Underground Skate

Film a street tape out of Detroit, chain tricks into combos that don’t stop, and skate your way from broke local to sponsored pro across a ten-city tour.

Combos that don’t stop

Every trick adds to the line at the bottom of the screen, and the multiplier climbs as long as you keep linking. Skate the story, race a two-minute clock in Classic, or Free Skate with no clock at all.

Start in Detroit

Mags runs the Iron Wheel skate shop and needs a demo tape to keep the lights on. Your friend Dez is filming. Skate the freight yard, the plaza and the skatepark, and film everything. If the tape is good enough, it leaves Detroit.

Seven locals have something for you to prove. Look for the gold marker over their heads.
