Sonic Rush Nintendo DS Secrets

Easy S-Ranks

During any stage, try to find any rails nearby. When you find one, keep on doing the grind trick back and forth (The score for rails doesn't decrease like with other tricks) until you are sure you have the max trick score (Which is 20000). Now try to find any method of losing without touching ANY checkpoints nearby, when you lose and start the stage again on your previous checkpoint (Or the beginning of the stage), you will have the same time you had when you first reached the checkpoint. Now just beat the stage as fast as you can without worrying about trick points (Except for the Tension Gauge) and when you beat the stage, you will have a max trick score of 20000. This way, all you need to worry about when getting S-Ranks is your speed (Rings count more as a bonus).
