Sonic and friends speed through tracks on air boards, using individual special moves to strike down opponents. Air is a big element of ''Sonic Riders''. Your board's "fuel" source is air. You can fill up your air at various points on the course, but to race well you'll have to use another means of replenishment: performing tricks with your board. You'll also want to make use of turbulence from racers who are in front of you.

The game may crash after the third level in the Hero Story. To correct this, enable "Speed Up Disc Transfer Rate" in the game properties. An inaccurate fix was made in {{revision|4.0-4222}} and was reverted in {{revision|4.0-5531}}. Refer {{Issue|8725}}.

Finally fixed in {{revision|5.0-2431}}
The issue reoccured in {{revision|5.0-13170}} with the game crashing while in race after running for about 10 to 15 minutes, and could be corrected with "Speed Up Disc Transfer Rate" enabled. This was fixed in a later revision.

=== Slow Model Loading in CSS ===
After selecting your character and gear during the Character Select Screen, the game will load the model for that respective character-gear combination. This can take up to a second or so. Models load almost instantly with "Speed Up Disc Transfer Rate" enabled.
