We got SSX Tricky as a Christmas present from Alan and although it wasn't a game I'd ever considered getting beforehand, I ended up being very pleasantly surprised by it. Pulling off tricks and getting high scores in each of the levels became very addictive and the whole thing was just so much fun. Great music too and the trick-focused Tokyo level was especially good. I'm not such a fan of the later SSX games but I'll always think very fondly of Tricky.
