Playing School II in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 while listening to “Superman” by Goldfinger really makes me feel like it’s 2000 again. Ah, a simpler time…
Anyway, I’ve previously created a guide for finding the secret tape in School II, which is surprisingly tricky for such an early-game challenge. School II also features the “Wallride 5 Bells” challenge, which is easier than the Secret Tape, but it does take a little bit of know-how to pull off.
Mainly, you have to know how to wallride, which you can do by pressing the grind button (triangle on PS4) as you approach a wall. Once you’ve got that trick down pat, you’re ready to bust some bells.
I should also point out that this challenge is actually easier if you don’t invest stat points into your ollie and speed skills — with max stats, it’s far too easy to overshoot those jumps. This challenge is best performed with a character who hasn’t had a lot of stat upgrades yet.
It would be a little tricky to explain where each bell is in writing, so I’ve created a video of all five bell locations. A full bell run can easily take less than a minute if you know where they all are.
So, without further ado, here’s the video of the “Wallride 5 Bells” challenge in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2. (Note that this is School II from THPS2 and not School from THPS.)
