That Honk Guy?!
sick
I'm so excited next week then
You have very nice hair
Hi
I would love to see a “I spent a day with Anthony Padilla”? Basically you sitting down, interviewing yourself and telling us what you have learnt from this series and all of the different people
Holy shit. This is the best comment
this
Yes please. Love this
YES PLEASE
Would love that too
But i want that to happen on 6 million milestone
This was amazing!!! I had so much fun, thanks again for having me on the show :)
it was an honor to have you on, legend!
You are awesome mike
I used to fingerboard. You’re a legend!
@@AnthonyPadilla I think I forgot my coconut water there! Dude, awesome job on the intro too with the sound effects THPS style, loved that!
I’m so glad to see you in this video.
I really appreciate that Anthony filmed this episode after spilling a whole cup of coffee on his shirt. Such dedication.
nothing was going to stop me. not even third degree burns on 90% of my torso.
Vitiligo people would be a cool "spend a day with"
@@AnthonyPadilla that’s exactly what I thought I went did he spill coffee?
@@kiwifruitbird7 I thought it was the style of the shirt lol
@@Nicole-tv7hy Same. Just like skateboarding hit the mainstream, broken clothes did and now apparently also (seemingly) dirty clothes? I really wonder if it is indeed branded clothing
Fingerboarding has helped me through a dark time. I used to be a 100% die hard skateboarder, it was my life, I lived and breathed skating. I had been skating for about 22ish years and I was hit with a bunch of shit all at once, I got this severe deadly lung infection and came within a day of actually dying. Because of the sickness I lost around 70lbs including my muscle mass that I had developed from skateboarding for so long. Once I was out of the hospital and starting to get healthy again I started skating again, pushing around, trying to build my muscles back up. That didn't last long cause about 3 or 4 days into that I completely blew my right knee out. Mcl, pcl, and acl, destroyed. Now I couldn't even walk. It was one of those "career ending" injuries. Well while rehabilitating from that, my other knee blew out... how ironic lol
Anyways, I can't skate anymore, like physically can't do it, and it was the saddest thing I've ever experienced. I found fingerboarding, and it has filled some of that empty hole that losing skateboarding, the love of my life caused. I never would've thought something could help like this, but it has.
this is an amazing story, I wish you luck man hope you’re doing alright
Mike Schneider is an actual legend in their community, not just for skill/talent but mainly for his contribution to the craft
He's an og still pushing the limits of fingerboarding
yes, shoutout him he’s a true pioneer
def a rare niche linkup. love 2 see it.
I love how Anthony treats his guests with respect, even if the subject matter might seem "silly" or weird to outsiders. I have to admit, even I was like "seriously?" when I read the announcement last week-- but seeing it in action and hearing these people talk about it, I get it now. And honestly, it's a harmless passion. If they're having fun, who cares? Life's hard enough without judging someone over something like fingerboarding.
I'm understanding with a ton of stuff. The only thing I have a hard time understanding is trans people and I hope Anthony get them on here.
@@MicahangeloYT have you seen his video with non binary people? They kinda talk about it on that video I believe if you want to learn. & there’s tons of trans you tubers out there who document their experiences for education purposes. :)
@@MicahangeloYT thank you for being willing to learn & understand instead of just being hateful. I think a lot of people are rude about things they don’t understand because they feel “dumb” & nobody likes to feel uneducated. That’s what’s amazing about the internet though you can learn probably anything you want on here I think it’s so cool.
@@valkyriesommers420 That's true but also you could get false information as well, it's a double edge sword
@@MicahangeloYT yeah you’re right, I think that’s the most annoying. I hate trying to educate myself & then not knowing if the info is true or false.
me: “is this really real?? i could do that in my sleep.”
*5 minutes later: my index finger has a broken fucking ankle.*
🤣
😂😂😂
Boi 😂😂😂
IM IN TEARS😭
i can say i now have 2 less fingers
Ah, finally something that I don’t have to pay EA for to gamble my money away on skateboard crates
Bruh what's this gotta do with EA. EA sucks but the EA bad circlejerk gets annoying as well.
