| 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. |

| 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. |

| 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. |

| 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. |

Which is what I'd love to do 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 and kerry, will it be the food/fb one you mentioned ages ago? if it is, you should still use my amazing name, finger food |
