So i've been fingerboarding for a long time and i've always been intrigued with the history of fingerboarding. Post any fingerboard history here.
I was lurking around on google and I found this forum Fingerboard_Now. No one has posted anything there since 2008, but it definately is a blast from the past!
Still the same Homewood M3, here you can see the bearing screws that came with the Substance Ultimates back then.
ShineWood Deep Concave. I was a huge fan of these decks, the one on the right was my main setup for a looong time. The other deck was one i bought as backup, and i chose to set it up when the other started to loose its shape.
Oooooooold Rip tape kit
The stuff on the pictures is either sold or in my private museum of fingerboarding, so don't ask if you can buy anything. But if you have questions just to satisfy your nostalgia or interrest in fingerboard history then ask away

Here is an old Powell Peralta video from 1985 with Lance Mountain fingerboarding with guys like Tony Hawk watching. Skip to about 30 seconds to see it.

Seriously though seeing some of those old fingerboard videos is super inspirational... It's good to know the roots of any hobby you are into... Especially fingerboarding!

Substance Omega! I don't remember when these were around, probably around 07/08.
A 3ply deck i got from some dude.

Long time ago i used to have a deck company called Danish. I used a wooden mold, and veneer i got from school. Here are some of the decks i made:
