EA Sports has released the SSX demo Xbox Live and PlayStation Network (arrives Feb 22 for PSN in Europe).

The demo contains:

• Two SSX tutorials featured in the full game: Skyboarding – an aerial tutorial where you learn the basic aerial controls and grabs as you freefall; and Ground Tutorial – a track designed to whip you into shape as you master jumps, grinds, spins, boost, combos and everything else that you’ll need as you attempt to defy reality!
• Two unique events for SSX fans to experience: JT2, a race event in the Rockies and Bulldog, a trick event in New Zealand.
• View the Online Producer Video Series: Explore + RiderNet; Global Events + Geotags
• You can play as Zoe Payne, but if you ‘Refer a Friend’ to the demo you’ll unlock Mac Fraser as a playable character.

Some tips and tricks for the demo from EA Sports.

SSX will be available for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on February 28 (N. America), March 2 (Europe) and March 15 (Japan).
