will start going Backwards counting down becoming harder pause quit game / start new game pick a different mountain

Just to note your right thumb will probably end up with cramp hope this helps someones as this was driving me mad cheers.

I'm having trouble on a couple courses and I thought about one hand on the stick and the other on the D-pad but it felt too weird so I never tried it. I'll give it a shot reading your tip

By HawkeyeBarry20 on 07 Aug 2015 15:53

works fine, the big thing here is abuse the rewind button,

By GWebb77 on 08 Aug 2015 04:14

The stick/d-pad thing comes in handy for certain areas where you don't need to move much from one flag checkpoint to the next, but overall I don't really recommend it as sharper turns never work out for me... and it does feel super-awkward.

By ClaytThaGreat on 11 Aug 2015 12:48

Thanks.

By mommy fan on 13 Aug 2015 01:15

No problem!

By sniffles x on 13 Aug 2015 07:44

Anyone else have this achievement glitch on them? I am 100% in the game, but 91% in the achievement tracker.

By CloudCircus on 13 Aug 2015 14:01

There's no actual impact on the achievement for this, but I think you might have the difficulties of Mt. Nasty and Steep peak mixed around.

The achievement name "no so nasty" suggests Mt. Nasty is the hardest route. Ontop of that it's the tallest of the three peaks (suggesting harder), and you have to cycle through Steep Peak first on the level select screen to get to it.

By Sakori on 13 Aug 2015 15:52

I have done all 24 courses, a couple times now and the milestone won't go above 75%. Happen to anyone else?

By IOnEI Falcon on 17 Aug 2015 07:27

Have you done ALL 24 courses? Or did you do the first 8, and then the 8 repeats of those 8, and then the second set of eight? Because if that is what you did, then that would put you right at 75%

By Smiththedude on 18 Aug 2015 05:57

Cloud Circus I have the milestone but my achievement is stuck at 83%

By Firstmate Fizz on 18 Aug 2015 21:28

Any tips for monster run I seem to be 10 seconds short. Is it worth jumping the short characters. Or do you try to move as little as possible?

By Spaceman1809 on 24 Aug 2015 16:17

thumbs up for the two hand method

By ZiMba 4 LiFE II on 21 Sep 2015 12:47

I was stuck at 70 %. But doing a third playtrough on Mt. Nasty did the trick for me.

By Valdimier on 20 Oct 2015 11:38

I can't get monster run completed, even with abusing the replay. any tips to go faster??

By IamMeLoDy on 31 Oct 2015 09:39

Using one hand to go fast and the other to veer left and right is sooooo much easier.

By o Blaze UK o on 14 Jan 2016 15:51

Glad it works for you!

By sniffles x on 14 Jan 2016 16:26

I just came here to say that I hate this achievement. Solid advice with the two handed approach though

By Anxsighety on 30 Apr 2016 01:29

Can't believe this has a ratio of 6++. The races are really easy with all this solution's tips. Thanks sniffles.

This game is delicious for anyone with a bit of dedication heh.

By MajimaActual on 12 May 2016 01:46

No problem :)

By sniffles x on 12 May 2016 08:06

Thanks a lot for the tip on using two thumbs, made a huge difference. Well, that and the fact I somehow forgot about the rewind feature (which I abuse regularly) the second I started on this achievement

By Ahayzo on 28 May 2016 15:36

It would have helped if you made it clear to intentially get a game over after getting past level 8 and that at the menu you can choose a course. Its very vague that you can actually change the course and you gave no clue on how to skip the loop of levels

By ChArG1nMaLAZ0R on 22 Jun 2016 15:02

Great guide, glided into the finish with the clock at 0:00:00 on the last level on 2nd attempt.

Good tip using two thumbs to steer using the d-pad. What i also did was use the Xbox Accessoires app to remap the d-pad up button to the RB button. That way i could keep my hands on the controller normal while keeping the speed up button pressed pretty much all the time. You don't need an elite controller for that.

By OverIoad on 25 Jan 2017 11:22

I thought you picked one course and eventually the game would take you everywhere. I got to a point I was hitting every gate, not hitting any jumps which lowers speed and not wrecking once and could not beat a course. Then I read here someone didn't know not hitting the gates lowers your speed and I knew I was doing something wrong. @ChArG is right, it should be put in the description to do the 8 courses go back to the main menu and do 8 courses of one of the other starting options and then do the last one. Would of saved me so much time and frustration.

By HawkeyeBarry20 on 27 Apr 2017 02:08

Edit made, thanks for the suggested clarification.

By sniffles x on 27 Apr 2017 08:30

Fantastic guide. Great job.

By EmpHelm on 28 Aug 2017 20:44

I was stuck on level 5 until I did the two-thumb method and realized I needed to hit all the gates for speed (the snapshots tipped me off on this). Two thumbs up for this solution

By Killipo on 06 Apr 2018 14:23

Got all the milestones in the game but not this achievement :/ Stuck at 95%

By TheBoxyBear on 27 Sep 2022 04:37

Same ^

By Antny Xx on 04 Oct 2022 15:34

I have beaten all 8 levels on all 3 mountains and then let the time run out but the 'Not So Nasty' achievement has yet to complete for me. I've done all the other achievements in this game. Is there something I'm missing?

(edit : it has unlocked on the milestones in the game)

By Darsh Mcradden on 21 Apr 2023 19:52

Not sure if it’s 100% the reason I finally got my achievement to pop - for the people out there that are stuck on 95% on the achievement but the milestone is complete, I went back through the levels and made sure I crossed the line with time to spare rather than having hit 0 and slid across the line, if that makes sense? Hope this helps! Pretty frustrating achievement.

By x Kinsey v on 07 May 2023 12:55

They Key is to remap up on the dpad. Got this in about an hour or so. I saved after ever level but never had to use it.

By ryan lees on 16 May 2023 20:14

Same as some others on here, I’m stuck at 95% for achievement progress, but I have all milestones. Annoying. I’m surprised this one doesn’t have the buggy tag with how many seem to have experienced this issue.

Edit - I finally got this to unlock on my third run through of Mt. Nasty.

This guide was translated automatically.

In total, the game has three mountains with 8 races each. Each mountain has a different level of difficulty.
After completing 8 races in order, a random mode for selecting racing tracks is activated.
The catch is that the routes can be repeated. Therefore, when earning this achievement, I recommend that you cross out the tracks that you have driven (their names are displayed before the start of the race and during the race itself). After completing 8 races, go to the initial menu and start the game, choosing the mountain you haven’t ridden. Achievement progress is not reset when selecting different game saves. You just need to drive along all the tracks

During the race, you need to hold the skier's acceleration button constantly (so that he is as bent as possible to the ground). This way you gain speed faster. use time rewind in case of a collision, exit from the highway, or passing flags on the wrong side (you need to drive through the one from which the flags themselves stick out). By default, acceleration is on the top cross, which is not convenient because It is better to control the skier right or left there. Reassign the "dad up" key to the place of the RB button and this will make driving much more convenient
