“Do a kickflip.” Eric Koston used to walk around Los Angeles asking skaters to do a kickflip for a segment at The Berrics. It became a cultural moment: one simple trick → a global callout → a pure expression of skateboarding. Because skateboarding was never just about posting clips. It’s discovering new spots. It’s learning new tricks. It’s playing a game of S.K.A.T.E. It’s sharing your favorite video part. It’s being part of something bigger. And now all of that has a digital home. Do you know where your favorite video part was filmed? Do you know the story behind the Tre Flip at El Toro? Think you can ace a skate quiz? WILDIES brings all of it together in one place.

Skateable tells you whether your local spot is worth the trip, then tracks the session when you roll out. SKATEABILITY SCORE Every spot gets a live 0–100 score based on current weather, the last 48 hours of rain history, the spot's surface type, sun exposure, drainage quality and more. No guessing, just a number. PopSense Drop your phone in your pocket and let PopSense handle the rest. Automatic session detection, live stats from every sesh, and a training mode to help you progress. PLAN AHEAD Tap "Plan Session" to see a forecast skateability score for any time in the next 7 days. Useful when the weekend weather looks borderline. CREW Roll with your crew. Add skaters as friends, see when and where they're skating, and keep your spots in sync. TRIPS Plan a road trip with the crew. Pick the spots, pick the day, get a forecast for each spot, and roll out together. GAME OF S.K.A.T.E Settle it in the app. Trick for trick, letter for letter · a digital scorecard for the classic game. WIDGETS Pin the score to your home screen or lock screen. One glance and you know if it's on. EVERYWHERE YOU SKATE Companion apps for Apple Watch, Apple TV and CarPlay mean the score follows you wherever you go. COMMUNITY SESSIONS Skaters log whether a spot was dry or wet when they skated it. Recent reports feed into the score so it reflects ground truth, not just weather data. SPOT ATTRIBUTES Each spot tracks what matters: surface type (modern smooth, old concrete, rough asphalt, timber, steel, indoor), sun exposure, drainage quality, and hazard warnings like pebble risk or snake warnings. LOCATIONS & MAP Save your local spots. Filter by distance, search by name, and view them on a map with the Nearby tab. Swipe a row to flag bad data or remove a spot. SHARE CONDITIONS Tap the share icon on any spot to generate a conditions card you can send to your crew. COMMUNITY SAFETY Report any inappropriate content, block users and manage a blocked list in Settings. We review and act on every report within 24 hours. Terms of Use: https://skateable.io/docs/terms
