— SSX Tricky Description
|
Aloha Ice Jam is a course that made its debut in SSX (2000). Initially the final track of the SSX world circuit, the course recognized for it being carved out from a massive iceberg, its tropical vibes, and intense jumps & turns.
It also appeared in SSX Tricky but with some changes. Two of the most notable changes between the two games is the layout of the grandstands near the starting line, and the shortcut pipes near the middle of the hill being see through rather than wooden and colourful.

SSX (2000)[]
"An iceberg in a tropical harbor with a course carved through it that is barely imaginable." - Course Description
"You're boarding atop an iceberg being towed into a tropical port. Talk about meltdown - you're boarding on pure slush. The surf is definitely up on this glacier. Palm trees, warm ocean breezes, and a sandy beach at the bottom of your run. You know there's plenty of ice for your tropical drinks. It's the perfect island paradise until you take the wrong turn and end up wishing for a life preserver. Don't forget the suntan lotion, bud. Catch a wave - you're shredding on top of the world." - Game Manual
