Grind Exits

Choose which side you pop out of a grind using LT or RT.

In skate, your grind exit direction and spin are both tied to your left stick input.

This mod lets you control your grind exit direction independently of your spin. It works alongside the existing controls rather than replacing them.

How to use it

1. Start a grind.
2. Hold LT to exit left or RT to exit right.
3. Pop out with any trick.

Settings

• Input mode: Left / Right (default) uses your direction of travel. Toe / Heel uses your skater's toe and heel sides instead, which requires your stance to be set.
• Pop-out strength: Controls how far you pop to the side. Default is 50%. Lower it for rails near walls, or set it to 100% for the game's full exit distance.
• Grab guard: Prevents the held trigger from triggering a grab. Release it and press it again in the air if you want to grab.
• Lean guard: Prevents the game's normal lean exit from pulling your board towards the rail while spinning.

Controller Compatibility

This mod supports most XInput (Xbox) and PlayStation style controllers.

Some controllers, particularly generic ones, may have issues with LT/RT inputs not being detected. If your controller supports XInput mode, switching to it may fix the issue.

I'm working on adding LT/RT calibration to improve compatibility with more controllers.
