The graphics of the game are widely praised for their quality and realism, especially considering it is a mobile title, with many users noting the impressive visual design and smooth performance. However, some players express disappointment over the limited number of free maps and the need for in-game purchases, which detracts from the overall experience. Overall, while the graphics are a strong point, there are calls for improvements and more content accessibility.
- “Amazing controls and graphics, probably the best skateboarding game out there.”
- “Graphics are quite nice, and I can see that a lot of effort was put into them.”
- “It's amazing, great game, fantastic graphics and sound.”
- “The decks and the griptape had kind of childish graphics.”
- “Good game but I wouldn't let me do any of the tricks. I don't know if this is a bug or something, but it's annoying and the graphics are bad. All the good items cost money and it wouldn't let me move sometimes, so I would be sitting there trying to move yet nothing's happening. Overall, wouldn't recommend.”
- “I like the game and it is really fun, but the graphics suck and the fact that you have to buy zones makes it boring. Please update the graphics and make it so you earn the zones.”

The monetization model of the game is a mixed bag, with players appreciating the absence of ads but expressing frustration over the high cost of in-app purchases for additional maps and content. Many users feel that the game leans towards being a "cash grab," as they are limited to one free map and must pay for others, leading to a desire for more free content or a lower price point. Overall, while the lack of ads is a significant positive, the pricing strategy for additional features is a common point of contention among players.
- “No ads, which is amazing.”
- “People complain about the price but there's no microtransactions... you pay for what you get, fair price.”
- “This is a great game, very fun and no ads.”
- “This game is just missing a few things; better steering, manuals, and a way to unlock other maps besides in-app purchases.”
- “Its buggy, half the time you cannot jump, half the time, it's a cash grab, 1 map while you have to pay for all the others, trying to turn is painful and doesn't actually do its job.”
- “I would rather watch ads than pay for a map.”

- “I love the gameplay but am disgusted with how there's only one free map, and that is the backyard, which is boring after some time.”

Overall, the game is seen as fun but in dire need of stability improvements to enhance playability.

The story aspect of the game is criticized for its lack of depth and variety, with players expressing frustration over the limited number of maps and missions available. Many users feel that the game becomes repetitive once all missions are completed, and they desire more challenging obstacles and unlockable content without additional costs. Overall, while the gameplay is enjoyable, the narrative and progression elements leave much to be desired, leading to a sense of boredom after initial engagement.
- “Great game, I just would like to request that they add more challenging obstacles and missions. The graphics are great for a mobile game, and the controls are easy and understandable.”
- “I like the game, but the reason why I rate it 4 stars is because of the maps. Every time I play this game, you need to unlock the maps when all missions are done yet.”
- “The fact that you only have 1 map to play on is just boring. At least make a map unlockable, like you have to do a quest to unlock it.”
- “It's a good game, but three things: first, it gets boring after a while; second, the missions make no sense—where is the spine in the motel?; third, whenever I play and do tricks and land, it says I biffed it even though I didn't crash.”
- “The fact that you only have one map to play on is just boring; at least make a map unlockable, like you have to do a quest to unlock it.”
- “Fun to play, so I install it every once in a while, resetting my progress, but once I've finished all the missions, then it's just boring and I uninstall.”

Overall, the music in the game receives mixed feedback from users. While some appreciate the existing soundtrack, many feel it lacks variety and suggest adding more engaging songs to enhance the gameplay experience. Additionally, there are complaints about technical issues, such as the game sometimes only displaying a black screen with menu music.
- “I like the graphics, the music, the controls, and maps/mods.”
- “It is a cool game and you can play online with friends and offline. It is fun to explore the map, and you can do a good amount of tricks with just two fingers; they just need to include better song choices.”
- “It's a really good game if you turn off the music and the sound effects and turn on DaBaby; then you get a good experience and can use earbuds.”
- “The only thing that didn't get better over time is the lack of tricks and the fact that there is no music.”
- “There are two things which I think could improve the game: disable the auto-kick option and add a 'manual' trick. Also, some music during gameplay would be better.”
- “It is a cool game and you can play online with friends and offline. It is fun to explore the map, and you can do a good amount of tricks with just two fingers; they just need to include better songs to choose from.”
