How to view Replays: Once you have downloaded the "replay.rep" put it into "C:\Documents and Settings\...\My Documents\GTA Vice City User Files" and replace the replay.rep that was already there if there was one, then start up GTA Vice City, and while ingame, press F3, then use your mouse for a 3D view of the stunt.
StuntsKrail:The krail is the most popular flip in the stunting world, the krail is basically a backflip 360
How to: find a nice jump, get a good run up, speed toward jump, when impact at the jump, lean back and lean to a side, hold these through out the air, once near end of revolution, lean forward to level yourself out for the landing
Notes:
- If you get enough hang time, you attempt multiple krails
- Krails can go either left or right
Replay:
KrailCorkscrew:The corkscrew is another popular flip, although it is the only other besides krail... the corkscrew is basically a frontflip 360
How to: find a nice jump, get a good run up, speed toward jump, when impact at the jump, lean forward and lean to a side, hold these through out the air, once near end of revolution, lean back to level yourself out for the landing
Notes:
- If you get enough hang time, you attempt multiple corkscrews
- Krails can go either left or right
Replay:
CorkscrewWheelie:The ever so famous wheelie, riding your bike on the back wheel
How to: just get some speed then lean back, don’t lean to much or you will fall, lean forward to land
Notes:
- A variation called a lazy wheelie is when you pull back a lot until you see spark, then keep holding bake but release acceleration
Replay:
WheelieStoppie:The stoppie is like a wheelie, but on the front wheel instead
How to: just get speed, release acceleration, then lean forward and apply BOTH brakes, lean back to land
Notes:
- A type of stoppie called glitch stoppies, are done with Sanchezes, Freeways, and Angel, they are done by land out of air on your front wheel
- you can have an everlasting stoppie with Faggios and Pizza Boys, just release all buttons while at a 45º stoppie and instead, lean forward and accelerate, you can turn left or right to pivot on your nose
- Stoppies are popular for stopping along rooftops
Replay:
StoppieSpin:The spin is probably the most known to new stunters, and of course in a spin, you spin
How to: find a nice jump, get a good run up, speed toward jump, when impact at the jump, lean to a side, hold it through out the air, once near end of revolution, lean to either side to straighten yourself out for the landing
Replay:
SpinMega-Spin:A mega spin is a method of spinning that can get spins into the thousands
How to: find a good ramp with flat ground after it, put a commercial truck (big truck) along the back of the ramp so you get a sketchy half pipe formation, speed towards the truck at a slight angle and pull back right when you're about to hit the truck, when landing, turn in the direction you’re spinning to lessen the chances of bailing
Notes:
- ONLY turn in mid-air right before landing, or else you will loose rotation speed
- The mega-spin is the most commonly breaking world record
Replay:
Mega-spinHitspin:A hitspin is where you hit something with the side of the tail of the bike causing you to start spinning in midair
How to: get air of a ramp and maneuver in mid air to make the side of your bike tail to hit something, once spinning, level yourself out and land
Notes: When you execute it hitting with the head, it is a "Hookspin" as it has a more of a hoofing motion
Replay:
HitspinWall Bumping:The wall bump is riding up a vertical surface to get to higher places
How to: find a nice wall, speed up to it in a wheelie of 45º, once riding wall, pull back to exit wall and straighten yourself out to land
Notes:
- you can wall bump off of many things for variety, like street poles or sides of cars, those two vertical surfaces usually come up with spins
Replay:
Wall BumpLedge Bumping:A ledge bump (or just plain bump) is where you just get air off of small ledges
how to: find a nice, not too big ledge (shorter then your bike), speed up to it, and on impact be in a wheelie so your front wheel taps the top of the ledge, or in most cases, just pull back right before ledge, once in air, do what air stunts you want to then land
Notes:
- You can also bump of car hoods or something
- Neo Anderson has found a way to make your own ledges called BSMs, instructions for these are in set-ups section
- Another method called packerbumping, is where you drive a packer into a wall (on purpose head on collision) of a short building, so that when you ride off the packer with a bike, you will bump off the edge of the roof
Replay:
Ledge BumpBonk:A bonk is when you bounce of something while your in mid-air, so that your 'trail' is in the form of an 'm'
How to: find a ramp that is infront of an object or make your own ramp using a packer, speed of the ramp, then like the ledge bump, to get best results from bonk, make the front wheel tap the top, then land
Replay:
BonkGrind:The famous grind is the favourite of most stunters, the grind, like other extreme sports, is sliding along a surface
How to: find a nice low rail (a bit shorter then bike), line up with your bike along it, get into a wheelie and once front wheel is higher than rail, turn into the rail, once your on the rail, lean forward to get the bike straight on the rail (should be perpendicular to the rail), then lean back and forward to balance, when wanting off, either slide to the end or lean back to exit
Notes:
- for high rails, there is two methods, A.) Packer grind, (instructions in set-up section) , and B.) Air to grind (A2G), where you fly of a ramp from a distance (maybe put an air stunt in) and land on the rail
Replay:
GrindPacker GrindAir to GrindAirgrab:The airgrab, also known as an AG, is wear you get off, then back on the bike in mid air
