skateboarding is an activity i do almost every day all year round. I skate for travel as well as sport so i believe it would be a well used and appreciated feature in the app. Roller skating and inline skating are already work outs on the app and they are also commonly used in a travel and skatepark setting. If roller and inline skating can be included as a workout why cant skateboarding? I also believe skateboarding is the most popular kind of skating for travel and it once again seems to be growing in popularity.

 

Please add skateboarding as a workout.

I have looked back in the Samsung Community Forum and seen a similar post from over 2 years ago. 

 

Please can Skateboarding be added ASAP.

 

It is an incredibly popular sport and a feature that millions of Samsung customers will use and benefit from.

I am very disappointed to not see skateboarding as an exercise on Samsung Health. Doesn't make any sense why snowboarding, something that was basically designed off of skateboarding, can be on here but no skateboarding.

I love everything about the Samsung Health app but this is making me not like it as much.

Still not sure what the delay is. I've been messaging them for years on this topic. Sailing and snowshoeing are options, but not skateboarding? Sounds like whoever is in charge of these exercises, cannot kickflip.

For real though, seems like it's more of a hatred for skateboarding. Add two little dots under the snowboard guy for wheels, and use the same measurements. 30 minutes of their time!

Samsung, come on. Add the little wheels like Addemj said, tweak whatever it is you have to tweak, and get this going. It's ridiculous the wait has pushed four years, if not more. Please, add skateboarding.
