| Got a bit nostalgic and ended up back here to see the forum in this sad state I remember spending hours on here back in the day, chatting to you lot. Opening this for random discussion to what we're up to these days, what's changed etc... thats if anyone even comes across this! So I moved like 100 miles south (from the Midlands UK) down to London about 18 months ago and things have been fine (other than the current pandemic, but lets not talk about that). Hope you're all well x |

| Mad times we're living in. Definitely miss the glory days here but forums in general seem to have died out.
I bought a house in december, all downhill from there. Finally moved in about a month ago.
Also, shaved my head. |

| yo its Jack L. Deleted my old account bc there was a ton of old posts on it so thought I'd make a new one.
Me and Danny were chatting about the forum on fb - I think the state of the forum is reflective of the state of most forums. Everything is super facebook centric now which is a shame. Can only think of a couple of forums I use/lurk that are still active. Good to hear that you're both well though, have been looking at moving down to London myself but I can't see it happening till next year, especially w the current state of affairs. Hoping everything will calm down a bit but doesn't seem that likely atm. Just trying to stay focussed on finishing my uni work and dissertation for the time being!

| Yeah I totally agree! Forums have been dead for a long time so I'm not surprised - maybe we can look at permanently archiving this site so we can all look back and laugh at it again in 5 years time, I'm happy to chase this up Also glad to hear both of you are getting on well! |

Good question. I know it's super inactive but something about it being gone forever would just be too sad. First post in a long ass while. Miss this place in its hay day so much. Imagine how lit the chatbox would be with everybody stuck inside all day cause of this quarantine lmao. Hope you've all been doing well! |

| Damn reading this makes me miss FBHQ.
If everyone didn't move to IG, then Discord, cleaned up whatever IG left behind.
Maybe one day we could get another chat meetup going for old times sake? |

| Damn it's insane seeing this forum now. I joined the scene later than most of you, but I remember when I first got into fingerboarding when I was like 13 or so and watched all the sick youtube vids of fingerboarding and back when people like Taylor Rosenbauer were relevent etc... You could hop on FBHQ on a summer night and jump in the chat and just talk about whatever then see what cool stuff was coming out from companies, and also what shit was being produced by new 'companies'. It's a shame how the FB scene just doesn't feel the same anymore. Even though there's so much going on on instagram and social media with FB'ing, it just, lacks something... Even a lot of the new FB youtubers lack that old vibe that you used to get from watching anything from an edit to an unboxing. Miss it here. Maybe we need to congregate and just make something new for the FB scene to try and turn back times? |

| Although there have been some periods I've not been on the forums, I have still been fingerboarding. Went to some events in 2017 and 2018. Got back into the online scene on Discord and IG in late 2018. That's where it all is now. |
