A speedometer dial in a corner of the screen while you skate. The needle and a blue arc show how fast you're going, the number sits big in the middle, and a white notch on the rim marks your top speed.
What it shows
- Your speed, in mph or km/h. It's your full speed, down a hill included, not just across the ground.
- A scale that fits. Pushing round a park reads on 0–25 mph (0–40 km/h). Bomb a hill and the scale steps up to 40, 60, 80 and on as you need it. It steps back down once you've stayed slower for 4 seconds, so a quick check before a gap doesn't make it jump around.
- Top speed. Your fastest since the map loaded, as a number under the dial and a notch on the rim. It starts again on every map, or when you reset it.
The dial hides in menus, on loading screens and while you teleport.

What you need
A ReSkate version with plugins: you'll see a PLUGINS section in the menu. If there isn't one, update ReSkate.
It's a sandboxed ReSkate plugin (the plugin folder, no DLL). It reads your skater's speed, draws on the screen, adds its page to the menu and a console command, and saves its settings, and nothing else.
Install
Install with the mod manager. To install by hand, extract the zip into its own folder inside Skate\Mods.
Install Speedometer
You need ReSkate and your own copy of skate. on Steam.
- Open
ReSkateLauncher.exeand go to MODS. - Search for Speedometer and click install. The launcher also installs anything it depends on.
- Press PLAY. In game, the MODS tab of the ReSkate menu (Insert) turns it on and off.
Or install it by hand: download the .zip and drop it on the launcher window, or unzip it into its own folder in Mods\ beside Skate.exe.
Maps show up in the ReSkate menu's level list. To join a server running a custom map, you need the same map installed. If the game won't load after installing, see known issues.
