### 4/5 — Love it

*2021-01-30, version 5.8*

Been boarding for a bit and this is great to show me what next I could do, only gripe is that videos don’t work right

### 5/5 — Suggestion

*2021-01-16, version 5.8*

Great app all the way around but one thing I would suggest is a how to install or fix parts on your bike for example hit to install rear rim. I think it would help the young and upcoming riders a lot. It would teach them how to fix there own bike when they order parts. It would be a great way to help the bmx community.

### 4/5 — Love this app!

*2020-11-27, version 5.8*

I personally love this app so much the only reason I take a star away is because there are so many people on this website using it to show there.. inappropriate websites and they are following people I wish you could report them or remove them from following you it bothers me cause there are kids using this App and they don’t need to see that..

### 4/5 — App keeps crashing...

*2020-09-25, version 5.8*

I love this app!! But the only annoying thing is that if I try to watch a video that’s not on the feed the app crashes. Please fix this!!

### 5/5 — Super simple

*2020-09-11, version 5.8*

It’s simple to use but it has a lot of good features 
It gives good suggestions on what tricks to learn and how to do them

### 5/5 — Pls keep updating

*2020-09-08, version 5.8*

I love riders and I have some update ideas... 1 you should have a map with street spots so if anyone finds a street spot near you they can put it on the map 2 videos should just play. What I mean is it takes time to load or play the videos

### 5/5 — Great app some bugs

*2020-08-06, version 5.8*

It’s great helped me out A LOT bit sometimes the text is in Russian and not English I believe it is because Riders is a Russian made app but sometimes it’s annoying when I can’t read the text

### 5/5 — This app is amazing!!

*2020-06-03, version 5.8*

This is a safe kid friendly app. You can post videos of you doing sports and this app helps you get better!! You need to get this app!!!

### 5/5 — Needs more people

*2020-02-02, version 5.8*

Great app, I just wish that there were more people in the app. I see the same peoples videos over and over again. Not really a complaint, but I want you to tell people about this app, I love it.

### 5/5 — Please add roller blades and roller skates

*2019-12-28, version 5.8*

The app is really nice it will just be a lot better if they can add roller blades and roller skates other than that it’s very nice and I like using it because not only it teach you how to use your ride but also you can show the world how good you are at what’s your ride

### 1/5 — PARENTS BEWARE OF PORNOGRAPHY

*2022-09-15, version 5.9.5*

My 13yr old son downloaded this app under my supervision. He is a beginner mountain biker and an aspiring gymnast and so we thought it would be a good resource. 
However, we encountered some VERY EXPLICIT SEXUAL video in the “trampoline” section. 
Please (developers) change YOUR  age restrictions/limit which is currently 4+. OR please monitor/screen YOUR content. 
This is the second review I write because I am extremely disgusted and appalled as a parent  at the images I saw in your app.

### 1/5 — Dangerous fake profiles

*2021-03-10, version 5.8*

This app says it’s for ages 4 and up. I like the idea of it, learning new things and tutorials, encouragement. But there’s a fake profile following one of my kids now. I’m relieved this is on my phone since they don’t have their own devices. Their profile is linked to porn and to investigate with one click, it ends up playing on my phone. We looked up how to restrict them, but none of those options are working. How can this happen in an app that states it’s practically safe for babies? Looks like you guys need some help. Change your age profile! It should be 18+!

### 1/5 — Blocking People

*2020-09-07, version 5.8*

Please allow a way to block people. Also you have to make an account to even open the app, you should be able to see what the app looks like but to access the features you have to make an account. Other than that this app is great wish I could give a 5 star.

### 2/5 — Son loves it, mom is disappointed

*2021-08-06, version 5.9*

My son loves this app and it motivates him to learn new tricks.  I was super disappointed to see some users liking my sons video who have links to porn/prostitution. I thought it would be easy to block these bots but I don’t see a way. Great app but definitely need to be able to block these users.

### 3/5 — A good app but there is a big problem

*2021-04-12, version 5.8*

On the try next thing...it’s trying to get me to do insane tricks like triple backflip and backflip tail-whip even though I haven’t learned a backflip same for tail-whip and bars-spin. Is there an easy fix I’m missing or is there a problem with the app? One more thing there is a couple of terminology that is wrong like an opposite tail whip which is a heel whip or a disaster stall which is called a 5-0 and so on... thank you for your time and please fix this

### 3/5 — The app is good, but

*2021-03-19, version 5.8*

I see the app's value, but unfortunately, I cannot enjoy it because every time I try to watch a video posted in the app, I got a black screen on my phone. And the only way to use it is to read the comments and some other text content.

