The Official Stept Productions' "S.K.A.T.E On Snow" Thread

danderson. · 2011-11-30 18:04:31

If you have not heard, Stept is creating a game exactly like S.K.A.T.E, but on snow and with skiers rather than skaters. I am creating this thread to follow the competition and to see who makes it to finals, etc. If you have not seen it, here is the first episode featuring Owens and Warnick: http://steptproductions.com/2011/11/29/s-k-a-t-e-on-snow-warnick-vs-owens/comment-page-1/#comment-2592 Check it out!

I love the concept, just another way stept is mixing it up in the ski world.

Although most of the stept guys ski mainly rails, I am hoping that in later episodes when other skiers outside of stept are introduced that jumps will come into play also.

its a good start, like Ben said in the thread i linked at least skiers are stealing from skateboarding instead of snowboarding. they should do it all on one feature, makes more sense IMO. they need a more defined set of rules (see battle at the berrics). i dont think tricks on the ground after a feature should be included (ie shuffles). its a good start though.

I agree with the shuffles, I also find that the nollies are very tough to judge as well.

Fuck! I was really hoping that I didn't repost. I figured if it had been posted, it would've been on the first page, but I figured wrong haha. I was thinking this would be like the "official" thread to follow the whole thing though. Hopefully this thread works! It's definitely a sick concept!

i love the idea of S.K.A.T.E, but i do think the rules could be changed up a little bit.

In the rules of the game you have to call your shuffles, so scrubby landings are a no go (i.e. if you call blind 4 off and land at 3 and push it though to 4 it doesn't count, you have to land with skis downhill unless you call otherwise).

Also, Mount Snow did a similar concept all last season, but against their park crew:

R.I.D.E. With a Ranger #11 from carinthia parks on Vimeo.

Although, since most of their park crew are snowboarders, there were only 2 ski episodes.

First one was a good start, but it needs better rules, like BATB. Like I said in the other thread, glad to see skiing moving up one level in the copying world so they are on par with snowboarding. Now skiing will be a few less years behind.

The skier ones are garbage. Park crew is not very skilled haha. The snowboarding one with the double rail was cool though.

agreed to both points. it might hamper creativity a little bit, but i'd almost rather see them do just straight up rail tricks so it's easier to judge
