The latest trailer out of Gamescom for EA's upcoming SSX title show off a little bit of that social functionality we just heard about recently. After a quick walk around the world and the previously revealed NASA terrain data that was eventually turned into the game's maps, we get to see an example of how Ridernet will work, where you can pull in a ghost of a friend's (or presumably, a stranger's) run, and then race it on down a mountain, anywhere in the game's world.

You can also see a quick glimpse of the online gameplay, with "up to 100,000 players" competing all at once all around the globe. Not on the same map, we hope -- that would probably get a little crowded. There's a few screenshots of all of this functionality (and a sassy-looking updated Elise) in the gallery below.
