That's right. The amazing Daniel Marin, owner of Zink, made this incredible custom 50mm deck for me. It's set up with Ace³ tape, Tech Deck 46mm mountainboard trucks and Tech Deck cruiser wheels.
Originally, I filmed more/better stuff on this board but it didn't work on my laptop so I had another 10 minute session using the normal quality setting and came up with a few basic tricks. It's a shame about the original footage but I just wanted to show people this board and filmed some quick stuff.
It's fairly easy to do tricks on, as you can see in the video. I like using different kinds of boards and experimenting in fingerboarding, hence this board and this video. It also reflects the current trend in fingerboarding (and also skateboarding) with increasing board widths. I don't think boards will become this wide as standard any time soon. The deck itself is about 50x106... if a standard skateboard deck is 31.5" long, using the same proportions, the width would be 14.86" wide hahaha. I ride a 7.6" wide skateboard, so that would be almost double.
Anyway, I know it's shit filming, zero editing, but I hope it's interesting because I sure do love the unique features of this deck.

This. This is epic. How does it feel to ride a 50mm deck? The concave looks really deep, but I could be wrong. 50mm also seems like a good width for cruisers, don't you think?
