How to unlock the The Floor is Lava achievement in Sunset Overdrive - Definitive Guide
This requires you to get a "x100"-Combo while only jumping on obstacles without touching the ground.
Look for some relatively quit place - or just clean out the area - with two cars close to each other. Best would be a parking lot or something like that.
Start your combo with jumping on one car. Then just jump between the cars getting +1 on your combo for each time you hit a car.
Do not use any other moves like grinding - it just increases the risk of losing the chain.
Important: Even if your combo doesn't increase, you are allowed to jump on the same car twice.
Note from Mr Twich: The Achievement will unlock when you hit the ground and completing the combo.

Note: the achievement will not unlock until you hit the ground, after completing the "x100" combo.

I found a boat out in the water with a 2x2 set of boxes.
No enemies around so you are free to just bounce back and forth until you get the achievement.
I attached a video showing the map location and the boats I'm jumping on to get the combo.

I got the achievement using your method, thanks!

The most foolproof way I've found to do this is to go to the top of a building and find a 2 x 2 grid of air conditioning fans. Then start bouncing on top of them, move the right stick so that you're looking straight down, and just move the circle between the squares on the grid. Every time the center of the circle crosses a line between bounces you will add to your combo counter.
Unlike jumping between two cars there is almost no chance that you will miss and hit the ground between items.
The achievement will not actually unlock until you hit the ground and break the combo. Just make sure the counter on the right side of the screen is > 100 and then touch the ground. Pop!

This is a pretty straight forward achievement. You can do this extremely early on in the game by finding two "bounce" objects next to each other in the open world. In my case, I found two cars parked next to each other. You can just bounce BACK and FORTH between these two objects to unlock this achievement.
Note: There is a combo counter in the top right corner, which must be 100 or more. The achievement is unlocked once you land the combo.

VIDEO GUIDE INCLUDED
"Sasquatch and Friends" fun center, aka. Oxfords Base
Is the best place I have found to do this stress free without any OD or even a back and fourth balancing act between two objects...
"Sasquatch and Friends" is located south east of The Brewery; found in The Old Factory District, on the very first island. (This fort is where you get your amps and do the nightfall holdout in the beginning.) Eventually as the story progresses you will meet up with a group of preppy snob kids (The Oxfords) whom hang out at the place we are going!
You can't miss it there is a GIANT PURPLE GORILLAish Creature on top of the building, with fake plastic trees and mushrooms aplenty surrounding the parkinglot.
Step One. Locate the "Sasquatch and Friends."
Step Two. Make your way to the rooftop of the building where Sasquatch is.
Step Three. Get a good bounce started on the fake green trees surrounding the Sasquatch; move from one tree top to the next until the combo counter in the upper right of the screen reaches a minimum of 100x.
Step Four. With the combo counter at 100x or more; dismount from said trees and land on a non bounce able surface to end combo and pop the achievement.
TIPS:
-You literally only need to hit the jump button once with this solution! just jump ONTO the treetops and your good to go.
-Watch the Camera angle and maintain in a comfortable position for accurate bouncing between treetops.
-Avoid bumping into Sasquatches feet for best bouncing combo results.

The train tracks that run throughout the city provide a perfect opportunity to accomplish this. Just bounce back and forth between them whilst traveling throughout the city. It is a little less boring than bouncing between two air conditioning vents or cars. Not necessarily better but a little more of the scenic route.
Note: The achievement won't pop until you actually hit the ground.

FOR EVERYONE HAVING TROUBLE, load up the mission " Getting the band back togther and in that mission at one point you need need to jump on barrels and while doing so you can jump on the others and there will be plenty, and for each one counts as about 3 to 4 because the barrels are connected. Good Luck. Message for Help.
Alot of people have reccomended finding objects near each other, but I found a much easier way providing that you have the Mooil Rig DLC. In the DLC you learn a few new moves, all of which involve water traversing.
Head out into the open water and spam . This combo will send your character into a water slide, dive underwater and jump up and then air dash. Spam this combo until your combo hits atleast 100 or so and then just fall into the water or onto a floating crate for the achievement to appear.

