I’m excited! I used to skate sometimes, mostly longboard but then my disability hit and can’t skate. This sounds like a fun way to get some skate on and also fidget during work meetings.

That’s why I love it! I’ll still skate sometimes, but when you get older it’s hard to push around all day and hit the pavement lol.

just want to clarify too, these are only decks. You’d need to still pick up the trucks and wheels. I have some links for inexpensive but still quality components.

Here’s some links to inexpensive fingerboard trucks I can vouch for:

> **[MONSTR TRUX](https://www.zegheads.com/collections/trucks/products/monster-trux)**
>
> Scary Cheap Fingerboard Trucks! Need some budget-friendly trucks that aren’t straight trash? Monster Trux are here to save the day (and your wallet)! Whether you’re a noob or a seasoned shredder, these trucks bring you that smooth, stable feel...

You can also find some good ones on that super popular shopping website that rhymes with “mamazon”. Same goes for the wheels. No need to break the bank on components when just starting out or testing the waters.

Proxxon mini tools are awesome. My dad has their mini table saw and mini miter saw, which he uses for restoring old guitars.

I’ve only sold on eBay so far. If I had more time to put into it I might try to make something more official. I’m currently messing around with making graphics for them and I’ll post them on here when I have a chance.

My favorite grip is “That Tape”. There’s tons of other brands too like “YRRRRR Tape” and “Dungeon Crawl” tape I’ve heard good things about. Here’s a link to “That Tape” is anyone’s interested:

> It's not that tape, it's That Tape!!! We are so proud to present our new professional fingerboard grip tape That Tape™. This 1mm foam tape feels like nothing else on the market, it is super grippy and ready to shred the minute you set it up! The 3M...

I did include tape with @AudreySickburn ’s though since I know it’s not readily apparent you’d need that too.
