The Simpsons Skateboarding
In a world where Springfield's favourite residents have taken to the halfpipe, chaos ensues as Bart, Lisa and Maggie attempt to perfect their skateboarding skills. With an arsenal of tricks at their disposal, they must navigate the treacherous terrain of the town's abandoned pool, all while avoiding the prying eyes of Principal Skinner.
As you control your favourite Simpsons character, you'll need to master a range of skills, from basic balancing acts to more complex jumps and grinds. With each trick successfully landed, you'll earn cash and unlock new items for your character to wear or use on the board. But beware - a single mistake could leave you wiping out in spectacular fashion.

Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
This is an arcade-style extreme sports game where players compete in a skateboarding tournament across various iconic Springfield locations. Players perform tricks and navigate challenging environments to win the grand prize.
Story
INTRODUCTION
The Annual Skate Tour is coming to Springfield! Practice your kicks and your grabs, because you're going to be competing for some big bucks. We're talking literally dozens of dollars here!
The Annual Skate Tour is open to locals only, so that means only you and your fellow Springfieldians can enter. Everybody in town is going to have their eyes on that $99 Grand Prize, including, naturally, the Simpsons. Homer, Marge, Lisa, and of course Bart are going to be hitting the half pipe hard to show the town just what they're capable of when money's at stake.
So grab your skateboard, hit the course, and get ready for the Annual Skate Tour championship!
BURNS' MANOR
The intimidating estate of C. Montgomery Burns, Springfield's nefarious billionaire, can be a skateboarder's dream park or a complete nightmare. With a huge hedge maze, priceless statues, and a dark, scary dungeon, there are plenty of opportunities for doing tricks, but that might be tough with the hounds on your tail.
CONSTRUCTION SITE
Look out East St. Louis—Springfield is a town on the move! New businesses are clamoring to grab a piece of Springfield's discretionary dollar pie, and new businesses means construction sites, and construction sites are a boarder's paradise.
Half pipes, full pipes, planks, ditches, cranes, and more. Reap the fringe benefits of Springfield's economic boom.
SIR PUTT-A-LOT'S
The scene of the legendary minigolf showdown between Bart Simpson and Todd Flanders plays host to a whole new sport. Skate over a shark, through a castle, around a dinosaur, and of course past a windmill—and you thought playing golf on one of these courses was fun!
KRUSTYLU STUDIOS
This is where the magic happens. That special Krusty-Brand magic. The fabled studios where the Krusty the Clown show comes to life are the perfect venue for you to put on your act of high-flying, death-defying skateboarding.
Try to pull off a couple of tricks in front of the cameras. You could be famous!
SPRINGFIELD MALL
With two levels of such fantastic shops as Gum For Less and Ned Flanders' own The Leftorium, the Springfield Mall is one of the most popular places in town. With all those wide pedestrian aisles of nice, smooth linoleum, it also makes for one heck of a skate park.
Throw in the roof level and you've got quite a forum for practicing your advanced moves. As Homer says, "Food, fun, and fashion, the mall has it all."
ITCHY + SCRATCHY LAND
Welcome to the Violentest Place On Earth! From the whimsical Torture Land to the charming Searing Gas Pain Land, this magical theme park is fun for kids of all ages.
Add in a few ramps and a corkscrew or two, and you've got skateboarding fun for the whole family.
POWER PLANT
While skateboarding around barrels of radioactive waste might not be everybody's idea of a good time, there's no denying that the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant makes a great venue for the Annual Skate Tour.
Launch off one of the towers, skate the pipes deep within the plant, do whatever you want—Mr. Burns can't stop you! Although you might want to avoid the puddles of green, glowing ooze.
SPRINGFIELD GORGE
This is it: The ultimate test of your skateboarding abilities. Many people have tried to skateboard Springfield Gorge. Few have lived to tell the tale.
The terrain is unforgiving, and you'll need to use every trick you've learned so far to pull off a successful run. With rocky trails, boulders, raging rivers, and more, you're a long way from Springfield Elementary.

6. Follow on-screen instructions and refer to this manual for information on using the software.
SETTING UP THE GAME
Before you can get all fancy-pants with your game mode selection, you have to take care of a couple things first.
To set up a single player game:
1. Select NEW GAME or LOAD GAME from the Main menu.
2. Select SKATE THE TOUR from the Game Type pop-up. The Character Select screen appears.
3. Press the D-button to highlight an unlocked character, then press the button to select. The character skates down the ramp.
4. Press the button again to confirm your character. If you have any unlocked boards, the Board Select window appears.
5. Press the D-button to highlight an unlocked board, then press the button to select. The Level Select window appears.
6. Press the D-button to highlight an unlocked level, then press the button to select. The Tour menu appears.
PLAYING THE GAME
Now don't get nervous. Just because the entire town of Springfield is watching your every move doesn't mean you're going to choke. Just stay calm. STAY CALM! Remember your moves and you'll be fine. Or, you might land flat on your face and be utterly humiliated. You never know.
Following a Skillz School, Skatefest, or Timed Trick Contest game, the What Next? screen appears. From here you can retry the current game, change levels, enter the Shop, and more.

IN THE ZONE
Pull off a rapid series of cool tricks to add to your In The Zone meter. Once the meter is full, all of your attributes are temporarily boosted—sort of like Bart on an all-syrup Squishee rush—and you can pull off ultra cool In The Zone Grabs and Inverts. If you biff, either while you're building up the meter or while you're In The Zone, the meter resets to zero.
The In The Zone meter only appears in Skillz School when necessary for the current trick.
PAUSE MENU
If somebody tried to tell you how to ride your board, would you listen? Heck no! So why would you let somebody tell you which course to ride, or which music to listen to? From the Pause menu, you can set up the game the way you like to, not the way The Man tells you to!
The following is the Pause menu for Skatefest and Timed Trick Contest modes.
•
Paused
•
Resume: Continue your current game
•
Set Start: Restart at Start Point
•
Restart: Show the objectives for the level
•
Show Objectives: Check out the commands for all tricks
•
Trick List: Select a new level for your current game
•
Shop: Spend you hard-earned cash to boost your attributes
•
Mode/Level Select: Access the Options window
•
Options: Return to the title screen
•
Accept Select
The Skillz School Pause menu differs from the above Pause menu in two regards: There is an additional BEGINNER TIPS option in Skillz School, but there is no SET START option.
Selecting RESTART from the Pause menu resets your score to zero.
SET START POINT
When you see one of these markers on the ground in Skatefest mode, you can choose this spot as your new starting point for the level. Afterwards, when you select RESTART in the Pause menu, you will restart at this point.
To choose a Start Point marker as your new start point, skate onto it and select SET START from the Pause menu.
OPTIONS
The Simpsons™ Skateboarding has more options than a Kwik-E-Mart candy rack. Come to the Options screen and see for yourself.
