They cost a pretty penny, but save you the work of having to aim for that 100% on every level. With that said, there are still a two characters locked behind very specific challenges. Here's what you need to do to unlock the whole roster.

When you've unlocked or purchased a Secret Skater, they will be added to your pro roster just like everyone else, and any custom skaters you've created. Although there's no great benefit to unlocking these characters, unless you're a big fan that is, each Secret Skater comes with unique special tricks which will make for some sweet photos in photo mode at the very least.

There are two separate Secret Skaters locked behind the Digital Deluxe version of the game too, Revenant and Doom Slayer. But, since these are unique to these fancy editions, there's nothing you can do to unlock them if you haven't purchased the right version, unfortunately.
