Fun Concept, Hard to Control

The concept of the game is novel, yet the controller was not designed well. At points in the game where you are forced to do specific tricks, it can be incredibly aggrevating trying to make it do what you want. Forget the advanced modes where you actually have to really steer yourself, the steering is terrible. It either doesn't respond, or your skater is cutting donuts about 2 feet in diameter. However, I paid $20 for it, so I can't really complain...

I was hoping this would get the kid's butts OFF the couch, but it didn't. My son (11 yrs.) finds it frustrating, daughter (12 1/2) thinks it's boring. Oh well................at this rate, they'll never wear it out.

my brother was so frustrated with it, the board is EXTREMELY sensitive to turing, my brother can do everything in real life but this game is so touchy, he has to sit on the floor to make it turn so it doesn't swerve to the other side of the screen, so aggravating.
