Electronic Arts has announced that their new Skate It game for iPhone & iPod Touch will be the greatest skating experience available for download. EA states that their game will be "[the] most realistic skate experience for iPhone & iPod touch is now in your hands."

I've seen one skating app before and it was decent, but this one sounds pretty promising. The game will be available for the Apple App Store May 2010. Here is a fact sheet EA has provided:
