One more thing in case people aren't aware: if you press BOTH triggers while in a grind you can then pop into a completely different grind on the same rail. Great video! I definitely learned some things I'm eager to try out
this is the video i NEEDED, good job explaining everything, after playing the game for about a week now i still have trouble with noseblunts and blunts but that was cus i was only using one stick to press... now i know!
Yes, this helped me so much! But I definitely agree. I'm trying to figure out how to do the switch stance. Except it's completely different from Session. So I don't fully get it.
Varial flips are easy you do a kickflip and move the analog stick up to the right corner in goofy for regular it would be up to the left. Also hardflips in goofy is the same thing but with the analog stick going up the left corner
Yes! Thank you for letting us know about the sticks being used for smooth pop outs, I didn’t know you could use them to one foot catch either! You’ve opened a whole new world of opportunity here haha
Sugar cane is on your other truck , that was a grapefruit grind. Also your suskis and salads are mixed up. Super informative though. Gonna have to start doing low pop into grinds, didn’t realize how much more real it looked
Really good tutorial. After almost 190h of playing this game I have already gotten the hang of everything but this tutorial will really help new players.
Great video! I've been using a different approach for crooks/overcooks; up on the front foot to lock in and left/right on the back foot. Another way to do nose and tail slides is to adopt the powerslide/shifty movement like t boardslides but being further from the ledge, this creates a pretty smooth lockin for super fast slides.
I'm stuck at work right now, but I'll put these tips to work tonight. Very informative and great vid, can't wait to see your tips on flip tricks ( I wanna learn impossibles and forward flips!) I had known but forgot upon playing the game that you could click the sticks to pop out, so that is something I'll use for sure. Again, great vid, on you Ghost of Tsushima stuff as well!
You can't do impossibles in this game as far as I know. Forward flips are possible I think, just do like a kickflip but hold the front flip diagonally forward and left instead of straight left
What he showed for a sugarcane wasn't a sugarcane. A sugarcane is the trick Chris Miller used to do. Backside 270 to fakie front smith. Matt Berger does em down rails. Frontside 270 to fakie back smith is a frontside sugarcane. Helpful video other than that.
Thank you so much. I’ve been figuring the mechanics of the game out by myself, but couldn’t get the nose blunts done. And I didn’t now you the use of pressing the analogue buttons.
Quick tip for double grinds or jumping out of grinds I came looking for more tips on grinds but saw that you left out jumping from grinds to grinds. Found out yesterday that you could do this by using the bumpers before jumping, just press the bumper before jumping and you'll go to each side, left bumper to jump left or right bumper to jump right out of the grind, and press BOTH of them right before jumping and you'll go foward. Keep in mind that you have to PRESS them right before jumping out of the grind, not hold, PRESS them right before jumping out of the grind.
Just a little tip, EVEN IF you use the triggers to start your boardslide/lipslide, you can still shifty/revert out of it at the end of the grind which looks WAY better. So, entry with the triggers, exit with the shifty
I am so pleased that you changed the color of the shoes to match the controller stick colors...like that's pretty smart but simple...I feel like not enough people are noticing that.
Same here, I actually liked session a lot more than Skater XL at first but now that Skater XL has a real release and session... not sure what's going on with session. One thing though, Skater XL NEEDS that Session feature where you can place obstacles wherever you want them. That was honestly half the fun of that game
This has been helpful! I'd love to see a vid on flip tricks. I got used to [equally good game] Session's controls and consistent 3shuvs and what not give me issues in SkaterXL.
It seems pretty similar to Session to me? Maybe session is a bit more on rails if you know what I mean, the results are more clear when you do the inputs. With a 3 shuv just push one side with your back foot, make sure you have enough space and HOLD that back foot to the side until the board has made a full 360 rotation, then release to catch, otherwise you'll just do normal shuvs
@@PlaySA ahhh maybe that's the ticket, holding until it's a 3shuv. I can get them just not consistently. Thought it was just a harder flick. I didn't know if I should start with the back foot (right stick [reg]) down at 6'oclock or start it at 3'oclock, you know? Thanks for the info though!
Really good vid! thanks for the tips. I didn't know there was an input for 5050's I always just tried to land straight on top and hopefully lock in haha.
Awesome video! Very informative, and helpful. Would love to see a flip tricks tutorial. Especially for the varial flips. Seems like its 1 and 100 times you'll do 1 and the rest are tre flips.
Thanks for this! Best video i watch on this game! Started on session and JUST got skater xl! I like skater xl more already(no hate to session just my preference!) theres so many small things better in this game that i didnt know that this helped with✌🏻
this video is so clutch! I love this game I can spend hours doing a bunch of varitations on just one spot. Im not any good but I look forward to getting better. Could you please do one for grabs?
Great tricks you did in the beginning, I can tell you’re a skater haha (I already knew that though because I saw your old skate footy and we talked for a bit about skating, I miss skateboarding, I feel too old to do it now at 30, I feel embarrassed even though skateboarding was my LIFE for sooooo many years. Loved the kickflip backflip 270 out! I can’t wait to do a trey flip front tail to fakie, haha and a trey flip noseblunt (like Eric Koston did on a handrail at the end of yeah right! I think Chris cole did it on a gold rail in some zero video as well, it’s a great trick (I’m sure by now many other skaters have done trey flip noseblunts on big handrails that I’m not aware of) great video! Btw, you have suski and salads mixed up but that’s ok, very understandable mistake) salad is like a feeble with the front truck raised where as a suski is like a smith with the front truck raised
I read that you feel to old and embarrassed. Don't worry about what people think of you do it stop worrying how people perceive you for skating no matter what age
KINGxTERRY thanks brother. I should go skate, when I was younger I always thought the older skaters at the park were badass lol some of them were pretty gnarly. When I was younger a lot of the older guys were from a different era, they were usually crazy bowl skaters that would go Mach 10 zipping around they were pretty nuts lol
Nice vid. Thanks. Would be nice to explain about poping out with the RS or LS because they are so useful to make 270s out much more realistic. Specially for 270 reverts out.
Really good! This help me a lot. I sub for future tips. Need some help about: Pop out straight in a grind. Like.."five-o to flip to five-o" in the same ledge. And also reverts in manuals. Always pop a trick..I cant get theese two things. Great content keep it Up! 💯🔥
Use the bumpers. Press the left bumper right before jumping out and you'll go left, press the right bumper before and you'll go right, press both of them and you'll jump straigh foward and maybe continue the grind. I just found this out yesterday by myself trying to do 180s, felt great and came looking for more tips.
Nice work! Couldn’t help but seeing how loose the trucks look wobbling in the air like that in slow motion haha. Thinking about getting the game, are there options to alter truck tightness and wheel hardness etc?
Is there a better way to pop out of a grind to the left or right? Clicking the sticks just makes you magically pop out of the grind but I can't figure out for the life of me how to actually ollie out to the left or right.
willys are my favourite trick to do on a ladge but ingame any more tips with the swtching stuff like 5 0 to switch crook am struggling to make em look decnent
That should be possible. First get on the nose slide, then push BOTH triggers at the same time, then instantly launch the shuv/180, then input for the nose or tail. That will be really difficult but not impossible, find a long rail to practice on
Great vid but you got suskis and salads reversed brotha. Also, sugarcanes are basically an alley oop hurricane grind, not what you have in the vid. There may be a nickname for what you put as sugarcanes, Cole grind, etc. but also just 180 switch feeble or something basic like that.
yo homie! i could tell you skated irl from this video, but i checked the other vid with your old footage and shocked at how good you are!(pupecki bigspin out!) do you have any tips on how to air foot with both feet? ie for the purpose of doing hippy/kilty mcbagpipe ollies? i can do it by accident to a frustrating degree, but cant seem to figure out how to on purpose
Pro tip, don't press the sticks at all for 50-50 grinds. I did them the way shown in this video for my first 100 hrs or so in the beta and always had trouble with them. Just line your board up and Ollie up onto the rail

