It's neither really, It is what it is. I'd say its an unusual / unique hobby. I'd had tech decks for years before realising that people could do stuff that looked like skateboarding on them. And I'd definitely say fingerboarding has considerably grown in popularity since I started, and that it is way more accessible. There didn't used to be uk distros that carried decent stuff; brr, flatface etc... I remember berlinwoods not being available on blackriver for like 6 months to a year untill they released the Elias blank deck. And yellowoods used to sell out as soon as they were stocked, It was neerly impossible to get one

Why spend your time on a life that does not make you happy?
I'm stoked on life, love my wife, love my kids, love my friends.. i love going to work every day, i've never had that "oh fuck tomorrow it's monday" feeling. I'm a happy dude!
