Abilities
The Chaos Emerald (Extreme Gear) differs greatly from the other Extreme Gears. The most noticable is Sonic turning into Super Sonic.

Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity
When Sonic starts the race with this Extreme Gear, he stars out running noticeably slower than the other racers. When he collects at least one ring Sonic transforms into Super Sonic and starts to ride his board. (Unlike most games Sonic only needs one ring to go Super Sonic.) When Super Sonic collects 60 rings he gets a boost and becomes a Power type. Once this happens he burns though rings twice as fast. Another difference is that instead of running on Gravity Points to use gravity action Super Sonic uses rings to use gravity action.

Sonic Free Riders
After selecting the Chaos Emerald Gear with Sonic, you start out in Sonic's base form with 0 Rings. Once you have collected 30 Rings, you transform into Super Sonic. You can continue to gain rings up to 100. But Once you Kick Dash, you get of your board and He levitates above the track.Super Sonic reaches the speed of 200 instantly and performs S rank tricks without animation. Once your Ring count reaches 0, you transform back down to Sonic until you gather 30+ more.

Trivia

 * Super Sonic is the only Sonic character that doesn't shout: "Gear Change" when he changes gear parts in Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity.


 * Even though in these games the Chaos Emerald is considered an Extreme Gear, Sonic just rides his Blue Star and goes Super Sonic.


 * In Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity, Super Sonic's voice sounds deeper in contrast with other appearances of Super Sonic where his voice stays the same.
 * Even though Sonic needs all the Chaos Emeralds to go super form, the Extreme Gear is called Chaos Emerald and in the picture there is only one Chaos Emerald.
 * The Chaos Emerald (Extreme Gear) does not make Sonic invincible, as he can still take damage the same way everyone else can.
 * In Sonic Free Riders, Sonic starts out in his base form, but after collecting at least 30 Rings he can transform into his Super Form instead of the typical 1 Ring transformation.
 * Sonic Free Riders is the only Riders title to have Super Sonic off his board.
