How to unlock the Raise the roof achievement in Shaun White Skateboarding - Definitive Guide
Turn around and grind the next shaping rail to the cinema roof.
From the glass roof part, perform a simple trick with the right stick + RT and land it on the ground below to unlock the achievement.
Basically it's really an unmissable achievement.
Very easy to do, it's just a matter of getting in a vert ramp or bowl and pumping back and forth with the left stick (hold Left stick up while going up the ramp). To get extra air you can press right as you are about to take off. It will do a trick but it will also launch a bit higher than otherwise.
This can be done in several different half pipes. Make sure to pump back and forth when you are just about to leave the ramp, and do it again when you are landing. You will know the speed boost was done properly when you jump/land, and get the white wind graphic on the back of your character. This technique must be learned in order to make this game much easier. Also make sure to do a grab in the air, so it counts as a trick. If you only jump in the air 9 meters without doing a trick, it will not count.
