Skate Mobile

Tap the map below to start. Every movement number is on a slider. Two sticks, laid out like Skate: the left stick skates, the right stick does tricks with Skate's flick-it motions.

• Left thumb steers: move from where you touched, pull down to powerslide to a stop, hold left or right in the air to spin. Double tap it to revert (a flat 180 to fakie; in a manual it spins you round and you carry on manualling).
• Manuals: tip the right stick about halfway down (or halfway up for a nose manual). Manuals keep a combo going.
• Walk gets you off the board to walk anywhere, including up stairs; while walking the right stick turns and tilts the camera. Skate gets you back on.
• Right thumb does tricks, also wherever you touch. Tap it to push (each tap is a kick); tap, then touch and hold to keep pushing until you let go. Pull down, flick up: ollie. Down, then up-left: kickflip. Down, then up-right: heelflip. Down, then arc round the bottom onto the right or left: pop shuvit. Swing in from the right side to the bottom, flick up-left: 360 flip. Push up and flick down for nollies. Keep the thumb out at the rim after a flip's flick and the board keeps flipping (Double, Triple and on) until you let go.
• No-comply: on the ground, double tap the left thumb and keep it down (like a grab), then ollie with the right thumb (a boneless when nearly stopped). It pops higher and slower than an ollie.
• Walk, Return and Set spot sit round the left stick. The ☰ button next to them opens the trick list (every trick, with its stick motion, ticked off once you land it), the map, camera, replay, tag and tuning.
• Set spot drops a marker where you are, facing the way you're going; Return puts you back there, standing, to try the line again.
• In the air the same motions are late flips, worth a bonus (land them fully round). Reach a rail with a kickflip or heelflip half way round for a darkslide. Hold the right stick in a direction to line the board up for a grind before you land on the rail.
• Grabs: in the air, double tap the left thumb and keep it down. The right thumb picks the grab: toe side Indy, heel side Melon, up Nosegrab, down Tailgrab, diagonals Mute, Method, Crail, Stalefish. Lift the left thumb before you land.
• Wallrides, wallies, bonks, hippie jumps: jump into a wall at an angle to ride it, and ollie off it for a wallie. Jump onto a hydrant, bin or post to bonk it. Ollie just before a bike rack or bar to hop over it while the board rolls under.
