    Each skater has three different specials by default. Typically there's one grind, one flip, one grab. The button combinations are different for each skater. You'll find them listed in one of the menus, maybe customization - tricks, or they're all in that guide that got linked.

    I can't remember whether THPS2 let you change the specials and button combos or not. I think that started in 3.

    There are also a few unique specials, like Rodney Mullen's Casper special is a special manual. Tap out the combination in air, let go and you'll land in a special manual.

    Based on that guide, it's down, left, whatever your grind button is. You ollie near a rail, tap down then left, then hold grind as you land on a rail. It's almost like doing a move in a fighting game.

    I can't perform it, Shaunage. When I press the buttons, I do a simple move instead of special
