The Foundry is one of the first levels you’ll skate through in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4, and it’s packed with fun challenges and hidden collectables. From grinding rails over lava to soaking the foreman and collecting secret tapes, there’s a lot to explore. In this guide, we’ll walk you through all ten goals, show you where to find every stat point, Skaterbucks, and hidden deck, and help you unlock that tricky Iron Galaxy logo.
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 All Foundry Goals and Collectables
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 is a classic third-person skateboarding game with a fun, arcade-style feel. In the Foundry level, you’ll have ten different goals to complete. Here’s a quick rundown of all the challenges you’ll be tackling.
Skate Location
You will immediately recognise the letter S as soon as your run begins if you skate down the left side. Just behind it, near the exploding tanks, is the letter E. Keep following that same path, and you’ll see the letter T sitting on a rail you can grind. After that, head down the ramp and make your way toward the centre of the map to grab the letter A. The last letter, K, is waiting for you on a half-pipe right next to the ramp you came down from at the beginning.
Indie over the halfpipe
You start off in a great spot to complete this Goal in Foundry, but you might need a bit more speed to clear the gap. Before heading down the ramp, turn around and go up the half-pipe behind you to build up some momentum. Once you come back down, ride straight down the main ramp and, as you jump over the half-pipe, press Right + Circle (or Right + B) to pull off an Indie grab.
Soak the foreman
You’ll find the Foreman on the right side of the Foundry, standing on a catwalk near a pool of water. To knock him in and finish the Goal, just grind the rails on the left side, that’ll send him flying straight into the water!
Grind the molten bucket
Start by skating down the ramp at the beginning of your run. After you pass the exploding tanks on the left, look for a small platform next to a lava pit, that’s where the Molten Bucket shows up. To reach it, you’ll need more air than usual. Use the half-pipes nearby to build up your Special meter, which gives you a higher jump. Once the bucket swings over to pour, hit the small ramp by the lava and jump up to grind along the side of the bucket.
Unjam the valves the Galaxy logo & secret room.
All five valves are located around the outer edges of the map, and you can unjam them by grinding the rail in front of each one. Here’s where to find them:
- Valve #1: From the start, head down the left ramp, and you’ll see the first valve right there.
- Valve #2: Keep going past the flaming tanks and look on the left side to find the second valve.
- Valve #3: Continue along the path, then go down the next ramp to spot the third valve.
- Valve #4: After that, head up the ramp directly in front of you, and you’ll see valve #4 on the left side.
- Valve #5: For the last one, skate past the half-pipe, and you’ll find valve #5 again on the left side.
Just grind each of the rails in front of them, and you’re good to go.
You’ll only be able to get this collectable after you unjam all five valves. Once that’s done, it unlocks the generator core right behind you at the start of the level. Skate into the generator, and when you hit the ramp inside, use a Vert Break (press R2/RT as you launch into the air) to land on the spiral path above. From there, just follow the spiral upward, and you’ll find the collectable waiting at the very top.
Secret tape location
Right at the start of your run, turn right and use the ramp to jump up onto the catwalk. Once you’re on the catwalk, follow it all the way to the end until you reach a room with two glass windows. The Secret Tape is sitting on the railing just outside the right-hand window. Nail the jump, stay balanced, and skate across to grab the tape.
Stat point locations
You can grab the first stat point right at the start of your run. Just turn around and grind the rail between the two half-pipes behind you.
The second stat point is in the middle of the map. To get it, skate down the big ramp at the start, jump over the half-pipe, and then use the ramp in the centre to reach it.
Cash locations
Here’s how to grab all three cash stash collectables in Foundry:
- First cash stash: Head down the ramp at the start, then turn right and follow the wall. You’ll spot the Foreman standing by the pool of water. The Skaterbucks are on the ramp just below him; simply skate over and grab it.
- Second cash stash: This one is located on the beginning ramp’s left side. Jump into the air, and as soon as you’re airborne, hit R2 (or RT) to do an Acid Bomb and drop down onto the collectable.
- Third cash stash: Start by jumping to the catwalks using the ramps at the beginning. Follow the catwalk all the way to the glass-walled room at the end. From here, you’ll need to make two tricky jumps: first, jump onto the narrow railing ahead, then make a second jump to reach the area where the final Skaterbucks is waiting.
Hidden deck location
There’s a secret skate deck hidden on the left side of the Foundry, near the exploding tanks. To get it, jump onto the catwalks by using the ramp on the left side right after you start your run. Once you’re up there, head toward the northwest corner of the map. From there, jump off and grind to grab the deck and get it.
