Instructions

To learn how to operate a fingerboard, you first need to learn how to stand on it. The fingers are placed on the board in the same way as the feet on a regular board. When your hand is already used to it, try to ride it, controlling the board only with your middle and index fingers.

The simplest trick is Ollie. It is the basis of many tricks. Ollie is a jump along with the board, i.e. During the jump, your fingers must remain on it; using this trick, you can later jump onto various surfaces, flip and slide. Place your middle finger on the tail of your board and your index finger over the front of your fingerboard, although the position of your index finger may vary slightly depending on your stance.
Make a snap (sharp pressure) with your middle finger on the tail of the board and “pull” the board with your index finger so that the board is pulled behind your finger.
While in flight, align the board parallel to the surface on which it should land. Directly during landing, your fingers should be above the suspension bolts.
According to fingerboarders, mastering this trick can take anywhere from a few minutes to several weeks.

Gradually, the tricks can be complicated, moving on to flips and slides. The most common flip is the Kickflip. It can be learned on the fly or without overclocking. The placement of the fingers is no different from Ollie, only the index finger should be placed closer to the edge of the finger.
Using your middle finger, make a snap like an Ollie. When taking off, you need to move your index finger downward to twist the finger. The same can be done simply by bending your index finger.
When the board has already rotated ¾ of the way, start catching the board with your fingers and land.

Slides and grinds are a category of tricks where they are all performed on edges or railings. The simplest grind is 50-50, in which both pendants slide along the edge.
When approaching the edge, at a distance of 3 centimeters from it, make an Ollie and land the finger on the edge so that the bolts of both hangers are on the edge, and the board itself is parallel to it. In this case, the weight between the suspensions should be distributed evenly.
Slide parallel to the edge and jump off the edge, there are two ways to do this. The most common is to raise the front suspension, rotate the finger about 30 degrees relative to the edge, and then use two fingers to pull the board forward without applying any force.
The second method is used only in cases when you have already reached the end of the edge. It is performed at speed: when the edge ends, do not change the position of the board, keep it parallel to the ground.

There are no age restrictions in fingerboarding. Both very young boarders and people of the older generation can do it.

The cost of the board ranges from 300 to 3000 rubles. On average, a fingerboard for beginners costs about 500 rubles.

There are several skating rules in fingerboring: when skating, sliding and performing various tricks, only two fingers (index and middle) are used; when jumping, you cannot help yourself with other fingers, including your thumb; When landing, you cannot lower your palm onto the fingerboard, or catch the board in the air and then land.
