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

SkateLog is your skateboarding session journal. Track every skate session, log the combos you land, and watch your progress build over time. LOG YOUR SESSIONS Start a session at your spot, then record what you skate — combo by combo, trick by trick. Mark your makes and your tries so you know exactly how a session went. Add notes, set the duration, and finish when you're done. BUILD COMBOS Chain skateboard tricks into combos with stance, spin direction, and degrees of rotation. Search the trick library and stack steps into the lines you're actually working on. Count makes vs tries on every combo to see what's dialed and what still needs work. SEE YOUR PROGRESS Your dashboard pulls it all together: total stats, a 12-week makes chart, your recent sessions, and a breakdown of your trick library. No guessing whether you're improving — the numbers show it. ROLL WITH YOUR CREW Add friends by handle or scan their QR code, and skate together. When someone in your crew starts a session, you get a notification — with the spot, so you can roll up and join. See who's online and who's skating right now, and tag the crew you skated with in every session. FIND SPOTS Browse skate spots on the map or drop your own. Filter your sessions by spot to see where you put in the work. BUILT FOR SKATERS A clean, fast skateboarding tracker made for the session — not for scrolling. Free account, syncs with your data at skatelog.io. Whether you skate street, park, or flat ground, SkateLog keeps the record. Get out there and skate — and bring the crew.
