Vert Skating

Really enjoying other aspects of the skate mechanics, but vert skating is not great compared to previous skate games. 

Vert ramps seem to completely kill your speed, unless you’ve come down a massive ramp you barely get air and its hard pull off tricks. 
skate 3 you could skate two vert ramps and build up speed pulling off some nice tricks, on this your speed is killed on the first vert ramp. If you try and skate two opposite vert ramps your speed gets slower and slower instead of increasing. 
Tricks like a 900 are virtually impossible compared to skate 3 unfortunately.
