The middle ground between Tony Hawk Pro Skater and Thrasher: Skate and Destroy. The gameplay is good, but everything is generic, the stages, objectives and layout. The Plus is unlocking videos showing the real life skaters abilities.

In my journey to find cool skateboarding/extreme sports games, I found this somewhat obscure 2000 PS1 game called Grind Session. Downloaded it onto my PSP without much thinking and, to my surprise, it's great!

It's a lot like THPS1, but better in my opinion. It has more of a focus on finding lines, and the controls and a bit more sim like, making it harder to hit those lines. There's a good challenge here and I genuinely think anyone who is a fan of those early THPS games will get a kick out of this.
