yes public parks attract people into it, yw released a pic where some old folks passed by the park and got interested, that'll probably happen with teenagers kids and well even adults too, that'll just get fingerboarding even more accepted by the community and that's a real good thing
and yeah public spots are best ^^

Definately one of the absolute coolest things i've seen in a while, it's too bad nothing like this could pop up aroun where I live.Hopefully it won't be wasted effort and people will actually use the parks for what they're made for and dumb kids wont try to mess it up, it only takes one person to mess it up for everyone.

that would be an amazing idea especially in the U.S i have had tons of friends near me get into fingerboarding because we skate together. I think the problem is that some people are destructive and do not respect fingerboarding at all and could start problems but other than that i wish they would make parks and sculptures locally in towns where fingerboarding is big.

It would be awesome to see that happen but before this may become a widespread feature, we need more basic parks at indoor skateparks funded with regular income or grants.

All this would be possible if people weren't close-minded idiots. You know, the kind that comment on Mike Scheider's Redbull welcomes video saying, "This is a joke, right?" or "What the fuck did I just watch?"

People don't respect fingerboarding because all they see is a toy, and not a mini skateboard.

valid points everyone, I agree mainly. I think xi sums it up, once we spread this to skateparks indoors we can eventually spread it to a much larger demographic and into the public domain happy
