Known issues in skate.

  • Some players cannot export videos in MP4 format. On PC, exporting in WebM format works as a workaround.
  • Pinned tasks do not stay pinned after the game reconnects following inactivity.
  • Changing the graphics preset does not update the settings displayed at the bottom of the Graphics screen.
  • The 16:9 centered HUD and full-width-and-height UI options do not work in Windowed mode.
  • Daily and Mastery Task sections can sometimes show a blank screen.
  • The Quick Drop radial menu temporarily resets after joining a server.
  • AMD driver 26.6.1 can cause skate. to crash. Rolling back to driver 26.5.2 and restarting the game is the current workaround.
  • Tailslides and Noseslides are not detected correctly when approaching a ledge from its end.
  • The friends list can show duplicate entries for the same friend or fail to show friends at all.
  • Wallride detection can cause a skater to flip unnaturally.
  • The Smith-to-Tailslide task can fail to register even when performed correctly.
  • The wrong item can appear when using the Quick Drop menu to place an object.
