Tony Hawk performs a Level 6 Freak out in THUG2.
Freak Outs were added to Tony Hawk's Underground 2, Underground 2 Remix, Amerian Wasteland, American Sk8land (DS), and Proving Ground (DS). This feature gave players a chance to gain extra points, getting your special back, and to simulate what would happen in real life after bailing.
How to Freak Out
The only way to get a chance to Freak Out is to bail. Although, you have to bail in a certain way in order for the "Tantrum Meter" to pop up. When it does, tap Y/Triangle/Touch the bars on the lower screen (DS only). The bar must cross at least one white line to Freak Out, or else, you won't Freak Out.
