Remember the good ol’ days when you could pop a kickflip to a darkside grind across a planter box? Yeah, me neither. The fine folks over at Illusion Labs (makers of mega-hits Labyrinth and iPint) have released an innovative skateboarding game called Touchgrind for your iPhone/iPod Touch (requires 2.0 software update). Just like in real skateboarding or fingerboarding, Touchgrind is a game of skill that takes 10 minutes to understand but weeks of lectures, boring meetings and family dinners to master. Learn the tricks and impress your buddies.

The innovative finger controls together with true physics simulation let you pull off tricks like ollies, shuvits, kickflips, heelflips, impossibles, 5-0, 50-50, crooks, smithgrinds, boardslides, tailslides, darkslides etc in endless combinations. Thanks to my friend Tino for the tip. Pick up this game. Your shins will thank you for it.

• True physics
• Innovative multi-touch controls
• 12 unlockable boards with different abilities
• Warm Up, Jam Session and Competition game modes
• Tutorial videos
• Stunning 3D graphics
• Realistic sound
