Gameplay
As a racing game, the objective is to pass the finishing line first before the other competition, though different objectives maybe available depending on the available challenges. Extreme Gear would require air to function or force the rider to run slower on foot. Air can be restored with various tricks of ramps or by riding on others turbulance, the later being a more effective method of both gaining air as well as advancing past whomever produced the slipstream. However in later games slipstreams become less useful.

Adrien Riders 2 drops the concept of air for Gravity Points, allowing players to ride indefinately unless using Gravity Actions. Adrien Riders: Freestyle return the use of air, but with full-body motion control.