Lol
HAHA🤣🤣
you're killing me shorthax 😂
why are you everywhere
Man, mikes smile when he talks about picking up the hobby as a kid and starting his website, is just so infectious. You can honestly tell that all three of them are so excited to talk about the sport. This video was super fun overall.
I really got into finger-boarding around 2013. It’s a great community and a great way for skateboarders to continue to “skate” when the weather is bad or during injuries.
I love how they play and handle the boards, *it's so satisfying to watch*
thats what she said
I didn’t even know that pro fingerboarding was a thing but this is incredible!
So you never heard of techdecks
NO! NO! NO! Many people say I am sick in the head. NOOOO!!!! I don't believe them. But there are so many people commenting this stuff on my videos, that I have 1% doubt. So I have to ask you right now: Do you think I am sick in the head? Thanks for helping, my dear iri
Love your profile picture!
@@AxxLAfriku
what
@@AxxLAfriku tf
So stoked to see our shop and brand have a cameo! Come by anytime man we had a blast!
I was so excited to see the brand! I have a beanie on the way as we speak.
seeing the storefront made me happy, but seeing you had a whole skater in the video was next level. so stoked for you and the team! 🙏🏻
:0
This kinda makes me wanna pick it back up again, haven’t finger boarded in years. Still have all my blackriver ramps and shit, just no boards.
Definitely bro. I’m 23 and it’s a great passtime when I’m in the house doing chores and bored at work
I need to get a New fingerboard!! This is great
Am I the only one who gets a blurred part of the video from 5:34 to 5:45 and from 6:06 to 6:08, as well?
And then again from 10:03 to 10:13... Everything else works well, so I have no idea what the hell is going on.
My assumption is they filmed the making process, but later decided they didn't want to show it? But then idk why they wouldn't just not put that cut of blurred footage in
Same here man, it’s strange.
He must’ve been showing Mike schniders crafting process which Mike does not like to be shown. Must’ve been blurred in late development
Maybe it's for member's only?
dude ever since i was a little kid i loved making tiny environments, making the parks for these skaters would be so fun
I know. I wish i could afford some decent tools and supplies. I want to build something like this so bad.
Ha same! I'm an amature but I enjoy making backgrounds for figures & dolls. Maybe that would be a good group of people to focus on, tiny world's?
I also enjoy people who create & photograph tiny world's, wether it's Lego or that guy who created scenes from those little railway figures with everyday household items, I can't remember his name unfornutly.
@@NotAnotherKuromi fingerboarders love fuckin miniaturist
Yes make parks for finger boarders at a high quality and we will buy them
@@heroicsquirrel3195 swearrr, i have a $700 park pretty much
This is great to see, I’m 31 and got back into fingerboarding at the first of the year. It’s seriously become one of my biggest stress relievers. Glad to see it getting some more mainstream traction.
“and emotionally stunted adults”
i- i can’t 😂😭💀
I've been fingerboarding for 10 years and skateboarding for for 15 years. Its a great scene, and really rewarding! Landing a trick on a fingerboard has the same sense of accomplishment i have landing a trick on a skateboard! I've met great people from all over and all walks of life,just cause I have 34 millimeter sheets of wood under my fingers
Okay but the mom helping her son's business is so cute
Ok this is epic!!
hi david
hell yeah! you should have been in this one! 😂 😂
lol why weren't you in this video?
sup david
Hii
I might not understand this as an interest but I'm happy for these folks! They look like they're having fun and that they really like what they're doing.
It’s a lot of fun 🤟
There’s like over 500,000 people that do it
Anyone can do anything that makes them happy and you don’t need to understand it
@@tvictorio21 He was not alluding the need to understand it, there is nothing to refute, chill.
