The last full length I released back in 2014 was the best video this year.
In all seriousness, I don't know if I can point to one vid that's been the best thus far, but if I had to choose who would be the overall fingerboarder of the year so far, it would either be Francisco Martins or Ryan Bernier. In my opinion, the two most skilled fingerboarders out there right now no doubt.

agreed, haven't been enough videos yet. I would for sure say that Ryan and Francisco are top 5 fingerboarders at the moment. All others can be left up to opinion

Wow!!! Truly humbled to have made your list meekin!!!
Alex Garcia is my all-time-fav fingerboarder - love anything this guy does.
'The Hardest' is INDEED off tap!!! Killer style and bag of tricks!
I JUST saw 'Ledgendary' for the first time a week or so back and was blown away by the filming, plaza layout and amazing tricks...was showing all my fingerboard mates this...dude rips hard for sure!!!

It's so hard for me to even make a definitive list anymore. If you asked me back in like 08-09, I could have made a clear cut list of who I thought was top 5 at that time. It was just so much easier to keep up to date with everything back then.
But as for now, other names you could throw around besides Ryan and Francisco would be Jay, Mike, Wolfgang, and then even Colton Miller and Jack Norris even though they aren't active as much anymore.

^^Agreed, i feel like back in the FFI days i knew of every single top tier fingerboarder and could list them. Now that half of those guys are gone, its definitely harder for me to find new guys and their videos. especially with the forum scene declining.

Yeah, it's hard to find new guys that upload frequent videos. I just feel like more people would upload 15-20 second instagram clips over 2-3 minute youtube "full lengths." I much prefer Youtube

Everything the homie Francisco posts it's always amazing! And Gabe Scott's videos get me super hyped to fingerboard speacially this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3klsMNb5rw