I did try many apps, the Riders better any of them, but the glitch is bothered me and such a trigger to uninstall it.

I will be happy to change my review, unsure if you guys are still interested in working on the app.

### 3/5 — Preview videos freeze app

*2021-01-03, version 5.8*

I’m running this on iOS 14.2, and every time I try to play a preview video (Longboard), the screen goes black and have to close the app to get it to respond. (Sorry to leave this as a review, I couldn’t find support.)

### 4/5 — Good app but needs improvements

*2021-05-27, version 5.8*

My advice for this app is that if you want tips for tricks most of the people are pretty nice but there are a few people out there that are just there to ruin your day. so overall this app is really good but I am going to give it a 4 out of 5 because there are some very small issues, like spelling and grammar.

### 4/5 — FIX THE VIDEOS

*2021-05-15, version 5.8*

Love the app but every time I try to play one of the tutorial videos , nothing plays and my screen freezes on black and I have to exit the app each time

### 4/5 — The concept of the app is awesome

*2021-02-02, version 5.8*

There are some minor technical problems on the app but it is just minor issue.
Wish the demo video can have a slow motion or a more precise slide bar that can allow user to slide back and forth to look at some details of the trick. But overall the experience pretty good and layout is user-friendly.

### 5/5 — New User

*2022-08-29, version 5.9.5*

Man, I just started skating.. been like a month now. This app has been wonderful. So much knowledge condensed into one location.. I love it.

### 5/5 — The beginning of a journey

*2022-04-29, version 5.9.5*

I got this app the same day I got my bike and it’s been a great help when it comes to learning new tricks, there is also a great verity of other things you can learn, I highly recommend if your into bikes, skateboards, snowboarding, ect.

### 5/5 — My review

*2022-03-22, version 5.9.5*

I’ve been riding bmx bike since I was younger and has always wanted to learn tricks and now I have finally found a simple and easy app to get to where I have always wanted to be at currently I have so many new things and can do more then I could with this app, Amazing app!

### 5/5 — Fun and Helpful app

*2022-02-28, version 5.9.5*

It helped me learn new tricks and get help by asking questions. I also got to answer other people’s questions and help them out. It’s fun and easy to use. I looked at other sports and now want to get further involved. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Best app ever

*2021-11-04, version 5.9.2*

It’s an amazing app, super helpful if you are still working on anything. I totally suggest this app for absolutely anyone from beginners to intermediate to professional. It’s super easy to use and get used to and again super helpful.

### 5/5 — Really good app but may I suggest:

*2021-08-26, version 5.9*

-I know ima get hate for this but run ads and make some money, you guys have a unique app but haven’t really capitalized on it. 
-Add more levels and update tricks
-Make becoming an instructor possible
-Add dms
-Add more personalization to profiles such as favorite spot, favorite song,  name color.
-Hire sole moderators cuz there a lot of bots and “interesting” posts. 

Besides that keep it up and welcome back.

### 5/5 — PLEASE ADD PARK ROLLERSKATING

*2021-06-27, version 5.8*

I checked out the app and for now I’m using it with inline listed as my sport. However, I’m an aggressive park roller skater and have been looking for something like this app for ages. Not many apps cater to this niche as it is pretty new, but the community is super passionate and would definitely adopt it (as we currently have few interactive resources like this). I’d love to see it added as an option so I could track my progress and see tricks more accurate to rollerskating rather than inline tricks. My review stands though, as I think the app has a really clean UI and addresses well a previously unmet need for the action sport demo. I left this as a review because there is no other listed method for contacting the developers, so I hope this is seen!

### 5/5 — Got your Email

*2021-02-02, version 5.8*

Hi Tolya!!! I got your email you sent. There is one thing I want to say about this app. I wish the app had tutorials on new skateboarding tricks. I want to learn the Ollie. I had to install another app. If there is a tutorial, please tell me where it is.

### 5/5 — Can’t view support videos.

*2021-01-29, version 5.8*

This app is great but I have one problem. Whenever I try to view skate support videos the screen turns all black and I can’t see the video. It would be great if you would fix it. 5/5 App🤙

### 5/5 — Best “”””ing app ever

*2021-01-18, version 5.8*

This app has perfect video and written guides for skating and every other sport you can think of. Plus if there is a problem the tutorial didn’t address, all you have to do is ask and hella people will see it and someone will respond 95% of the time
