Play Skitchin (USA, Europe) Online

Skitchin' came out in 1994 for the Sega Genesis, developed and published by Electronic Arts. It was part of that wave of extreme sports games that tried to capture the edgy, aggressive energy of the mid-90s, standing alongside titles like Road Rash but with a focus on inline skating instead of motorcycles.

You control a skater who grabs onto cars to gain speed, racing through traffic-heavy city streets. The main goal is to win each race by any means necessary, which usually involves kicking other skaters into obstacles or oncoming vehicles. Key mechanics include timing your grabs to latch onto cars without falling, and using weapons like pipes or chains dropped by opponents to disable rivals. The game is fast and fairly difficult, with tight turns and instant wipeouts keeping you on edge. It feels chaotic and reckless, like barely maintaining control while everything tries to knock you down.
