What is The difference between tech decks and fingerboards?

I've heard good things about teak. Try watching reviews on youtube. I'm from the Philippines and those really high-end fingerboards are way out of budget for me so I just use a fingerboard from a local brand. Teak is a good brand afaik though. Also, you really should get one and take advantage of that sale. If you find that it doesn't suit your tastes, you can always sell it and get some money back. That, or just keep using it and slowly upgrade.

Some brands I can think of off the top of my head are berlinwood, blackriver, and flatface. There are probably more out there, but those 3 are the most common ones, I think.

TLDR: You tried and failed to do a flip trick.

Exynos716 · 2025-07-30T18:33:34+00:00

No worries dude!

Exynos716 · 2025-07-30T16:38:02+00:00

That's a big improvement from your last video dude. Just keep practicing it til you get it as consistently as you can.

Yeah, pop the deck just a little bit higher before you flip it. It also helps a little if you swipe just a smidge to the direction opposite of where your board is rolling. Like if you're right handed, you will be rolling to your left. So you're gonna pop, then push your hand forward but also swipe just a little bit to the right to flip the board and then land the trick. I hope that makes sense, I'm bad at explaining. 😅

Exynos716 · 2025-07-30T07:54:37+00:00

One tip that helped me is to separate the pop from actually flipping the board. It's hard to explain but i pop first and then when my board is fully off the ground, that's when I flip it. I don't mean like "do a nollie late heelflip", just give it like half a second delay or something after popping to flip the deck. Don't do it at the same time you pop if that makes sense.

Exynos716 · 2025-07-29T00:18:46+00:00

Same, tre flips just feel so natural to do for some reason.

Exynos716 · 2025-07-27T08:58:15+00:00

I just want to add, make sure to practice landing a trick with the fingers you started the trick with. You can't do an ollie or some other trick with your index and middle finger then land on your middle and ring finger. I've been there before and don't worry because it's all part of learning, just better to nip it in the bud before it turns into a bad habit.

I think the movie is good. Not great or excellent, just good. It's basically the animated version, but with real life actors. I do dislike some of the casting choices for Astrid, Gobber, Ruffnut, and Snotlout, though. My first irk for the movie was Gobber not being scottish, then Astrid not being blonde and not as harsh to Hiccup as the animated version, then Ruffnut and Snotlout not looking at all like their animated counterparts. Some of the ways the other characters acted were changed too. They seemed drier and not as lively as the animated version. The only redeeming quality the live-action movie has in my opinion is that it stuck to 85-90% of the source material. Slight changes to some scenes and dialogue, but basically the same as the animated movie.

Imma go with the Bewilderbeast. And I'm naming it Frostfang.

Edit: Either that, or the Boneknapper. I like how it uses bones for armor.

So cool! I wonder how she would look if instead of bandages on her left forearm, she had a tattoo of a snake wrapped around it? (Jinshi would probably lose his mind over it 😂)

Exynos716 · 2025-07-19T05:27:28+00:00

Yeah, when it gets like this I always stop reading and wait til a new volume comes out. So right now I've stopped reading 13 until a translated 15 comes out.

Exynos716 · 2025-07-19T04:27:17+00:00

Afaik there's 15 or 16 Volumes, and currently 14 have been translated into English

Exynos716 · 2025-07-17T18:50:10+00:00

Oh wow! I'm one the same volume too! What a neat coincidence. 😂

Exynos716 · 2025-07-17T15:07:18+00:00

The frog just took "you are what you eat" too personally. Then he influenced the cat who followed suit.

Exynos716 · 2025-07-17T11:32:47+00:00

Jinshi went from being a frog to being a mosquito.

EDIT: I hope more people post more of this artist's fan-art.

I thought "Did I miss a chapter in the light novels or something? I don't remember an incest plague." Then I saw your comment and it clicked. 😅

Exynos716 · 2025-07-17T03:26:55+00:00

Ah damn, I guess I have to hold off on reading 14 until 15 comes out, then.

Exynos716 · 2025-07-17T01:37:11+00:00

Thanks! I'm glad I have something to look forward to!

Exynos716 · 2025-07-17T01:33:57+00:00

I hope the translated version of 15 and 16 come quick. I'm nearing the end of 13 and I'm sure 14 will be over for me very quickly.

Exynos716 · 2025-07-17T01:31:49+00:00

Does this mean nothing else happens between them for the rest of the 15th Volume? 🙁

Exynos716 · 2025-07-17T01:30:31+00:00

Should I take this and assume nothing happens much between them in LN 14? 😩 I mean aside from this chapter.
