About
My Skate Bro is a comprehensive skateboarding companion app available on iOS and Android that helps riders learn, practice, and track their progression across 180+ skateboard tricks. Each trick comes with prerequisites, step-by-step instructions, and exclusive tutorial videos that users can rewatch as needed. The app features a dice roller to randomly select your next trick challenge, keeping practice sessions fun and unpredictable. Progress is synced to a user account, meaning skaters can switch between devices without losing their history. Users can organize tricks into favorites lists or dedicated session lists for quick access during a skate sesh. The built-in Game of Skate (GOS) mode lets two or more players compete head-to-head, with full game history saved and shareable on social networks. For skaters who perform unique or personal moves, My Skate Bro allows creating custom tricks that integrate seamlessly into all other app features including GOS. A session scheduler helps riders plan future skate outings and select which tricks to focus on. The app also includes a helpful lexicon and beginner resources for those just getting started. The app is free to download with access to most content available at no cost. A small portion of premium content can be unlocked by watching an ad or through a subscription. My Skate Bro is ideal for beginner skaters looking for structured learning, intermediate riders tracking their trick progression, and groups of friends wanting a digital referee for Game of Skate sessions.
