| if you don't like something enough that you'd let someone elses decision change what you do with your life, then, well, you either don't like fingerboarding, or you need more self esteem.
Decide big decisions like this in life on your own, its better that way. Thus I wont vote. |

| Just tell us what's put you off it.
Someone offended you, made fun of you, or you just don't like fingerboarding. |

| When you don't really feel the hype and stuff for fingerboarding, it doesn't mean you have to sell all your stuff and never touch a fingerboard again... keep your setup and just put it in a draw somewhere, fingerboard when you're bored or whatever... |

| it's a sad day when someone i know... even more, someone i have known for 3 years decides to quit fingerboarding. the "thrill" that you get, is there when you want it to be, its not just there like walls on a house (if that makes sence). it was great fingerboarding with you in year 7 and 8 at the library at lunchtimes :') . like kerry said, it is down to you to make big decisions like this by yourself, and i hope you make the right choice for yourself |

| I went through the same thing you're going through. About a year ago for some reason I just lost that love for fingerboarding because I was picking up some other things but I just took a break from it for about a month and I immediately loved it again. I think everyone needs a break sometime or another and I dont think that you should quit. Before you make a decision like this...take a break for 3 weeks/ a month and see if you still really want to do it. Also learning new tricks always helps keep me on track and now I can safely say that I have never loved fingerboarding more in my life than I do right now. Good luck and I hope you make a good decision |

| it seems like your minds made up, but i think we can all relate to getting to that point at sometime or another. the major point that almost everyone is trying to say is it's a choice ultimately belongs to you cause your the one who has to live with it. there have been times i have asked myself that same question, i guess you should do a test if you stop for a week or 2. at the end of the time you find you didnt miss it then you have your answer. i wish you the best on what ever you decide. |

| Let me tell you this, I quit like a year or two ago, same thing happened for me. I lost that thrill of fingerboarding. But after a while, I picked up like a tech deck or something and found out what I had been missing the whole time. Don't get rid of everything, take a break for a while, and maybe you'll find that thrill again. If you do, you at least would have all your ramps/whatever you planned on selling. |
