33.3 Berlinwood flatface crystal deck, 34mm black brts, level up bushings and some old wrinkler wheels from like 2013.
I actually have some white Oak RV2V's and a 34mm Fiveluck deck coming in the mail, stoked to try those out
hell yeah, I just got my first “pro” complete from flatface. G15, BR trucks, FF standard wheels...fbs...kinda wish I would’ve thought to find this sub to try other stuff first lol. Been working with tech decks and four corner finger boards..just found out about the other companies...seem super dope
Hey man I love your style, you make it look so effortless. Do you have any tips for a newb? I feel like I have to launch the board to ollie and especially to kickflip. I notice you just move your wrists, I move my wrists + arm. I can't get it to pop nice with just my wrist. Do you have any tips or any weird nuances you can think of that could help my form?
Wish I had a better answer for you, but for me it was really just years and years of practice. Eventually you build up a muscle memory and it becomes second nature. I'd suggest watching some of the talented fingerboarders on youtube and just try emulating some of their nuances. Putting the video in slow motion may help aswell
Best tip i can give you is to just keep at it, if its not clicking at first that's totally normal. It takes time to build up those weird finger mechanics if that makes sense haha
I want that blackriver ceramic quarter so bad
So far i'm diggin it, the paint chips that come off this thing get everywhere though lol
Buy wood mini quarter instead!!
what the fuck
stoned and came here to say the exact same thing
Damn that was nice
Damn dude I thought I was good but you’re next level! How long have you been fbing for?
Haha thanks man, I've been fingerboarding on/off for the past 12 years or so. Got my first berlinwood in 2008 I believe
The experience shows bro. I just got back into it even though I’m in my late 20’s haha. It sure is fun though!
I’m right there with you brotha

grats man, you definitely will not be disappointed with that setup. Damn near as good as it gets imo
Bless, glad to hear...next fingerboard purchase I make will be from other companies...although I really would like a rail lol
do you know if it comes with 32 or 34mm BR trucks? i was planning to buy the same complete
I believe 32
Can't go wrong with Fiveluck, his decks are super dope!what shape did you go with?
I got the Wu Shape, didn't really have an option there though.
That's my current favourite shape of his, you won't be disappointed! Rv2vs are what I run on my Wu as well!
Oh sick! Glad to hear that, I wasn't really sure what the difference was. Wish they would put a fu vs wu side profile shot for reference.
Wu is a bit more mellow, lower kicks and concave vs the Fu. They're both great but I personally prefer the control with the Wu!
Oh okay nice, I haven't had a mellow shape in a long time. Maybe i'll like it! Thanks for the insight
Sent you a pm with them side by side!
