How did you first get into fingerboarding?
My older brother had tech decks when I was a kid
How long have you been fingerboarding?
18 years on and off lol. Last 5-6 years got into more seriously (in terms of better tricks/products etc)
Do you do finger warm-ups?
Nah
Do your fingers hurt from fingerboarding?
Nada
Is it possible to make a living off of fingerboarding? How?
I mean yeah, the top percentage of fingerboard companies definitely generate enough money to make a living. As for making a living as a “rider” or the person actually doing the fingerboarding, definitely much harder. There are some that have managed to gain a large social media following, and make money through that; But even then, most of the ones who have the following also sell products themselves now.
What are your favorite fingerboard companies?
@pushinplanks, dynamic, black river, level up, solar tuning
Do you think that fingerboarders will find it easier to use skateboards?
An experienced fingerboarder may have a better grasp on the tricks and how they work, but I don’t think it would correlate directly into it being easier to skate as balance is introduced, something that you don’t have to worry about with when fingerboarding (besides some manuals/grinds) but you get me.
Do you skateboard?
Yes
How often do you get injured while fingerboarding?
Never
What is the worst injury you have sustained from fingerboarding?
None
What do you think makes a fingerboarder stand out from all the other fingerboarders?
Top 3 things that make people stand out to me are by far style, technical skill, and how it’s recorded.
About how many fingerboard tricks do you think there are?
This is a trick question lol, everything that you can do on a real skateboard flip trick wise, and more if you get creative.
What’s the coolest fingerboard trick that you can do?
Ghetto bird (fakie hardflip late bs180)
What’s the coolest fingerboard trick ever?
I’m a sucker for non mobbed late flip variations lol
Who is the greatest fingerboarder of all time?
@fingnars on IG
Close favorites of mine are @wolfgag_ on IG and Finger Benh
What are things to NOT say to a fingerboarder?
“Skate a real board”
Say something to fingerboarders
Stop rolling back before you pop you tricks. Kidding… kinda
Give advice to people who’d like to start fingerboarding
Have fun and be creative!
What would you say to people who think that fingerboarding is stupid/dumb/cringy?
