(about Fingerboarding: German)
Ein Fingerboard ist ein Miniaturskateboard, das mit dem Zeige- und Mittelfinger gefahren wird. Fingerboarding ist eine relativ junge Funsportart, bei der es, ähnlich wie beim Skateboarding, darum geht bestimmte Flip-und Grindtricks zu machen bzw. miteinander zu kombinieren. Die Tricks werden gleich benannt wie im Skateboarding. Der Feinmotorik-Sport, in dem man Fingerspitzengefühl gut gebrauchen kann, gewinnt an Beliebtheit in den USA, Frankreich, Österreich, der Schweiz, England, Osteuropa und neuerdings in der Türkei.
Dem entsprungen sind zahlreiche Wettbewerbe (Contests) und Treffen (Jams) in allen größeren Städten Deutschlands sowie im näheren Ausland. Außerdem erschienen schon mehrere Fingerboardvideos. Die Anfänge des Fingerboardings waren in den 1970er Jahren, als die ersten Artikel zu diesem Thema in Skateboardzeitschriften erschienen.
Bereits Anfang der 80er Jahre wurde Fingerboarding in Magazines und Skateboard-Videos gezeigt. Besonders erwähnt werden muss hier Powell Peraltas Teamfahrer Lance Mountain, der bereits im Bones Brigade Video von 1985 einen eigenen Run auf seinem selbstgebauten Fingerboard hatte. Mit diesem Selfmade-Fingerboard fuhr er einen Oldschool-Run in einem Metall-Waschbecken.
English:Fingerboards started as homemade toys in the 1970s and later became a novelties attached to key chains in skate shops.In the 1985 documentary "Future Primitive" a homemade fingerboard was ridden in a sink; some consider this the earliest fingerboard footage available for public viewing. The homemade fingerboard was built from cardboard, coffee stirrers, and Hot Wheels axles.Fingerboards have been a peripheral part of the skateboarding industry since the late 1980s and were originally marketed as keychains." Although barely "rideable" they were improved upon by the Tech Decks brand which mass produced a "rideable" miniature skateboard.The first entertainment licensed fingerboards were introduced by Bratz Toys, released through a Hong Kong-based toy company named Prime Time Toys, and designed by PANGEA,the company that helped develop "The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" toy line for Playmates Toys. The designs were harnessed from entertainment properties such as "Speed Racer," "Woody Woodpecker," "NASCAR," "Heavy Metal," and "Crash Bandicoot." The licensed boards drove the Tech Deck brand into licensing strong urban brands (rather than simoply making up cool designs). Suddenly, brands popped-up on fingerboards, ranging from famous real-sized skateboards to sneakers. The phenomenon was milked for four years heavily -- and the market controlled expertly by the distributors of Tech Deck. Entertainment brands couldn't compete agains the urban juggernaut and eventually disappeared. Other "major players in the skateboard industry" soon followed in hopes of reaping profits as young toy-playing children would choose to take up skateboarding.More modern fingerboards, like X-Concepts' Tech Decks, Think's Super Mini Boards, the Deluxe Finger Banger Boards, and Fingerboard brand's Pro-Precision boards, featured "interchangeable wheels and trucks, a fairly accurate scale size, and pad-printed graphics reproduced from the most popular skateboard companies in the business."Blackriver Ramps' Fingerboardparks providing all manner of fingerboarding accessories including sophisticated and customizable components able to duplicate, in scale-model, the skateboarding experience thus developing the fingerboard into a collectible toy and the practice into a "form of mental skating".In the late 1990s, as fingerboards became more prominent outside the skateboading community, X-Concepts' Tech Decks licensed "actual pro graphics from major skateboard brands" riding "the 1999 fingerboard wave right into Wal-Mart and other major outlets." In 1999 there was a Tech Deck fashion of collecting one of each design similar to the Beanie Baby fad months prior.
