Kick off with up to three friends in local split-screen action in cooperative or head-to-head modes — or see how you stack up against other players with the online leaderboards. With the master shredder Shaun White and his resident DJ by your side, your life can become a tapestry of finding fresh spots to skate and spinning tunes.

Boring and horrible controls. Integration with Wii board is bad and detracts from game play. Definitely skip this one!
