A pretty original budget title vaguely reminiscent of Joust where, instead of riding a bird, you speed around on a sort of anti-gravity skateboard, which is also your weapon! You must clear each different screen from the nasties within a given time, avoiding any contact with them. It's a simple concept but very well done: the game is fast, with clear and nice graphics and sound. Good for those who look for a slick and somewhat unique arcade game.

One thing that is certain is the Closs brothers were firmly into skateboarding. Because while Tim Closs wrote Skateboard Kidz, brother James Closs went on to write Skateboard Joust a year later, and neither of them are impressive. Now this is a far better game than Skateboard Kidz but I found controlling my skater to be frustrating.
