What you can’t find in skateboarding online shops

Written on May 21, 2009 – 5:36 pm | by Maria Mihale |

I really envy those who are able to do all sorts of impossible tricks, at least at first sight, with the skateboard. And I envy them because I would have enjoyed very much to have such a passion in my life, but I think that I lack a couple of things that would have made perfect for the job, if I may say so.



On the other hand, I am afraid of walking on the skateboard, so the envious feeling isn’t quite justified. But maybe a game controller would be perfect for me.

Those who are into playing all sorts of famous games probably appreciate more a unique game controller than someone like me, for example. The Tony Hawk: RIDE is what the doctor ordered, coming from Tony Hawk and Activision.



So let’s see what the Tony Hawk: RIDE is able to do. First of all, it comes with a wireless skateboard controller which can be connected to the game. This way, the user can enjoy the ultimate gaming experience, which is much more dynamic. On the other hand, there are accelerometers, motion sensors that allow the user “to physically control the action by performing various movements and gestures on the board that directly translate into amazing tricks in the game”.
