Grind of Skate

Game of S.K.A.T.E., but only grinds and slides count.

Rules

1. Place the start flag and start the match from Throwdowns.
2. The setter sets a grind or slide and must roll away clean.
3. Everyone else, in order, must match that exact trick.
4. A different grind/slide, a bail, or a timeout: a letter of G.R.I.N.D.
5. Flips, manuals, reverts and stalls are ignored: they neither set nor cost a letter.
6. The setter keeps setting while they land. A missed set passes the set on (no letter). A trick already set earlier in the match cannot be set again: it counts as a missed set.
7. Five letters and you are out. Last skater standing wins.

FS/BS, Switch, Fakie and Nollie matter: a FS 50-50 is not a BS 50-50.

How to play

1. Everyone in the session needs the same version of the mod.
2. Throwdowns, then Grind of Skate.
3. Set the number of skaters (2-8) and the turn time (15-120 s), then place the spot.
4. An orange ring appears. Friends skate into it and press E (or hold Y on pad) to join.
5. The host presses E or holds Y in the ring to start (at least 2 skaters). The keyboard bind can be changed in ReSkate Binds (grindskate join).

Forfeit / quit

• Forfeit: panel prompt (D-pad Up, press twice within 3 s). You are out, the match goes on.
• Quit event: the panel's Quit button. If the host quits, the match ends for everyone.
• Console: grindskate forfeit, grindskate quit, grindskate start, grindskate time <seconds> (host, before the start).
