SSX Tricky was PS2 era, but that one's actually the PS3 remake lol.

Hell yeah, that one works. I picked up the same trick from an old hand in the Gulf back in the day, and it still gets me out of jams. Last fall I was hauling a line through a corroded chock on a buddy's boat, and that wet rope just slid right through, no cussing or prying needed. Dry rope would've locked up halfway and we'd have been there for an hour. I also add a little dish soap to the water if it's real stubborn, makes a huge difference on the really tight turns. Your mileage may vary, but I swear by it.

Used to swear by expensive jackets, but now I'm a poncho believer too.

Funny how people throw around legal terms they heard somewhere once. I had a guy tell me I couldn't trim his tree branches hanging over my roof because it was "trespassing against nature" or something like that. The arborist just laughed and cut them anyway.

Nope, cleaned it right up, throttle actually felt smoother after the adjustment.
