A Godsend

Ever since I stopped skating, there has been a skateboard shaped hole in my life. With the introduction of realistic mode, this app has pretty much filled that hole. This is the only skateboarding app that matters. But despite being the best, its not quite perfect. Ill explain.

THE GOOD:
-Accurate trick detection
-Intuitive and satisfying controls that mimic skating well.
-Difficulty. Having tricks be hard to pull off makes them that much more satisfying.
-Well designed parks (for the most part)
-Slo-mo and rotational features.
-Easy to use session markers.

THE BAD:
-Too many micro transactions. I get that true axis needs to keep making money if theyre gonna continually support this app, but they really should throw their fans a bone once in a while. I think that at least some of the Street League parks should be free, being that theyre sponsored in the first place.

-Not much of a street element. There are places based on street spots but they are very arcadey. It would be nice to have an open area thats dense with spots but still based strongly in reality, like in EA Skate.

-Not much board customization.

-Hard to catch speed. This is more true of realistic mode. There should be some kind of pumping mechanic so that speed isnt lost on tranny obstacles.

It would also be cool if there were an option to have shoes on the board that preformed that tricks as you flicked them.

Overall, if you like skateboarding, this is the app for you.
