- To do a Christ Air, press diagonal down-right + Circle (twice) on default controls.
- Make sure you do the Christ Air while jumping over the bank.
Once you land it, you should see the challenge marked as complete. Simply landing the trick isn’t enough. Complete all three heats. Win the overall competition. You can spot the famous Christ the Redeemer statue in the distance, standing tall on top of Corcovado hill.
