In-game
In Skate 2, after some missions with Rob Dyrdek, the player can hire Big Black to assist them with Mongocorp areas. Big will run around, pushing the guards and attempt to clear the area for the player to skate in. This becomes useful during some missons, and when the player wants to do a tricks in an otherwise unsafe area. He is also available in freeskate and party modes after unlocking him.
