Shred Camp vs TrickBook
Shred Camp vs TrickBook.
TrickBook and Shred Camp both help skaters track progress, but they are built for different things. TrickBook is a multi sport trick tracker and community app. Shred Camp is a skateboarding specific coach with a structured learning path. Here is how they actually compare.
What TrickBook does well
TrickBook is built around tracking and community, and it covers more ground than just skateboarding. It is designed for skaters, snowboarders, and other action sports riders to log tricks as they land them, build custom trick lists for whatever sport they are doing, and see a progress dashboard move from beginner toward advanced.
On top of tracking, TrickBook leans into community: you can follow other riders, message them, share clips, and find nearby spots on its map. It is also privacy focused, with no ads and a stated commitment to keeping user data private. If you ride more than one sport or want a social hub built around progress, that combination is genuinely useful.
What Shred Camp does differently
Shred Camp goes narrower and deeper. It is built specifically for skateboarding, not as a general action sports tool, and that focus shows up in the content: 100+ trick breakdowns organized into a real progression path based on what tricks depend on each other, not just a list you check off as landed.
Instead of a general purpose trick reference, Shred Camp builds actual session plans around your goal trick, and daily challenges to keep pushing you toward the next one. There is also a Stoke feed for watching real skate parts and channel highlights, which plays a similar role to TrickBook's community feed but is curated around content instead of user posts.

Who TrickBook is a better fit for
If you ride more than one sport and want a single app to log everything, or the social side matters most to you, following riders, sharing clips, and finding a crew, TrickBook is built for that in a way Shred Camp is not trying to be.
Who Shred Camp is a better fit for
If skateboarding is the thing you are focused on and you want an actual plan, not just a place to log what you land, Shred Camp's depth on trick progression and session planning is the difference. Take a look at Shred Camp Pro to see the full path and planning tools.
Can you use both?
There is real overlap between the two, but not so much that using both feels redundant. A snowboarder and skater might use TrickBook as the one place to log tricks across both sports and stay connected with a crew, while leaning on Shred Camp specifically for the skateboarding side, where the progression path and session plans do the heavy lifting that a general purpose tracker is not built to do.
Bottom line
TrickBook is a strong choice if you want one app to track progress across multiple sports and stay connected with other riders. Shred Camp is a strong choice if skateboarding is your main focus and you want a real plan for what to practice, not just a log of what you have already landed. Neither is trying to be the other, and that is what makes the comparison an easy one to make honestly.

Shred Camp. TrickBook's Trickipedia is a trick reference and tracking tool, while Shred Camp organizes its trick library into a prerequisite based progression path with a dedicated breakdown for each trick.
