| i would like to discuss this issue about techdecks.
why do so many people hate techdecks? they have good shape, good pop
if there were no techdecks? there is no fingerboarding?
do u like techdecks XD? i like them because they are cheap, good graphics, fun. | |

| Alright, let me say one thing, I respect techdeck, the sport would be no where if it wasnt for them. I dont really like techdeck though, I dont think they have good pop, they're too thin, and the grip wears away easily. those are just some of the flaws of the techdeck. But, i give them thanks for coming up with the idea. | |

I just don't think they like us using them because it is their product and companies modify their stuff and sell it as their own. They also may not like it because they have made their product to certain safety regulations. My guess is that tampering with their product may pose as a legal risk for them. So I sort of can't dislike them for that, but you have to understand that they aren't a fingerboard company, but rather a toy company, and I can't dislike them for not reaching out to expanding the fingerboarding scene, because it's not something they want to be a part of. | |

I just think that's true. They are a toy company that make toys for kids. I think it's funny that ppl are actually like "nice pop, nice graphics, nice etc" becuz if u use techdecks. Ur. Or fbing, ur techdecking. Yes, they brought most ppl to fbing, but they aren't a fb, they are childs toys. They are factory made by a big corporation to be sold in toy stores. I hope u guys understand what i am trying to say. |

| Tech Deck doesn't even care about the fingerboarding scene, which drives me crazy. They start fingerboarding, then try to destroy what it has become. It really just makes me ticked. Blackriver, flatface, Yellowwood, and everyone works so hard to be what they are, but Tech Deck wants those companys sued. | |

| My oppinion on this is that TechDeck is stage 1 and wooden fingerboards is a universal stage. I like there parks and stuff its just that there plastic and flimsy. there pop is okay im just not used to there pop.-Levi.R | |

| As we all should. Fingerboard love takes effort. Chris shows what's possible. He, and another guy who made a vid on UT, inspired me to make my lasted vid(currently in the works.) | |
