Tony Hawk: Shred is a 2010 peripheral-based, motion-controlled skateboarding video game. It is part of the Tony Hawk series and the sequel to Tony Hawk: Ride.[1]

Shred introduces a snowboarding mode to the series as well as Avatar and Mii support on the Xbox 360 and Wii versions respectively. A "surfing" mode was worked on for the game, but was soon scrapped due to funds and short amount of time to work on it.

Reception and hiatus[edit]

The initial price for the game was $120 for a bundle including the skateboard controller and approximately $50 for the stand-alone game. During its first week on sale in the United States, the game sold 3,000 copies;[2][3] combined with the mixed to negative reception, the Tony Hawk franchise was put on hold until Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD was released in 2012.
