How would I make a skateboard as a character?

Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint

I’m trying to do a skateboarding demo just for fun and testing purposes, since I just started using Unreal Engine!

I want to make a Skateboard work kinda like in ‘‘True Skate’’, how would I do that?
I’m not being lazy and asking for you to do all the job, I just really don’t know where to start and I would like some guidance!
Oh, and should I use the third person template?Or the car template?Or none?

Here’s a video that shows something like what I want:

Thanks in advance!

You’d need to possess the skateboard somehow, I’m not sure how, as I haven’t done that. I’m pretty sure you just have to turn the skateboard into a vehicle and possess it as if it were a character.

‘‘Possess’’ would be to give the skateboard input?

Yes basically, there is a possess node that you can use.

I’ll try that!
Thanks!

Skateboard shoud derive from pawn, so your player can posess it
So i would start with player posessing the character, and when you use the skateboard, player posesses the skate… Check documentation on pawn and player
