Nineteen
I never get tired of this person's videos, not only are they always good
but in some way each one is always a little bit better than the last.
Who?
Amazing stuff here from Cody Z! I'd go as far to say as Cody's one of my favourite fingerboarders ever to watch, his videos might not be packed with fancy HD or super special editing, but he'll always not only pack a nice tune in there, but get more hammers down than you can normally fit in a video half that size. Definitely give this a fullscreen.

Yeepp
I'm pretty stoked on a video when the person is so happy with it they
basically title it 'yes'. Almost seems like that deserves some kind of
meme, haha..
Alexis R is back and it's no surprise really that this is another great video. How he manages to not only make good videos, but soo many of them, is something that continues to baffle me and many other people - but I'm far from complaining at having a lot to watch. Really great vibes in this with some perfect tricks to compliment it, it might be an overplayed song but there's no denying it's used nicely here. Don't miss it.

I Fingerboard V2
Here's someone I'm always stoked to see appear on my subscriptions list, especially when there's v2 in the title. Why?
A follow up to one of Ormani P's previous videos can only mean good things! This time he's outside with a secquel to a video he did a while ago - his style is seeming better than ever in this though and it definitely makes for some epic tricks. That ender? Nightmare flips should be done more, props to him for putting one in a combo!

Moment Of Truth
I love going to watch a video and knowing from the title that it's going to be with a good song.
Not that I actually know who this song is by, but it's got some really good vibes and makes for a perfect backing to Sergio G's hammer filled masterpiece here. He's made some awesome videos lately and this keeps up with that theme, it's nothing groundbreaking per se but one of those 'ticks all the right boxes' videos. Rad ender too!

Fast Fingers Top 3
I'm sure everyone by now has heard that Petr P took away his second big win of the year, and won Fast Fingers yesterday. But..
Have you heard the top three?
1. Petr Ptacek (CZ)
2. Alex Christ (D)
3. Valentin Leiber (D)
Now you have. Awesome stuff, rad to see last year's champion in the top three, would have been funny if he got 2nd place as then him and Petr would have just swapped places from last year. The event looked amazing nonetheless, some awesome fingerboarding - big shoutout to UK ripper and two time Crossed Fingers champion Elliot SF, going into the 2nd round (top 30 people out of 150) he was in 13th place, which is mega impressive.
The full results will be posted later when they surface, but for now you should head to BRR on instagram and check out all their pictures of the day here :)

Setup Of The Week #141
Seems like a while since one of these decks has been SOTW, so I'm glad they're back in the weekly spotlight.
Unique Split Ply Deck
BRT Wides Sally Hansen Style
Flatface Team Bushings
Flatface Dual Duro Wheels
FBS
Seriously nice looking stuff from Mallory over at Unique! She made this deck for herself and it's not only a big reminder as to why these decks are far too nice, but just something crazy nice to look at. Hidden bits of imagery inside the split as well as it just being a nice pattern, and you know being this matched with all this hardware that it'll ride just as nice as it looks. A clear winner!

NEW WORLD CHAMPION
Congratulations to Petr Ptacek, he is our new world champion! Pulling a Dimitri move from 2011, he won both BATH and Fast Fingers in the same year - nice after him being known as the guy who always came second. Petr rips, soo stoked for you Petr!
I'll have a more complete round up tomorrow morning - for now I hope everyone else enjoyed Fast Fingers be it on the live stream or in person :)
Fast Fingers 16 Today!
As if any of you guys need reminding, today is the world championships,
Fast Fingers 16. The 6th world championship. For those of you like
myself who aren't lucky enough to be there?
Here's the livestream! If you want somewhere to chat about it, head to FBHQ and go on the chat, I'm sure there will be many fingerboarders there throughout the day watching the livestream and sharing suggestions of who'll win. Unfortunately I cant be with you guys watching it all day, I've got a super busy day that unfortunately has nothing to do with fingerboarding - much as I wish I could be in Germany right now. If you guys could feel how wrong I feel not being there? It's like being really dirty, I imagine I kind of feel like a stripper right now, haha..
Seriously though, have a rad time to everyone who's at Fast Fingers - may the best fingerboarder win! To all my UK friends who are there, do us proud!
The stream normally starts at 11am German time. For now, go check Fast Fingers here :)

Berlinwooding All Night #3
I just called the dictionary people and they said Berlinwooding was a word. Which definitely happened, by the way. Honest.
Fells once again descends on our screens with some Berlinwooding! He got himself a new Berlinwood, one of my favourite graphics too, I love simple graphics like this. Looks like it makes for some nice riding too, and when it's mixed with Fells' usual chill vibes, super flowy style, the result is a beautiful minute and a half you don't want to miss. Fullscreen it!

Woob
Ever since once of these decks won SOTW recently, I've been super stoked on them. Soo..
It's sick to see some footage on one of them, especially when it's from Chuck P! Apparently he's not uploaded a fingerboard video for 11 months. ELEVEN. Does not seem that long, but I've definitely missed his videos. Drop a comment on it so he knows he's awesome and remembers to film again soon, we all need creativity like this in our lives, haha..

Special Effects
I'm not going to spoil the special effects here, because they're just too mindblowing for words.
And it's at this point you realise there aren't any special effects. Maybe it's just the 'I just woke up' syndrome, but I find that too funny not to share - well, that and the fact that Johan O kills it here as always. Maybe not with much, but that style? Well worth oogling at.

OG Fades
Fade decks are one of those things that when done nicely, and amazing. Do these fall into that category?
Unfortunately this is just a preview of what's to come rather than being a huge stock announcement, but still.. OG fade decks? Looking really nice even if the picture isn't the best quality - I love when fades end up having a bunch of different colours that all appear depending on what way you look at it. Kind of like pearlescent (which if I recall someone made a deck with once), except a lot more natural looking. Get stoked for when these come out!