So dope that you skate bro!! I’m so hype for this game. Do you like Skater XL or session better?
Yes100 % very cool game 👌
One more thing in case people aren't aware: if you press BOTH triggers while in a grind you can then pop into a completely different grind on the same rail. Great video! I definitely learned some things I'm eager to try out
I feel like I learned real nose slides the exact same way in life, this game is awesome I can’t wait for updates
this is the video i NEEDED, good job explaining everything, after playing the game for about a week now i still have trouble with noseblunts and blunts but that was cus i was only using one stick to press... now i know!
I will never do any of this, but I felt informed and entertained, thank you.
Dude just wait... I bet this dude has hours into this game. I cant wait to get all of this down!
Why isn t That hard
I figured out every grind by myself in like 2 days lol, you got it bruh
Any advice for doing blunt slides? Slowly getting the tricks...
Thank you soo much, please make this with flip tricks(especially varial flips), quarter pipes(mini ramp) and grabs
Yes, this helped me so much! But I definitely agree. I'm trying to figure out how to do the switch stance. Except it's completely different from Session. So I don't fully get it.
Alex Mullis hey bro with switch, just play NOLLIE when you’re riding switch
Varial flips are easy you do a kickflip and move the analog stick up to the right corner in goofy for regular it would be up to the left. Also hardflips in goofy is the same thing but with the analog stick going up the left corner
Why would you want to do a varial flip? Its an ugly truck.
Thank you!!! Exact vid I was looking for. I love how you explain everything so clearly and at a chill pace. 100% helped me out.
Yes! Thank you for letting us know about the sticks being used for smooth pop outs, I didn’t know you could use them to one foot catch either! You’ve opened a whole new world of opportunity here haha
this vid helped me out soo much thnx bro! im finally gettin the hang of things a little easier now. maybe some vids on flip tricks, gaps and such!?
I've been struggling with the crooks and turning out of grinds smoothly. Thanks for this my Friend.
Sugar cane is on your other truck , that was a grapefruit grind. Also your suskis and salads are mixed up. Super informative though. Gonna have to start doing low pop into grinds, didn’t realize how much more real it looked
Really good tutorial. After almost 190h of playing this game I have already gotten the hang of everything but this tutorial will really help new players.
I just bought this game the other day for $20 and couldnt do much of anything yet this is a big help
Great video Alex. I would love to see you make a few more Skater XL videos.
Thanks!
That was probably the best explanation I’ve watched so far and help me a ton! Well done👏
Thanks man very helpful video
Great video!

