— Airboarder Description

Airboarder (エアボーダー Eabōdā) is the credits game in Rhythm Heaven and the 15th minigame in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. In this game, the player controls an airboarder airboarding through a colorful land of blocks with two other airboarders and Barista. It is unlocked after beating Remix 6. This rhythm game, after beating it, contains the credits and the staff. This game also marks the half-way point before all sequels. The ending theme song, "That's Paradise", plays during this game.

Gameplay

The player controls the third airboarder in line. The goal is to avoid blocks that are in the way of the track by ducking underneath the objects blocking their heads and the objects that will make them trip over. This is done by following the other two airboarders' rhythm and poses to better predict the timing for jumping and ducking.
