Okay one more throwback for my older heads...

Who was on the fingerboarding scene when this site was around?

http://web.archive.org/web/20011015101556/www.moshmelloz.com/moshmenu.html

Moshmelloz was the first custom bushings i knew of and we used to always look forward to his ramp mods!

i think these were before everyones time on here

Haha I've been playing with fingerboards for waaay too long I suppose.

Moshmelloz is the DIY handbook for fingerboarding. Stupid question but how were moshmelloz bushings?

I remember hearing about moshmelloz way back on the tech deck forums.

I recall seeing these on the Tech Deck forum YEARS back as well...was always curious about them, but never got the chance to try them out . From memory these where the first 'proper' bushings released...

Holy shit!! I have no seen this site in years!!!!
I used to try to make replicas of the ramps he made, its to bad theres only have of them up there now tho..
Oh well, thats a super blast from the past haha

haha exactly! I was tripping out when i found that website! I used to think his ramps were AMAZING and tried to make replicas as well haha

This was like the best fingerboarding site out when I started. He was still doing it when I came around, I had some of the bushings through a secondhand source. They were actually really good for the time.

Yeh Im kinda in the same boat as Jay on this one. I seem to have forgotten an awful lot about companies when I first started but MoshMellows still bring back memories.

I do still miss the 'Martin Illsley' Era. Always associated with great companies.

Yes man Arctic was the best, tuning was quality and he was a sick guy. Just one of many companies he was associated with though. Wasn't he a large part of running FFI for a while? This whole thread is great nostalgia haha. First board I ever handmade was the "composite" board in the moshmellowz tutorial section. It was a total failure but I gotta give moshmellowz a lot of credit for really pulling me into fnigerboarding and its various creative aspects.

Yeh before arctic he ran Cocaine, Empire, Athena, Madness and Priest (At different times).

I met him and Tina 10 years ago! Tina pretty much ran FFI single handedly for ages.

Shame they had to split and split from the scene in general too.

I have the bushing directions printed on stationary paper. lol.. had them saved in a box since 2005ish.
Anyone want me to make that into a PDF?

I might make a video tutorial of how witchcraft bushings are made. Moshmellows inspired me to make my own back in 2003ish or 04

shame that the plans don't show anymore.
the first ramp i ever made was a wooden copy of their picnic table and i made it in crafts class when i was like 11/12 years old... i wish i still had this ramp.

^^^

Did the same thing, this was the best site when I first started to get serious about fingerboarding.
My picnic table was so terrible but it worked! Miss those days