Dude thanks. Been trying feebs and thought for SURE just crook but land on back truck. Great vid. Simple, but in depth. Imma crack a budheavy for you

These grinds look so realistic

Thank you for uploading this in greater than 1080p.

The hardest part is getting adjacent with the rail

Omg thank you so much, I was holding them and not pressing them and I couldn’t understand why my skater wasn’t jumping into the side I wanted.
I just tried double bumpers grind transition, sooo fun thanks again for the tips, should be in the video tho
And if you can tell me how to late flip / late shuv that be so cool
@@titouande800 I think late flips aren't in the game yet, you can do them on PC with mods, same with impossibles
Triggers. Not bumpers.
Just a little tip, EVEN IF you use the triggers to start your boardslide/lipslide, you can still shifty/revert out of it at the end of the grind which looks WAY better. So, entry with the triggers, exit with the shifty
Thanks so much fam! Big ups on the help, definitely learned some super helpful mechanics I didnt know were even in the game, nice!
Solid Tutorial my man!
Love the video! The lack of an in-game grind tutorial is...odd.
Thanks a bunch!!
Very well done and professional 👍
Ty!
I am so pleased that you changed the color of the shoes to match the controller stick colors...like that's pretty smart but simple...I feel like not enough people are noticing that.
It's actually a built in mechanic when you have the controller promps enabled.
@@BoomstickGaming ahhhh!!!! That is very useful!
Awesome guide please do more tutorial videos like this. Maybe on basic flip tricks?
Would love to see this series continue for Skater XL! This was fantastic and helped me quite a bit coming from hundreds of hours on Session.
Same here, I actually liked session a lot more than Skater XL at first but now that Skater XL has a real release and session... not sure what's going on with session. One thing though, Skater XL NEEDS that Session feature where you can place obstacles wherever you want them. That was honestly half the fun of that game
ive never seen a skate game use suski grinds lol..what a legend that guy is but most wont know him nowadays.

