Gameplay

Continuing with the previous games in the series, Cool Boarders 3 gives the player the chance to snowboard down mountain courses while completing tricks to amass points. Some courses like Downhill, Boarder X, and Slalom, require the player to concentrate more on beating their CPU opponents' times to the finish line. While others, namely Slope Style, Half Pipe, and Big Air, force the player to pull off many big tricks in order to build up a large point score.
Boarders and boards

Unlike the previous games in the series, Cool Boarders 3 featured a vast number of playable characters, along with unlockable characters. At the start of the game, there are 13 different boarders with the chance to unlock 8 extra boarders upon beating the high scores.

Cool Boarders 3 also included 11 different snowboards and a further 12 unlockable boards each modeled after real boards from snowboard companies such as Burton and Ride.
Mountains
In Cool Boarders 3 there are 5 different mountains which each contain 6 different courses (or events).
The courses for each mountain (except Avalanche) are:


For the Avalanche mountain, the player is tasked with heading down a course as fast as possible in order to avoid being taken out by the avalanche coming down behind them. The avalanche provides obstacles in the form of balls of snow that can knock the player's boarder down. As the avalanche gets closer to the player, the snow balls become increasingly larger in size and in number until the player is passed over by the avalanche.
Reception
The game received an average score of 71.19% at GameRankings, based on an aggregate of 16 reviews.
