Epic Skater – The Ultimate Tips, Cheats and Strategy Guide

Epic Skater is a new endless skateboarding game for the iOS and Android. The goal is to go as far as you can and score as many points as you can, and just like the old Tony Hawk franchise, the points are gained by doing tricks and by stringing together as many tricks as you possibly can. Read on for some tips and tricks for Epic Skater!

You have a number of tricks you can do, mainly kick tricks, manuals and grinds, but also spins later on in the game. It’s possible to literally string together an endless combination of tricks. All that you have to do is land in a manual whenever you land back on the ground. To do this, when you’re about to land, swipe in a direction and then hold your finger on the screen, and he’ll land in a manual. If you let go by accident, then he’ll start doing a kick trick and lose the whole combo.

Manuals are done by swiping in a direction when your skater is on the ground or about to land on the ground and then holding the screen. Swiping and letting go results in a kick trick, while landing on a nearby rail or wall results in a grind trick, and swiping before you hit the wall or rail results in a different form of grind trick.

Coins are the main currency of the game, and are mostly collected during your runs. You can get free coins from offers as well. Hit the free coins button, and an advertisement video will pop up. Watch the whole thing and then when you’re done, you’ll earn 25 coins for free. It’s not much but it adds up over time.

You can buy all kinds of upgrades to your skater either before you enter a round, or by going to the stats area. Speed upgrades will make your skater skate faster, while grind, kick and ollie upgrades will improve his balance, decrease his speed loss and make it easier to land tricks. Spin upgrades will increase the speed of his spin moves.

You can string together multiple spin and kick tricks in a row, but this is dicey unless you either jump off of a ramp or down a huge drop, or over a huge gap. Wait until the big jumps to try to string all of these together. When you don’t have big jumps, go from kick to manual to kick to manual etc etc in order to string huge combos together rapidly.
