Tell us a bit about yourself. Where are you from and how did fingerboarding come into your life?
My names noah and im a fingerboarder from the utah area, Ive grown up skateboarding and when I was kid I would always buy tech decks from the store. I would always have them but I never learned anything on them. It wasnt until about 7 months ago when my good friend Jack @bigboy_.fb897 got me into it again and i’ve been hooked ever since
Is skateboarding part of your life at all, and how does it relate to fingerboarding for you?
I have skateboarded since I was a little kid and it eventually lead me to find fingerboarding and try to get better at it
Who were some of your earliest inspirations in skating or fingerboarding, and how did they influence your style?
My biggest inspiration and earliest as well would definitely have to be david jones, I always would watch his videos as a kid and still do, his easy fingerboard trick videos helped me learn all the tricks i know today
What was your first setup like, and what companies or riders stood out to you at the time?
My first setup was a liph_fb deck my friend Jack had gave me with a pair of leefai trucks and dgfb f3 wheels, when I first started dgfb always stuck out to me because they were always sold at my local shop skatestation, clark is also a local and gave me a discount on my first pair of dgfb wheels
What keeps you motivated and coming back to it?
The community, all the people ive met in the time ive fingerboarded have been so nice and have kept me in the circle, it also gives me something to do when im bored lol
Tell us about your current setup and your favorite tricks to do.
My current setup is a 8equalsdecks 27 mm with leefai trucks and teak tuning cruiser wheels, and my favorite tricks to do are frontside flips and kickflip back tailslide
How would you describe the fingerboarding community from your own experience?
The community is always so nice, I always feel included and I’ve made many great friends in the community
How do you feel about the cost of fingerboarding products today?
I feel like the prices are a bit high but not so bad, I understand the time and hard work it takes to make the products so I feel like the price is justifiable
Feel free to share a photo of your current setup or anything else you’d like to show off!
