The First time and only the first time you load up the game after this update y’all be introduced to the difficulty selection wizard. Before you get too excited, this isn’t a real wizard like the kid in that book. It’s the new difficulty wizard for your settings.

EXPERIMENTAL FEATURES
Game Of Skate
You and a homie can sit back and battle it out on the sofa like the old days, with the Games Of Skate, this is still an experimental feature, which will hopefully show y’all which direction we want to go with the Game Of Skate feature.
Trick names
Under the Experimental section, you’ll be able to turn on The Trick Display feature. You will now be able to see the names of the tricks you do you on screen.
GAMEPLAY SETTINGS
Grind Input mode
Full Release Mode; The input must be released after popping a trick and then re-applied in order to apply weight to the desired foot/ feet for all types of grinds
Partial Release Mode; The input must be released after popping a trick and then re-applied in order to apply weight to the desired foot/feet. Only for grinds using one foot (IE: Nose grinds, Five-0, etc)
No release Mode; The input does not have to be released after popping a trick. For the weight to be applied to the desired foot/feet for all types of grinds.
Pop Height Mode
Global; Pop heights for Lo/Mid/High tricks remain the same regardless of stance/ foot position.
Unique; Pop heights for Lo/Mid/High tricks vary depending on your stance/ foot position. IE, when skating Switch, pop heights will be lower.
Auto Grind Mode
When auto grind is turned on, you (the skater) will automatically try to grind or slide without having to enter any input at all, like AT ALL when landing on a ledge or rail!
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
We have now made the map like a banana split and have split it into two sections, NYC and The Underground parking lot. By doing this, it helps overall performance, optimization process and GPU usage. To access the new underground parking lot, locate one of the entrances to the parking lot and hold A (There's two at the moment)
New Custom Camera Option
You can now customize the camera so it fits your personal needs and play style.
New Object Dropped Objects
We’ve added some new toys for you guys to play within the object dropper;
- Picnic tables
- Grind Box
- Jersey Barrier
- Old Rusty Barrels
- Pyramid
- Curved Ramps
New Historical Challenges
15 new Brooklyn Banks Historical challenges have now been added from The Back to the Banks 2006-2009 contests. So dust off that history book on your shelf, study up and hit the Banks!
Art
Lighting has been updated and optimized
A massive optimization pass has also been done in NYC, you should definitely notice fps improvement on that end!
All this adds up to a sexier looking Session with less GPU usage without compromising graphics. So it still looks fantastic.
