| Hey, I've seen some video's with different styles. When I say styles I mean, fingers stretched out, fingertips, flat fingers across the deck, fingers tucked in but how do you ride? I think it's most comfortable to stretch them out but fingertips & tucked in looks so much better What about you? P.S. Sorry if I sound like a retard, I just wanna know |

| I think I usually keep my fingers flat across the deck, and I tuck my fingers in. Even though fingertips probably look better, it feels weird landing tricks like that for me. |

| Tucked.
But I've added my own little alteration with my own unique style, that Jason Bard has now nicknamed "German Steezy Mon". |

| I try to learn my things with them stretched and flat because I find it easier, then once I've mastered that I try tips & tucked to make it look like Jessica Alba |