You can do this really easily within 30 minutes from the start of the game. Once you meet Watler he will ask you to get five melee kills. After that he wants you to go to a basketball court. In that basketball court there are 2 dumpsters touching each other. Ignore Walter for now and jump back and forth from the two dumpsters. Looking at your indicator below your character makes this easier so you won't miss the dumpsters. I also held the right stick down to get the best angle at the dumpsters. You won't get the achievement until after you fall. You can either count the 100 yourself or, I just did it for a few minutes and when I was sure I was over 100 I jumped off. You won't have to worry about any enimies at this stage of the game.
At the "base" where Floyd is, there is 3 sets of fans on a building roof nearby (with your back to Floyds Amp shop ahead and to the right).
As each set of fans is 4x4 its a big area you have to bounce on so is very forgiving. Just alternate bounces until the combo registers 101, the step off and acheivement will unlock.
Also, as its in the base, no OD will attack you. Good luck!

I found a painless way to do this on accident - in the SW corner of the first island, there are two power plant cooling towers with some rails on the outside leading up to the top. With a little bit of platforming, you find yourself at the top of them. Once you get to the top, you can drop down inside and wall run around the tower interior. I noticed when I reached the top I was already around a X40 combo, and there were no enemies around. The shape of the tower makes it very easy to jump and then chain into a wall run continuously. If you reach the top of the tower, grind the rail for a second, then jump back in and continue to wall run and jump chain until you pass X100. It took about 2 minutes, and popped once I ended the combo.
Feel free to ask for clarifications and happy hunting!

I know there all ready many solution for this achievement but here is a location I found that you can get it without any chance of falling.
Here's my location on the first island for getting this really easy:
I've found a really easy way of doing this achievement.
On the mission 'Hot Dog' you are looking for clues of the whereabouts of a guy called Brill Cream. The setting is a factory.
You will see a crane with a smiley face on the breaking ball in the yard. In front of that is a tallish building with a colourful water tower on the first floor. The building goes up higher, supported by circular orange bricks, a bit like chimneys at the base of the next floor.
Jump up to these orange bricks and the water tower.
Here you will find 6 solar panels that you can bounce on. It is much easier than only having two boats or two cars or tracks like in other solutions. They are really close together too, which makes them even more convenient.
I just used the set of 3 on one side and went from left to right and back again over and over. It takes a couple of minutes but it is easy to do and the achievement popped for me first time.
Hope this helps :o)

Hey guys!
I have found another way to get this achievement. You can use the blue rail to grind your way to this achievement. Just jump from one rail to another to get the achievement. I have a made a video with a more detailed explanation.
Happy Hunting!

I just found a really sweet spot for this achiecement.
Impossible to miss there.
A while throught the story, you meet a gang of dungeons and dragons nerds which talk to you about their sick king.
You then go to a park with them to defend base or whatever.
In that park, there's a group of tree which look like just one big tree. This is really big and you can just jump on top of each "tree" but staying on that trees group in a way that you won't failed your combo.
Remember that spot and go there just after that mission. I tried during the mission and one of the group member lost all her hp and this make me failed the mission after I was around 70 combo hits.
Edit: For those who like to know before that mission; if you look at your map, at the far down-right (not the island dlc) you see a weapon store. Well, the park is just at the left of it.

I used the two pink fans on the side of the building in the starting area in front of the fizzco brewer thing. I just bounced back and forth on them until I had a 102 combo and dropped to the ground.
Achievement unlocked!

You can easily do this on the boss fight with the Fizzie Balloon. I did it in about 4 minutes or so, since there is a lot to work with it is easy to chain the moves together. they're short distances from each other too, making it nearly impossible to overshoot or fall short of grindable/bounce able surfaces.
To unlock this achievement you will need chain 100 traversal moves together without falling to the ground or stopping for too long.
This can be easily done if you find two cars next to each other or two air vents on a rooftop. Just jump from one to the other until your Combo chain is at 100 or above. You will need to stop after getting 100 to unlock the achievement, so after hitting 100, just drop to the floor and stand still for a couple of seconds for it to register.