How to: get air off a ramp and hit a wall using your back wheel or your front wheel, on impact, keeping hitting enter/exit button until AG is executed, ten land
Notes:
- You can use the hitspin method for AGs
- hitting the wall front wheel first causes a backflip
- hitting the wall back wheel first causes a frontflip
Replay:
AirgrabLandgrab:A landgrab is like an AG except is executed on land
How to: ride into a vertical surface with your bike in any position (side ways, wheelie, etc.) on impact with wall, keep hitting enter/exit until executed
Notes:
- A landgrab can sometimes turn into an AG
LandgrabStoppie Airgrab:A stoppie airgrab is used usually with faggios and pizza boys, although can be done using other bikes
How to: find a ledge, get speed towards it and get into a Faggio everlasting stoppie, then pivot either left or right until you’re parallel to the ledge, still speeding towards it, on impact with ledge, keep hitting exit/enter until is executed, this while cause a spinning airgrab
Replay:
Stoppie AirgrabExplosion Flips/Spins:The only way to do a front or back flip on a bike (besides off a wall bump) is using explosions, you can make it easier by using a cheat or doing it cheatless
How to (Cheated): ride full speed at a ramp, on impact, type in "BIGBANG" so that you press the last 'G' while on ramp, watch replay when respawned to see result
How to (Non-Cheated): take a gun and shoot the engine off the bike until it is on fire, then quickly hop on and ramp off a ramp, this method is harder to time, but gives you the satisfaction of not cheating, like cheated method, watch replay when respawned to see result
Replay:
Explosion StuntWall Climb:This odd stunt takes advantages of the "taxi boost" to get huge height
How to: find a ramp that runs into a wall of a building, get in a taxi (any taxi) and drive full speed on the ramp, once on ramp and still driving, honk the horn, causing you to boost onto the wall, once on wall, repeatedly keep honking until you are no longer on a wall, while landing, if your on your right side, steer to the right to straighten, if on left side, steer to left, if upside-down, get out and run away!
Notes:
- To get the "Taxi Boost" get 100 taxi fares
- While in air, stunts vary quite abit
Replay:
Wall ClimbCar Stunts:Car stunts are limited to spins and flips
How to: use a car and run of a ramp at an angle, or straight (your choice), while landing, if your on your right side, steer to the right to straighten, if on left side, steer to left, if upside-down, get out and run away!
Replay:
Car StuntSet-UpsBSM:The BSM is a way of making your own bumping ledges, thanks to Neo Anderson
How to set up: put a bike beside a corner or pole, run into the bike with another and just tap it so it pushes into the wall, if successful, the bike while be stuck at an angle, now you can bump off of it
Replay:
How to set up BSMBSM StuntPSM:The PSM, recently founded by ZeroX, is a nice way to get air
How to set up: find the end of a short wall (about the tallness of a PCJ 600), put a packer near it, then get another packer and ride of the first packer, onto the end of the wall, so that the new packer will tilt off and stay tilted, then get a bike and ramp off the back part of the tilted packer
Replay:
How to set up PSMPacker Grind:This method is used to get onto higher rails
How to set up: align a packer along a high rail, if rail is smaller, make the front steer away from the rail abit, if taller, put it more parallel, when doing stunt, ride up the packer and steer off it and onto the rail

Tutorial Video[/span]
Default PC keys:Num9: lean forward
Num6: lean back
Left/A: turn left
Right: turn right
Down: brake/reverse
Up: accelerate
Space: handbrake
Enter: enter/exit vehicle
Shift: boost in taxis, horn in everyother vehicle
Prefered PC keys:Num9: lean forward
Num6: lean back
A: turn left
D: turn right
S: brake/reverse
W: accelerate
Space: handbrake
Num0: enter/exit vehicle
Shift: boost in taxis, horn in everyother vehicle
When I first played, i found my hands to close to each other so i moved the directional keys to W-A-S-D, and put Enter/Exit to Num0 for quick access from the lean keys
GlossoryA2G:The shorter version of saying 'Air to Grind'
AGThe shorter version of saying 'Airgrab'
Modder:Someone who hacks into the game to cheat there way through stunting
NOTE: Some modding isn't for ceating
Natural Stunt:A stunt that requires no setup with any vehicles, as in a BSM is NOT a natural stunt
Replay/Rep:A replay/rep is a file that has your stunt in it, to view reps, press F1 while in game, to save a rep (only one can be saved at a time) press F2, to view the saved rep, press F3, if you want to save multiple reps, after you have saved a rep go to C:\My Documents\VC User File and look for a file named "replay.rep", rename it and/or move it and then you can save another rep without overwriting another one
Spawn:The verb to make something appear, like you can spawn a vehicle and it will appear instantly infront of you, or when you die, you SPAWN at the hospital
Tail:Sometimes the back of the bike is referred to as "the tail" as in usually a hitspin is spinning with impact on the tail, same goes for head as the front of the bike
Taxi Boost:After getting 100 fares for taxis, you will be rewarded a "boost", press Shift to use this boost. The boost is a motion that sends the taxi upwards about 10m as long as the tires are on a surface
Trainer:A program that can add convenience to stunting by have some special features like spawning vehicles and a 'jetpack' to move around the city faster
NOTE: Most trainer features aren't considered cheating
World Record (WR):Some stunters try to dominate by doing a better stunt, like a world record for spin, or height
