Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX is a landmark extreme sports game released for the PlayStation in 2000. Developed by Z-Axis and published by Acclaim Max Sports, it brought the popular trick-combo formula into the world of BMX riding. Players take control of the legendary Dave Mirra, Ryan Nyquist, and other pro riders to explore open-ended levels, chaining together complex ground and air tricks to complete objectives, unlock new bikes, and set high scores.
How to Play
In the main Proquest mode, you must complete specific challenges within the time limitโsuch as grinding particular objects or achieving score thresholdsโto advance to new parks. The controls use standard PlayStation mappings in the browser:
- Steer / Lean: D-Pad (Arrow Keys)
- Bunny Hop: Cross (Z key)
- Tricks: Square, Triangle, Circle (A, S, X keys)
- Spin: L1 / R1 (Q / E keys)
- Start / Pause: Start (Enter key)
Tips
- Master the Modifiers: The game relies on a modifier system. Pressing and holding the modifier button alters standard tricks into more advanced (and higher-scoring) maneuvers.
- Link with Manuals: Landing in a manual (Up, then Down on the D-Pad) allows you to string together separate jumps and grinds into massive combos.
