I'm just wondering what ages people should you be for fingerboarding?
I think it's for all ages but what do u think

By 11 you could really start to appreciate entry level fingerboarding

Age is a state of mind.

You don't have to be any age to enjoy anything.

I've always thought that too.
Very well put.

For me if you have hands and a fingers and knows the basic tricks of a skateboard you can FB. Age doesn't really matter as long as you have dedication and love to the hobby. Dude I'm 22 yrs old and starting back again to the scene from being inactive from 5 years. Sometimes I feel old for this but who gives a shit, I'm happy and enjoying it! I have a friend of mine saw me seshing he said "Dude that's lame! try the real one." I just said "try to pop the board and do ollie you f*cktard." then he tried couldn't do it. He said "Geezzuz christ, F*ck this is hard!" I was like ROFL! you jerk.

Haha, I feel a bit old for fingerboarding but the enjoyment I get from it is all that matters. It also fits well with skateboarding.

older than ross, haha XD

but yea, I'm 23 and I think its great there are a bunch of us my age doing this.

Age is merely one of societies boundaries for dictating what you should and shouldn't do. Enjoy yourself, live life, be yourself.

there is no age limit, but i suppose youve probably got to be like 10+ to really apreciate it i suppose.

I think I'm too old for finger boarding, but I don't care, its fun so I carry on.

I had a much bigger problem with my age when i was 16-18 than i have now..
Haha, now i don't care what people think..

I am a fan of fingerboarders in their 20's

I think it takes until at least the mid-teenage years to really appreciate fingerboarding as a hobby. If you're still fingerboarding at that age, that's when you know it's a true hobby.

27years old and I 'm still riding all the time!
What's the problem?

Im 12, I can see myself doing it in the future.

No age limit what so ever.


If you enjoy what your doing it doesn't matter!

I'm 24 I do it, I'm sure my friends would give me shit per it but only In a friendly way, but I still avoid it..
But at the same time who cares.. It's fun and I've talks to some nice folks, I'm not gonna stop

^ This. It's the same as me, but my rep gets ruined by it, hardly anyone knows apart from 3 of my friends which used to do it, so they can't take the piss out of me..

But yeah, who gives a flying fuck about what anyone else thinks....

When you are an adult who fingerboards, then most people won't give you shit about it. Unless they are dicks, in which case you should find some other people to hang with.

Most people will know that it's not just a toy just from the fact that they see an adult doing it.

At least thats my experience.

Yeah it stupid its not more accepted as a hobby than just "for kids".
People need to stop being so judgemental about shit,
I'm sure ther is something they do that's laughable in our eyes, like those shufflers

I recall a similar topic on FFI recently. Arthritis is gonna be a bitch.

^I'm thinking us fingerboarders will have a lower chance of arthritis due to how much we move our fingers?

That could be a possibility Danny, let's hope so anyway

On the topic of haters...

You're going to get them wherever you go, no matter what age you are, no matter what you are doing.

Haters... Gonna... Hate.

watch this.. he's 4 y/o.
you can really start at this age.if there's the desire & passion..

i'm 15 and i dont see myself stoping so early lol
