If the screenshots appearing on the box mean anything, then this game was trying to appeal to the Jet Grind crowd. I wanted this game as soon as I saw it, but it turned out a little different from what I expected. There's a skateboard to attach to the controller, and the controller is held sideways, but this doesn't really improve upon the experience. Some jumps and ravines are impossible (for me) to overcome. You have to get used to the timing and play in the controls and movement, starting far enough away, and ollieing early enough. Ollieing involves pushing down on the analog stick, but sometimes the controller thinks you're trying to pop-shove-it.
