TheGuitar Herocopy was found in the trash can at Waterpark, thefifthTony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4levelthat players unlock by completing all objectives in the previousTHPS 4Skate Tour levels. Interestingly, although the game is a remake, Waterpark is one of three completely new levels, along with Movie Studio and Pinball. This level has a mix of ramps that are good for combos, and six rides scattered around the perimeter of the park that are a good choice for players aiming to land incredible tricks.
