Meeting up with people
Just letting you guys know, meeting up with people that fingerboard gives a definition to fingerboarding. I recently spent a week at Ethan Ebelings house, and really learned what true fingerboarding is.
True fingerboarding is : chilling with someone who fingerboards, talking about fingerboarding, sharing tips and tricks, teaching someone how to do a trick the other can't do, listening to music just having a "soul" sesh, doing lines, taking turns doing tricks on the same obstacle forcing you to watch someone else fingerboard without having to look through the view finder or lcd, landign a trick and watching it through the playback and getting stoked on it, landing your cleanest trick yet, landing your best combo, getting something new from a trade, and most importantly wanting to fb all the time, even if you had fingerboarded the entire day.
Keep these in mind. Even if you dont meet up with someone, you should coem in contact with a few of these things. If you dont come in contact with any of these, consider rethinking the way you fingerboard. However, meeting uop with someone will make you realize what fbing is all about.

that was very nicely said. fb is very important to people when u have fun doing it. u dont have to be a perfesional to hav fun and fb.
remember that fb is all about the fun!
This is so true and most of the time i only fingerboard when chatting to friends about it or when i am trying something a friend tought me
Righty right…Each one teach one ;)
That was the beginning,and
thats the soul of it!
great post tim!
now what if your like me and have noone to fb with because noone aroud where i live does it and theres no events where i am to meet people that do fb
i agree fb is fun
fingerboard is fun
that's what I think fingerboarding is all about...
it's not about making money
it's not about being a champion
it's not about having the best setup of the world
fingerboarding is all about having fun together!
I love jam sessions, meetings (especialli Italian meetings :P) and all this stuff!
peace and fingerboarding

always when I meet up with other fingerboarders, I enjoy fingerboarding so much more! I realized that you dont need great ramps oder boards, just have fun!
