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.

In Sonic Riders, Dr. Eggman challenges Sonic and his friends to a Worldwide Grand Prix, and the prize for coming out on top is an ultra-rare Chaos Emerald! Gliding on air boards – which are performance-oriented for each playable character – gamers will experience a heightened sense of sports-style racing tension as Sonic and his pals perform tricks and stunts over treacherous wide-open terrain.

Problems
Hero Story Crash
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.
Specular Highlights
Specular highlights do not appear in D3D11 or OpenGL. They only appear correctly in the D3D9 backend. See issue 6169.
Audio Desync in Cutscenes
The audio will get further and further ahead of the video during cutscenes. Use DSP LLE to fix this problem. Fixed by the merger of New-AX-HLE 2.0 in 3.5-1154.
Configuration
Only configuration options for the best compatibility where they deviate from defaults are listed.
