Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

This sequel starts off with your release from jail into a city that has changed massively during your five years inside. The evil Mongocorp has locked down the rails and concrete arenas to prevent gnarly dudes from having their fun.

In order to rebuild your free-skating career, you have to beat the corporate security guards and skate locked-down terrain to earn cash and kudos. Frustratingly, in order to “own” your spots, you have to work hard to perform enough tricks to accrue the points required. Still, there’s plenty to keep armchair boarders occupied in this stylish title.
