| https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stoRDfjEsRU&feature=g-u&context=G2d2a731FUAAAAAAAAAASo Sid is at it again. Summary of the video: Some kid (presumably 14 as his screenname has 1997 in it) sends sid: BRR Funbox - 45Euro BRR Kicker - 15Euro Wide Trucks and Tuning - 4Euro Homemade Picket Fence Obstacle - 2Euro Maybe Stickers - 5-7Euro TOTAL = 71-73 Euros What sid is sending this kid: Prowood Deck - 12Euro Random old Homemade deck - 5Euro 2 sets wide trucks - 8Euro Marble Bench - 10Euro China wheels - 5Euro TOTAL = 40 Euros This is becoming ridiculous. BRR ramps for china bullshit and a prowood deck. I messaged him about it and he replied with "I gave him what he asked for". What he asked for was a good graphic deck and you give him prowood shit. |

| I agree that it has to stop. As a fingerboard community, we need to unite and speak out about this. It is certainly sad to see an adult and a "professional" fingerboarder abuse his position and take advantage of other people like this, especially if the people are very young.
I could have done the same when I went to Little Wheels 2. There were loads of kids that were offering me too much for stuff so I refused and would only accept fair prices. |

| Especially a guy as Sid, who has all he needs in fingerboarding.. He should make the trades the other way around. |

I dont consider anyone to be a professional unless they make money doing it, because that basically defines a profession, but still he knows that he has fans that want to trade with him and he exploits that completely. I say we all send the same exact message to him at once, like 100 of us. |

| Sid has been so annoying in the past couple of years ripping off kids! He has started to anger me and I am wondering what influences him to such trades just to benefit himself! Half of most of the stuff he sends out to these kids are just things he has got to review. The thing that really pushes my buttons it that he has got a partnership with YouTube. Making a couple more $ / £ for himself. |

| We should all start making videos of us talking, face to face, telling people about Sid's bullshit actions and telling them to spread it around. If we all do it, it wouldn't go unnoticed. |

| You do have to realize some kids give Sid amazing deals so they can get better known as a person that trades in the fingerboarding scene... Also i would never consider Sid a "professional fingerboarder", he is more of a professional trader? |

| Xi did write professional in ""'s. And Sid is somewhat known in the fingerboarding scene all over. Im sure that's all Xi meant with that. |
