How to unlock the Aerials Ace achievement in Vancouver 2010 - Definitive Guide
The finished this in first place with 258 points, about 12 points above of the second place finisher. I used the 2nd and 3rd most difficult jumps (Back Full-Double Full-Full 4.425 and the Back Double Full-Full-Full 4.525).
Get as many points as possible on the easy portions; Push off, ramp launch and landing. The most difficult part is the style section, which can be disorienting if you're not ready for it.
The easiest way for me to approach this was to separate the sticks. The right stick will be for the outside green bar, while the left stick will be for the inside blue bar. Both jumps listed below will have the respective R and L icons on opposite sides of each other the entire time. The only thing you need to watch is the speed in which they move, which can go from slow to fast and back.
After a run or two you should have a handle on this and grab the 15g.

In order to finish first, you pretty much need to do the two hardest jumps (4.525 and 4.650). You will need about 250 points in order to win.
The hardest part in Aerials is the style section. Forget about the moving circles and bar and focus on the athlete. Move the left stick in the direction her head is pointing and the right stick in the direction her feet are pointing. I find this way much easier.

Choose the event Ladies' Aerials. This event requires you perform 2 jump tricks which are graded on trick difficulty and execution. Always choose the hardest and 2nd hardest tricks (Highest DD) if you want the gold. You must quickly hit as close to the middle as possible for your aim, and hold once again at the bottom of the ramp, and release at 100 on your side meter. Then, you will be prompted to hold the and in position with the trick. Watch the colors carefully and keep both sticks rotating with the appropriate marker until it disappears. This is tricky at first, but you'll get the hang of it after several attempts. Then, just stick the landing. Nailing both tricks gets you gold.