I don't know why, but I love that powerslide : 7:44
Video was mint. Thanks for making this
Just started playing the game on console and this helped greatly thanks man?!
Man!!*
thanks homie
Such a helpful and convenient video

Very helpful information! Thanks!
Awesome!!! Give us more!!!!
You didn't mention the losi grind and ive basically mastered it, it's almost the exact same thing as a Willy grind
old vid i know but for feebles/smith you want to use the backfoot to press forward so you can ollie with that same stick out and do easier shuvs.
Thanks I had to learn everything on my own but your video just taught me how to grind shift so I thank you for that 🛹💯🤝
Great video I learned a lot from it. You did get make a minor mistake by mixing up salad grinds with suski grinds.
Really good! This help me a lot. I sub for future tips. Need some help about:

what a tutorial 🔥
Nice! Your good man! Make a small little edit of your skating on skater xl and post it on here! Again. Great content!
thank you for the tips! would you be able to do a tutorial on using the replay mode in the game?
Would be cool
Good video 👍! As a fellow TH-camr, I am on the lookout for creative ideas! Good Job!
Very good video bro :D
Yo thank you! Super helpful
Nice vid! Didnt know about stick pop outs. Thx!
Stick pop outs are crucial on the miniramp too
I play on both pc and console, I still look for videos like this
Hey! How I do a tail to nose slide??
I prefer to make nose and tail slides only with the sticks, you can do it like the boardslides with the sticks or with lt or rt
It’s easier like that but definitely doesn’t look as good
very helpfull thanks!
Needed to watch this vid so confused with xl after playing session
Ur a life saver
Damn, you are good.
thank you so much! loved the video.
This is going to help alot.thank you.
those grind shifting were insanse
Thanks a lot!!! Can you make a tutorial on flip tricks?
Really easy just do the tutorial
Nice work! Couldn’t help but seeing how loose the trucks look wobbling in the air like that in slow motion haha. Thinking about getting the game, are there options to alter truck tightness and wheel hardness etc?
I’m sitting here debating on buying it
No you can not.
Josh Rosado crazy foo just buy it! It’s definitely the $39
great vid! helped a ton!

Thanks 🤙
Can anyone help with changing your shoes back to red and blue? The option isn't there on console now I changed to some different kicks.
Thank you for the tutorial. Better than the game! Subbed btw...
Vtasty, luv it.
Enjoyed the video! Is there a way to grind trick grind? For instance Crooked grind nollie flip Crookgrind on same ledge?
Willy grinds have always looked awful to me haha sick video tho!
yea it just means "you fucked up on your trick"
Shad0wmoses Lmaoo honestly!
That's usually how they happen in Skater XL too, you pop a bit too early and land on that willy.... always disappointing
Good tutorial 👍
Is there any way to do a nose slide 180 tail slide (or other way around) or a tail/nose slide shuvit to tail/nose slide?
That should be possible. First get on the nose slide, then push BOTH triggers at the same time, then instantly launch the shuv/180, then input for the nose or tail. That will be really difficult but not impossible, find a long rail to practice on
Thank you so much i could never get any grind i wanted

u mixed up salad and suski, but other than that, this helped a lot!
edit: you also forgot losi grinds..
yo homie! i could tell you skated irl from this video, but i checked the other vid with your old footage and shocked at how good you are!(pupecki bigspin out!)
do you have any tips on how to air foot with both feet? ie for the purpose of doing hippy/kilty mcbagpipe ollies?
i can do it by accident to a frustrating degree, but cant seem to figure out how to on purpose
You mean in the game? I don't think that's possible. You can't really separate from your board that much due to the programming
Easy day had 2 clips that was a nose slide to tailslide that looked steezy. Please! Help us with this 🙏
Pro tip, don't press the sticks at all for 50-50 grinds. I did them the way shown in this video for my first 100 hrs or so in the beta and always had trouble with them. Just line your board up and Ollie up onto the rail
I just move my thumbs about and hope for the best
Does anyone know when this game is coming out on switch? Was it delayed or something?
It’s coming to switch later its only on console and PC rn
They aren't planning on it coming to switch
@@ministerofsorrow6074 they changed their minds? I remember seeing a few trailers on the official Nintendo TH-cam channel.
How about ride on grinds? Easy on Session but can’t figure it out for the life of me on Skater XL
Epic thank you!!!
How do you get the blue and red shoes?
