[English] IFV #16 (Introduce Fingerboarding Video)

by LAZYPIPE 2024. 6. 21.

Today's fingerboard video to introduce is

Mike Schneider's 'Flatface Fingerboards and Blackriver-Ramps'

 

 

This video is from October 15, 2009.


'Flatface's beginning..'

It's a video that many people have seen, enough to be considered the start of Flatface.

Flatface's iconic two-tone deck
in TURQUOISE color wheels..

Since then, two-tone decks have become very popular worldwide..

Even in the early days of Korea's fingerboarding community team..
There are still many people who like two-tone.

So on the official Flatface website
Two-tone decks are sold for $4 more.

TURQUOISE color wheels too

It can be said that Flatface's representative color.

Flatface Fingerboards' two-tone, TURQUOISE color..

Why is it so popular?

When you think about it,
Mike Schneider has been using YouTube steadily since 2006 to the present.

Before short forms like smartphones, Instagram, reels, shorts, TikTok came out,
Before YouTube became so active that it could generate revenue,
He has uploaded fingerboard videos to YouTube.

If you were interested in fingerboards at that time,
When you searched for Fingerboard on YouTube,
It's easy to imagine that you could see Mike Schneider's videos.

(I did the same.)


On top of that,

In Mike Schneider's videos
Blackriver's large fingerboard parks, Big Mini, etc.
You could see fingerboard facilities on an enormous scale.

Of course, I had to click on the video,
Mike Schneider's fingerboard skills,
I think shooting and editing played a big part.

I miss the sentiment of that time.
I recommend this video.
