"Ok, not as catchy as "Pro Skater", but did you know that "proskater" is a curse word in the U.K.? Yeah, its true, it's very bad to say, so when this game came out in the U.K., they changed the name of it, & if you don't like that, then you can suck my proskater."
The word was derived from a guitar in terrible shape. Scratched, terrible strings, and sounded like a dying rabbit was calling out of the amp. However, a custom made humbucker, blue steel strings, and a 5 way tone switcher fixed that. Now the word is used to describe any knock-off of popular merchandise.
A VERY offensive word to british people...not really. It's a joke word Youtuber Caddicarus used inorder to explain why Tony Hawk's Pro Skater was named Tony Hawk's Skateboarding in the UK. (The real reason why is because people thought "Skater" would be confused for Ice Skating. Stupid reason, i know.)

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
