Smap, Skate Spots and Learn

I love this app been using it since it first came out and everything they’ve done with it is almost everything I want and need, being able to learn with a guided path, challenges, game of skate with your distant skater friends, away to track progress. But I feel what would make it literally perfect is a trick list. It shows each level of trick, shows how to do each trick in different stance.

I’ve always wanted to have an app that shows skate spots all around me because searching for them can be a little tedious, so thanks for making smaps! I understand that this app is fairly new so nobody has posted any skate spots, I’m a little afraid people are reluctant to since they don’t want lots of skaters going to their favorite spots. Hopefully more people download this app and add spots. A bug I found was that whenever you click on an image of a skatepark, there’s no way of going back, once you click on the image you have to exit the app and open it again to get back to the main map. Another bug is that when you click on a skatepark on the map it shows this white rectangle where I think a picture is supposed to be, but it’s just white. I’d also be a lot better if there were multiple pictures of the skatepark because it only shows one birds eye view image for the skateparks.

I’m giving this at five stars because it literally has what seems to be every skate park and is a great resource. However, the app is still new, buggy, and is only as good as the amount of users commenting and uploading photos. With time and some bug fixes this could really be a great app.
