 The game plays similar to the "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater" series of video games, in that the user holds a button to increase their speed, and releases it to jump.Also, much like "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater", various "tricks" can be performed by pressing one of the face buttons, including grabs, flips and grinds, while in the air or near edges of objects.While skating normally, the user can also "cess slide" by using the shoulder buttons, and 'manual' by pressing the Up and Down directional buttons in quick succession.
