| Supp people! My name is Emilio, I live in Costa Rica and love fingerboarding <3
Ive been fingerboarding since like 2009 but seriously since about 2011 when I got my first wooden deck, a kulture deck(29mm as it was normal back then haha)
Now I dont feel comfortable with anything under 32. I like to make plaster ramps and walking aroud the city looking for cool spots to fingerboard, there are so many cool spots out there! I'd recommend anyone to go out and get creative!
So anyway, cool being here. |

| I have posted a couple of times and realized that I didn't properly introduce myself... I got into finger boarding about 5 years ago. I took a break for a bit as I worked on building a family and raising my kids. Now that my son is 4, I have an excuse (Not that I needed an excuse, just needed the time) to get back into finger boarding, as he loves to fb with Dad! He was rollin Tech Decks for a while and kept askin for a board "like mine". I just set him up with his first wood complete with bearing wheels! Hes super jacked! I have recently been upgrading " my ride" and i'm pretty excited for a few things in the mail! I have skate/snowboarded all my life, and grew up working at a skate shop in Ottawa (Canada). I see a few people in here from Canada, but there doesn't seem to be many. I am a father of 3, I work full time for a welding shop as a project coordinator, and I also breed snakes as a hobby. I enjoy building new obstacles for my park, and keepin it fresh! I feel like an old man in this forum! lol! I have only spoken with a couple of you on here so far, and my experiences have been great! Looking forward to absorbing this fountain of knowledge. J.  |

welding skills must be good for making your own parks and rails I welded from age 19-33, I moved into the office at the company I work for now. I'm more on the design end of things. But yes, I welded up a few obstacles a few years ago... gave it all away when i got out of fingerboarding for a few years. Doh! I have a guy is the shop working on a little stainless bench for me right now, and the top ledge for a planter I am making. Shop is pretty busy at the moment, and my "government jobs" get pushed to the back of the line (understandably so). J.

| Another oldie here!  Skateboarded for over 12 years back in the days - never forgot about it but went on to do other things, like having kids, buying a house and all that jazz... As I spend a lot of time on conference calls at work I thought I would start fingerboarding for some extra entertainment. Started like a month ago or so and got myself a KL Wood bench, a rail and a few other obstacles; it looks good on my desk! I have a couple of starter kits (Bollie, etc.) and more recently I pulled the trigger on a Homewood with BRTs and Oak wheels. I do not have a very large portfolio of tricks but I'm working on it! |
