* Note: You can only start an aerial trick if your truck’s wheels are OFF the ground. Try combinations of

***** To perform a trick using a mouse, wait until your truck’s wheels are OFF the ground. Release BOTH
mouse buttons and then press BOTH mouse buttons while moving your mouse in the direction you want your
truck to spin. Give it a try! It’s easier than it sounds!
THE DIFFERENT TRICKS
In the TONKA Monster Trucks CD-ROM game, performing tricks will earn you extra points. Here are some of
the tricks you can do:
180 (“One-Eighty”) – This is when you make your truck do a half spin.
Air – This is when you make your truck do a small jump.
Mega Air – This is when you make your truck do a medium jump.
Super Air – This is when you make your truck do a huge jump.
Donut – Go fast and then turn hard to make your truck skid around. The more times you go around, the
more the crowd will love it!
Wheelie – Find a surface with a good grip and then accelerate hard so that your front wheels rise up into
the air.
Rear Wheelie – Find a surface with a good grip and then get up to a fast speed and break hard so that
your back wheels lift off the ground.
Side Wheelie – This is when you drive on two side wheels.
There are also combination moves, two-wheeled driving and other cool tricks to find. Try to pull as many
tricks as you can before landing back on the ground.
