Having Nothing : [
As most of you know, i spent the last week at Ethan Ebelings house and had the time of my life. It was great until i left because i forgot to transfer my fingerboard stuff, and camera from his car to my car. I brought my laptop, and clothes but not that stuff. Don't ask how i could have let that happen. I just wasn't thinking.
Anyway, the point of my article is that because i forgot everything to fingerboard at his house, it has forced me to fingerboard without a camera, and good fingerboard stuff. When i got home, i got a package from Sydnee. it was my Naipe. The deck is sick! I put on esmooth, and luckily had my g7s from my g12 which i had in my pocket. I scrounged my floor for screws, and set it up. Withing this time that i havent had a camera and stuff, it reminded me what real fingerboarding is about.
I made a ramp out of cardboard, a damn good ramp out of cardboard. Since my only wood deck is the Naipe at the moment, i learned all my tricks on it, and was forced to work with what i had, instead of being able to change around the setup whenever i wanted.
It reminded me of when i started in 06, and all i had was tech decks, and skate grip. I used one tech deck, and made all my ramps out of cardboard. I kinda like having no camera, but i really od miss it, and realize i have alot of reasons to film, all the time.
Anyway, keep this in mind too. I'm fresh out of inspirational articles for now, hope you enjoy my thoughts!

this reminds me back when i was new to fingerboarding. i used tech deck and make cardboard ramps.
nice article. :)
man does this make me bring back memorys of making a cardboard fingerboard lets say techdeck park andi set the hole thing one fire within the ramps and skated it tell there was alomost nothing left
this is a great article, i have an idea for an article, make one for people to make a video, like of a meet up or something that shows what fingerboarding is all about.
Aha i went on a trip to toronto and had a meet up with a girl named Ellie Fowler and anyway i knew about wooden boards and stuff but since i love in newfoundland (that's in canada) there are no wooden board sellers here so i got up there and she made me a board of my own i was so pumped , sadly i lost all my tricks for about a week and was so pissed also ellie crack and caught my only techdeck on fire :P. Also after skating all her BRR stuff i had to come home and skate my cardboard stuff so rotted :P
