For English keyboards, I believe it would be LSHIFT. On my Nordic keyboard layout (not captured in picture), it's actually the < button. Whatever button you have to your immediate left of Z will be your boost/square button. Nosegrab would therefore be Z + X, whereas tailgrab would be C + V. Mute, method, stalefish and indy in that order. My Controls Setup (all keys with green drawings on them are in use)Īrrow keys take care of the corresponding left stick movements. It's more than playable, not as enjoyable as controller would be, but it gets the job done as a last resort.
This is how I played the game when I set it up to play with keyboard for fun a couple of times/when I wanted to play SSX on a flight and obviously couldn't use a controller. Even the cheapest piece of junk you can get that's USB-compatible will probably be better than keyboard. Like Joey said, a controller is really to be recommended.
