| If tucking is unnatural for you then don't do it. Fingerboarding isn't about having perfect style, its about having fun and doing what you feel comfortable doing. |

The perfect style is riding the way you feel comfortable. |

| ^That. I personally tuck my fingers cause it gets in the way of some tricks and grinds. |

| Tucking can help in some ways, for example switch is a little easier I find, but I ride a strange combo of tucked and untucked  do what you fancy, and enjoy it |

Now I just do tucked because for me it's easier to do switch tricks, and its comfortable.
Just do what's comfortable.

| I used to do untucked but then I preferred the way my style was when I tucked, so I just started tucking my fingers for a while and now it's completely natural and my style has improved IMO. |

| I never tucked and then I saw myself on camera and then I thought that my style looked kind of ugly and then I tried to start tucking in, but then found it very uncomfortable (kind of like when a girl tries anal sex for the first time) so now I say screw tucking in and I just let it hang out all loose and ride untucked.

| When I used to "tech deck" I didn't even know about tucking in fingers. When I got into the scene, I saw in some videos that it it looked better. But I didn't like the feel of it, but somehow I got used to it, and now I ride tucked, ad I'm not planning to switch back. |
