About Super Skateboardin'
Your Dad got you an after-school job at the factory where he works. You need the money 'cuz being the most radical boarder around means you've got heavy expenses. The job is a skateboarder's dream come true. Miles of halls and tubes to perfect your moves. Just cruise through and turn off all the machines and lights in the factory. Hurry up 'cuz power is leaking out fast! Naturally, there's a catch. You get paid depending on how much power you save. And you've got to be out of the factory by 5:15 pm today. One second more and you'll never make the deadline for entering the Skateboarding Championship.

Absolute Entertainment's entry in the 7800's third-party opening, a skateboarding follow-up to its 2600 game that is thinly documented.
Computer Entertainer reported that once the 7800 passed a million units sold, Absolute Entertainment signed with Atari as the first third-party developer for the system. Super Skateboardin' was one of two first games, an extension of Absolute's existing 2600 skateboarding game, alongside the carrier-jet game F-18 Hornet. David Crane is credited as programmer.
That is nearly all that is documented. The cartridge is a one-player game with a Pro-Line joystick, and it came out at the end of 1988.
Before you buy
It is an Absolute Entertainment cart with the standard third-party label and AV-047 serial, rated scarce-plus. The box and manual carry much of a complete copy's value. Pro-Line joystick, one player. The library gives it no Atari CX number.
