Tokyo is the last competition level in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4. Even though it’s inspired by the real city, the skate spots here are completely original and made just for the game. If you’re aiming to complete everything, one of the toughest challenges is earning the Platinum Medal by doing a special trick over a secret gap and still taking first place in the competition. Here’s how you can do it step by step.
Tokyo Platinum Goal in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4
Tokyo is one of the levels in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4, and it’s the final competition level in the game.

Once you’ve unlocked the Pro Goals, you can also go after a Platinum Medal in the competition levels.
To get it, you need to complete the Platinum Goal in any heat and finish the competition in first place.
Step 1: Unlock the Gap Area
- If you haven’t already, you will need to open up a secret area.
- Look up near the middle section of the map; there’s a hanging platform you can hit.
- Smack into it and it will unlock a hidden path.
Step 2: Find the Drunkard Alley
- After unlocking the area, head into Drunkard Alley, which is where the Chonko-Nabe gap is.
- You will know it when you see it: it’s a narrow little gap between buildings.
Step 3: Do a South Flip Over the Gap
- The South Flip is usually Up, Up + Square by default.
- Line yourself up and do the South Flip while clearing the gap.
- If it lands cleanly, you’re good.
That’s it. If you did everything right, the game will register the trick and give you credit once the comp ends. You can even end the run early if you’ve already scored well enough. Just doing the trick isn’t enough, you also need to complete all three heats and win the competition. Make sure the South Flip over the Chonko-Nabe Gap is part of your run. Once you’ve secured first place and finished the trick, you’re done.
