In Skate 4, the city isn’t just your playground; it’s also your canvas. If you find a spot that looks like it could be perfect for a line, but something’s off, you can modify it with the Quick Drop feature. Quick Drop lets you reshape the world around you in real time. By pressing just a few buttons, you can drop rails, ramps, benches, and other props anywhere within your skater’s reach. This guide breaks down everything you need to know about unlocking Quick Drop in Skate 4, placing, and customizing objects so you can turn San Vansterdam into your personal skatepark.

After finishing the tutorial in Isle of Grom, you’ll kick off the San Van Full Pull Tour, which introduces you to Quick Drop. At first, you’ll only have a handful of items, like a kicker ramp and a basic rail. As you rank up neighborhood reps, complete challenges, and open product boxes, you’ll unlock more.

How To Use Quick Drop in Skate 4

Here are step-by-step instructions on how to use Quick Drop feature in Skate 4.

  • Tap down on the D-Pad and select the Quick Drop option.
  • Let go to open the Quick Drop menu.
  • From here, you can browse objects, preview them, and place them on the ground.

Before dropping an item, you’ll also have the option to rotate and tilt it, or use the Angle Snap feature to make sure everything lines up perfectly. You can then choose between:

  • Ramps (kickers, quarterpipes, launch ramps)
  • Rails (straight, curved, tall, short)
  • Pads (manual pads and flat surfaces)
  • Props (signs, benches, trash cans, tables, couches, etc.)

Quick Drop is perfect for fixing spots that feel incomplete, whether it’s dropping a ramp to clear a rooftop gap, extending a grind with an extra rail, or throwing down a manual pad in an empty plaza to keep your flow going.

For smoother runs, it’s smart to set a session marker before placing objects so you can instantly respawn and retry with your setup intact if you bail.

Quick Drop becomes even more exciting in Skate's multiplayer mode. You can team up with friends to stack ridiculous setups, create parks, and enjoy fun gameplay together.
