→‎Tricks: Looks like none of these are supposed to be capitalized and "Running Start" should be "drift-and-dash"; and 360 is apparently supposed to be a midair thing (youtube: CJaLhhNg4kA)

 ===Tricks===
-The player can perform certain tricks while using the Roller Skates. The Parallel Swizzle, Running Start, and 360 can be performed as soon as the player has the Roller Skates. The Backflip and Cosmic Flip, however, must first be learned from an NPC before they can be used. The tricks are aesthetic and have no significant gameplay effect.
