Like any good skating game, performing a variety of classic tricks is an essential part of the character’s gameplay kit. It’s no different in Skate Story, a far more surreal, dramatic, and visually stunning experience that still uses conventional tricks for its gameplay.
Here is a reference to all the main tricks you can perform and combine with other moves in Skate Story if you need the entire list on your hand.

The tricks above are essentially what require unique inputs to pull off, meaning, you’ll be able to combine these together with rotations, reverts, spins, directions, and more to create new modified tricks on the fly.
So, for instance, if you revert, you’ll perform the “Switch” version of the trick. The more complex the trick, the more points you’ll earn.
This can lead to more than 70 combinations, which sounds like a lot, but if you have a good grip on these tricks, you will be able to create new combinations fluently and build up the combo meter with ease.
