What is Session: Skate Sim?

A third-person skateboarding simulation focused on 1990s-style street skating at locations based on spots in New York City and Philadelphia. Each stick controls one foot as you practice tricks, complete challenges, customize your skater and board, and record clips without a scoring system.

+you enjoy practicing difficult lines without chasing scores
+you like filming and editing your own skate clips

Not for you if...

−you prefer quick, forgiving arcade-style trick controls
−you want multiplayer sessions with other skaters
−you mainly want vert skating and grab tricks
