Is sprinting faster than using the Skateboard?

[Scholarship : Bully Edition]

Honestly, the only reason the skateboard is even slightly useful is because of its speed being able to take you from point A to point B faster than on foot. However recently i wonder if sprinting is actually faster than using the skateboard, the skateboard does seem to have realistic functionality though, for example, when you skateboard down from a huge hill or road bump, you gain more momentum and thus travel at higher speeds.

So enough with the blabbering, lets say there's two jimmy's, one is sprinting, one is skateboarding, the road is clear and its a 1km race(won't be a problem for jimmy's infinite sprint), which would win?

Whenever I replay the game I seem to forget that the skateboard exists... when I do pull it out though I'm like "Damn, this is much better than running!" The skateboard definitely felt faster.

Maybe one day when I'm really board I could time how long it takes to get from point A to point B by foot and skateboard

The skateboard is faster.

The skateboard is faster.

I agree. But if you bump into something, it's difficult to get out.

I use them both. On long hard surfaces like streets or sidewalks I ride the skateboard, but I run when it's like grass or a hard turn or something. It's fast to switch so yeah.

For paved surfaces, Skateboard is wayyyy faster.
Grass, Sand, Dirt, it sucks.
Too bad we can't Skateboard on the water.

[Mick3Mouse]

Chuck's right

[Hayley]

Oh yeah, forgot it sucks in grass, etc. ... I only remembered it sucking at going up stairs lol

I usually just stick with the game-breaking kart. Eff the skateboard

[Owais Qadri]

Running is better on grass yeh I wish you could use the skateboard on water.

[BloodChuckZ]

It's funny....I can't skateboard worth a damn in real life, but when I'm in Bully, it's the easiest thing to do.
How odd is that ?

[Owais Qadri]

skateboarding in real life is easy all you need to do is have balance and control. and you need to know how to turn.

The Skateboard in the game replaces movility for speed...Use it on concrete places,not on grass or places like that or it'll be slower,perfect to aviod prefects,and easy switchable from running to skating...
It is faster,but you'll notice moving a bit harder.
Oh and...I know it sounds obvious,but just in case...Avoid trying to climb stairs with the skate,you'll fall.

[Owais Qadri]

Skateboarding is the best on concrete.

[Bigfoot]

Bully needs a "Back to the Future 2" wtyle hover-board to get past the problems with stairs, lol.

[BloodChuckZ]

Yes, you know it is 2015 just like in BTTF 2.....Where are those Hover Skateboards anyway ?
Liars.
