Been a busy year for me. 3 months in Cambodia from Dec-March this year and then 5 months in Moscow, Russia from March-August... and beyond.

Fingerboarding has been pretty much non existent in my life for the last 8 months or so. But through some pure luck and good timing, I managed to get in touch with Nick Uvarov, who's one of the main Russian fbers and owns the biggest fb shop in Russia.

I messaged him for the first time on Wednesday night and was fbing with him and 2 other guys the next day. Had a feeling we'd end up finding some street spot, but as it turns out...

There's a room in a local government funded centre dedicated to fingerboarding!

The room was full of ramps including a big mini and tonnnnns of others... There was also another full scale park other than the one in the photo!

I was a bit rusty after the 8 months of only flatground fbing but the park had so many spots it was hard not to just have fun!

Seeya around and regards from Russia...

I think there should be a Government funded fingerboard building in every country!
