Records in skateboarding - human creativity has no limits
In the era of skateboarding records, skaters are finding new ways to prove themselves every single day. Some of them jump high, others invent new disciplines and set up records. If you want to be the best, you need to sacrifice yourself. Whether it is about your creativity or your special skill, earning the place in the hall of fame is never easy.

There are really many things you can perform with a fingerboard. Not only it puts your imagination to the maximum limits, but it also gives you the power to invent new things.
