hmmm, try having a meetup happy thats an easy way to motivate you, its easy to find people in Leeds aswell, there's about 15 Leeds fingerboarders haha, ask rudi or Lewis hall, they're usually at the works happy

if you still decide its not fun anymore, then It's your decision to quit or not happy but if you do quit,
dibs on the box 3 wink haha...

Ahaha! Wtf this guy's in Leeds too? Danny you need to send me a full list of all the people here.

This forum shouldn't be what gets anyone motivated to fingerboard, it should be the joy of fingerboarding. If you don't enjoy it then don't do it for a while. I quit for about 2 years and now that I'm back I'm having more fun than I ever did before. Some times you have to quit something to realise why you enjoyed it in the first place. If you don't want to quit for a while then I suggest you pick up a stock td and put all your obstacles away. Go outside or find cool things in your house that look barely seshable and session them. Don't even bother with flip tricks, and don't film anything. Just have fun. Then you'll realise that's where it's at, and not whatever you were trying to do before.

Quick motivation restoration suggestions:

Watch fb and sb videos of your favourite skaters - possibly try and recreate their tricks and lines.

Buy/trade and get new product(s).

Clean your desk and/or rearrage your ramps.

Make a new ramp.

Fingerboard in a different location, another room or outside spots.

Put on some suitable music you like.
