Seems dope looking forward to mountain biking. Theres a new skiing feature that is going to allow for more realist skiing which is gonna be super nice. The parks in the trailer look pretty arcadey in my opinion.

It'd be cool if they added more actual ski brands and stuff and like more of a shredsauce vibe. If whoever's making parks and designing them should look at shredsauce parks or actual parks. I think some of the parks in the japan area are jank and not flowy. And new axis.

A park builder would change the game. Also I did spot harlaut apparel at 0:16 and 1:15, so hopefully they'll have added some other brands

Also check out the dope new trick at 0:54. finally added screamins

This is the new freestyle system that they're using. I think they said they will add bios, mistys, and flatspins

Would be cool to see them add underflips as well

This was the only one in the trailer but I would think they'd add other hoodies or even the pants

Shredding backcountry pow in steep is great, I hope this is similar

Need a create a feature option like skate 3. Was the one thing missing from steep. If I could build a backcountry booter I would probably never stop playing this

That'd be so sick.
It would be cool too if they added a better replay system like Skater XL with the keyframes options

having pov downhill mtb is a sick concept, but the physics looks a little wack and way too arcade-ish

Like everyone was saying a park builder would be awesome but it doesn’t seem like something they would do. I also hope they make the skiing tricks a little harder to pull. I didn’t like in steep how you could pull a cork 10 off the tinyest roller, just a tad more realism would be sick

don't buy the game if you don't plan to do mountain biking. The skiing pretty much sucks. Super arcady. You can get on rails much easier which is nice

Riders republic is a jerry game, way too easy for skiing and no trick selection

descenders is way better for mountain biking anyways, the bikes actually feel like they have some weight to them. Also getting steep + descenders is cheaper than getting rr not to mention how much better they are.
