...realistically

I see it being a really popular hobby and having even better stuff, like ramps, and boards, trucks, etc. That we probably would die for.

i see it being pretty much the same, just
better products, lots more high quality things, more hi-tech stuff
more creative things
i also see the scene becoming alot bigger
like, ALOT bigger
i also hope to see an FB shop in england

I'm on that one, soon as the economy picks up a bit I'm heading to the bank with a business plan and asking for a loan. Seriously. Not in plymouth though, probably bristol (most likely moving there this summer anyway)

I think it wont be that much more technical in terms of products, there will just be cheaper things, and more people will do it. Hopefully there will be more harmony between it and skateboarding. Shops + lots more people doing it is what I see, basically. And hopefully the scene evolving so if you want to fingerboard, you don't go on the internet to talk to friends, you just go out and meet people doing it

Do you see it being on the same level as skateboarding... as in professional etc?

BRR could definitely have professional riders that get paid, same with flatface.. maybe oak/yw/lowpro too..

I don't think anywhere near as big though, would depend on how much the media were interested I guess : o

IMO, no. I think that it may become more popular, but to those that don't fingerboard, will still be a toy for kids.

that sounds great kerry or you could move to leeds haha

Lets see here.

• Harmony between fingerboards and skateboarders, integrated a LOT
  
• Distributed into more stores
  
• China wood decks..
  
• MUCH MUCH larger scene

Hovering fingerboards




jokes. Think of fbing 10 years ago..... a few people using tech decks with skateboard grip. Now theres wooden decks, bearing polyurethane wheels and realistic trucks. I dont think much more can change like with products, just more high quality companies probably, and a way bigger scene.

one thing that wont change, we will still be getting bothered by holden.

Or he'll be lost somewhere in the Atlantic

I know a guy

10 years from now, I think it will become a much stronger scene taking away the "only kids do that" to be taken more seriously by everyone. Maybe to one day make strides to grow as skateboarding has. That's the hope.

I can safely say that these moves are being made at this point. (Referring back to Unite's post about Thom's inspiring accomplishment.)

15 years man who knows. I do know I'd like to be here to see it.

danny when you say an FB shop in england , do you mean like skateshop's selling fb products because my local skateshop stockk brr stuff jk
my local skateshops stock tech decks and ramps and lots of tech deck related shit also finger ripstiks.
or do you mean a whole shop dedicated to fbing.

^finger ripsticks? Dear christ.. next we'll have.. finger pogo sticks, or unicycles : o

but yea, he means a whole shop I'm pretty sure. Which is what I'd love to do

bigger than skateboarding because it will snow all the time and no one will be able to skate lol jk but i think it could go down two paths, get realllt really big or die out(i hope it doesnt)

lmao, finger unicycles would be great. but then there would be forums such as FUC. which might not go down too well with the parents.....
'hey mom, im going to meet some guys from fuc.com!'

but yeah, i mean a whole shop
