The Chimp's Skating Challenge is the hidden third mission of the Freezy Flake Galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy 2 and its Nintendo Switch port. This mission takes place in either previous mission, though selecting it will always take the player to the first mission, while the Prima Games guide suggests the second mission.

Mission

The player must first make their way to the next planet and destroy one of the trees near the small frozen pond. If playing on the first mission, the player needs to burn the tree by using a Fire Flower. If playing on the second mission, the player needs to use a Rock Mushroom to ram into the tree. The tree will reveal a Warp Pipe which will take the player to a skating rink hosted by The Chimp. Talking to The Chimp will have him challenge the player to skate into the Gummits that pop out, but to avoid the spiked ones. Green Gummits are worth 10 points, whereas Gold Gummits are worth 50. The Gummits will remain above ground for a few seconds before burrowing back down. If the player can beat The Chimp's high score of 500 within a 40 second time limit, he will reward the player with the Power Star. The player does not lose a life if they fail the challenge, unlike most of the Chimp's missions.
