| Wasn't sure if i should move it to fingerboard disc or off topic. Very important with information about shitty companies Anyway, chose to move it to off topic because you are too scared to post it under your real account |

| I seemed to have missed the whole story behind fireflame fingerboards... But I am curious to know what went down. Can someone quick summarize what went down with this company? It seems like a good amount of people know about it. Was is just a china trucks/wheels/decks company or what? From outside looking in the video is a little mean, but I don't even know the half of it. |

| Micaso, I just went to the website and started looking at their products and trust me, you can kind of figure it out for yourself. Just went to the "completes" and read the description for the FireFlame S10 complete. It is obvious they are just being so far up their own tree, and even copying some stuff you can see on the Flatface site. Parts of the description are obviously mimicked. And they even stole from woob......
"The deck has a shorter wheelbase, resulting in more control, and a relaxing and cozy feeling."
Hmmm coincidence? I think not.
Oh and the redundancy in this line just made me laugh...
"Perfectness has been perfected in numerous tests of materials, shapes, and methods of production." |

| Their previous website design was literally the exact same one as flatface. i called him out on it on instagram and he kept denying it, a month later he replies saying "We have changed our website design, does it look more original?" Fireflame is a joke. He even has "Grab bags"! Hmm I wonder where he stole that name from? flatface once again.. in fact i got really fucking pissed off at him once because i posted a picture of my Level Ledge, which are now being sold on fireflame.. (i got mine from the level ledges site), and of course adnaan thrives on self promotion, so he takes my picture and says "look at @hightekfb's new level ledge, NOW AVAILABLE ON FIREFLAME" i told him to take it down, and he kept saying that it was promoting me too, i had to say in a nice way "I dont want to support your company, so dont take my picture with out permission to promote yourself". I also hate when i get kids on my youtube telling me to buy a fireflame deck, pisses me off

| adnaan is probably the biggest fanboy in history lol
also, mike makes a living from flatface, and his little "company" is stealing mikes customers, and providing less revinue for mikes bills. if he likes mike so much, why is he, in a sense, stealing from him?
thats some fucked up shit. |

/rant Some kids need to read the books and learn about copyright. At least he didn't try to edit it in with a crappy filter and crop certain parts of it to make it look like his. I'll give him that but it's probably too much. |

| This company is by far, unlegit. I know many other companies who "strive to serve the fingerboarding community the best products" want to get their name out, and get customers. But this one, is ridiculous. I've seen this guy make several anonymous accounts on Instagram, to get his company name, more popular. Or more attention. When called out on it, he blocks everyone, and denies the fact that he has fake accounts |
