Tony hawk shred will not calibrate, have tried everything suggested by others (since christmas) for two months, still can not calibrate

It's possible that walls, people, or other entities are triggering the IR sensors on the sides of the board. To prevent this issue, make sure that there are four feet of free space on all sides whenever playing and that there are no large metal objects nearby.

Return to the main menu and select "Options", then select "Calibrate Board" and follow the onscreen instructions. Make sure to follow the steps exactly and hold the board in the calibrating positions for the amount of the time the video that is play is telling you.

During the initial IR sensor calibration process ensure that you are standing away from the board and that you are motionless. When it is time to calibrate each individual IR sensor you will then be shown some positions on the board to hold. Ensure that your entire foot is covering the lens of the particular IR sensor you are instructed to cover. Also ensure the board is facing the right direction. The buttons on the board should be on the left side of the board. Cover the whole sensor for the full count. Tony Hawk will say "Got it" when the timer is finishing. Continue to hold that board position until the button prompt to continue appears. Stepping off of the board before that will cause an error even after Tony Hawk says "Got it". You do not need to press a button to continue to move on to the next step. The calibration video will move on to the next step on its own.

If you still have issues with the calibration then try lowering the lights in the room. Sometimes bright lights can interfere with the IR sensors.

hope this helps

I have Tony Hawk Shred for Wii. I am trying to calibrate it. I am on the left side and it just won't calibrate. Any suggestions? Thanks, Karla

What worked for me after returning 4 times was to set the sensor settings in the wii settings to below the tv but put the sensor above the tv with 2 old and 2 new batteries

How to set up tony hawk shred board. on the tv it says to connect the board, and the light on the board keeps blinking green

You need to connect the board to the XBOX before you can calibrate...press the Connect button on the main console (on my XBOX 360S it is directly to the left of port 1 for the game controller), then press and hold the tiny button far left on the board controller. That's as far as I got, it won't calibrate to save my life!

I can't get my Tony hawk shred controller to connect

Use older batteries. Do not use the batteries that came with the board. After you switch the batteries re-calibrate and it should work fine.

Tony hawk shred board will not calibrate even with enough clearance all around keeps saying something did not go through.

I had the same problem. Do not use the batteries that come with the board. Use slightly older batteries and re-calibrate the board, this should work.