@@miloslazic3636 unhelpful
My favorite part is the creativity of building absolutly everything from scratch. I love carving out my own boards and the process of painting them and making obstacles and parks and trying out different materials and learning new things from others in the community
Dude, I watched Anthony since Smosh started back in the 2000’s and now I find him again creating amazing content among all the trash that people post nowadays. He is really one of TH-cam’s GOAT’s.
hahah what thats him????
Tom brady retired yesterday...
He really is!
I agree! Play is so so important. When I was little I wanted to be a trapeze lady. Now as an adult I’ve been using yoga trapeze and aerial silks to reunite with my childhood dreams. It’s so fun, I get lost for hours in ‘play’
I genuinely didn’t know their was an “community” for finger boarding. And that one could be a “pro”. I’m especially surprised by it still being a thing- I would believe it if it was a thing 10+ years ago. Nothing wrong! I welcome it, i’m just surprised 🙈
I wonder if, like a lot of more.noeche hobbies, social media has helped connect people, so help it build a stronger community?
anyone can go pro at something if you're good enough
@@NotAnotherKuromi yeah it’s completely built on Instagram
More like 30 y.ago
Something I would love seeing is "I spent a day with balisong flippers" It's a community that doesn't get enough recognition.
I’ve been binge watching your series and I appreciate how open minded you are. I wish more people were open minded like you Anthony :)
Please make a video with penspinners! I am a penspinner, and it's so interesting! The history and the culture is insane! I can also advice a person to talk to - Alex Sukhov (channel Pen Stock)
Pen spinning? Lmao i thought fingeboarding was lame
YES DUDE OH MY GOD PLEASE
Fingerboarding is super frustating and hard in the beginning because you never practise the fine and precise motions with your fingers. A lot of people give up trying to Ollie after a minute. Once you get kickflips down everything becomes a lot easier and more enjoyable.
absolutely loved this video, longtime fingerboarder since i was a child. i'm in my early twenties now, and although i don't fingerboard as often as i used to, or don't really attend the events anymore (wanna change that soon), i still ALWAYS have a fingerboard lingering around. right now its a flatface g15 splitply with black blackriver trucks and g4 BRR edition wheels. thank you for this anthony, loved the OG smosh videos and your new content
What they described as their feelings while they fingerboards, I can relate while doing my Rubik’s cube
Really helps my anxiety too, people should value these more 💕
It'd be cool if Anthony did an episode on rubiks cube solvers.
@@comicaltuber it'd be awesome! thanks for the comment, brought tears to my eyes cause no one ever talks about the cube!
I agree with you. When I start cubing, I get lost in my own little world. PB is 18s
@@james8164 Dope! My pb is 10.81 secs. My average is around 16-18 seconds!
@@bestnarryever ^
Back in High School everybody had those and it's insane how clumsy and not being able to do proper tricks everyone was. It's really not easy and looks so awesome when you see ppl who are skilled.
I love how you give the two options in the beginning in a sincere tone but are really just roasting the haters in advance.
Nice to see Mike & Anthony in the same room two OGs I grew up watching
I lover fingerboarding its so goofy but looks so cool at the same time
If you’re gonna continue with skill toys in this series, I highly suggest Yoyos. I bet Gentry Stein would be down.
@Ernie Uchiha I didn’t say they were the same, they just fall under the skill toy category just like fingerboards.
And rubik’s cube. I mean speedcubing.
@Ernie Uchiha they seem kinda similar to me
Yesssss!
what about kendamas? that would be very interesting to see
The hispanic dude seems like a really chill person that would be a great friend. You should keep doing interviews with pros at hobbies like these, maybe do an episode with pro cubers? You should definitely interview @Jperm
i know it’s not like necessarily wrong, but kinda weird that you referred to him by his race
@@jdinsomniac7504 he just didnt know the name doesnt matter
This is the coolest and uncoolest job I’ve ever seen
Hey anthony, i just wanna tell you about a very niche group of people: speedcubers. We are people who try and solve the rubiks cube as fast as possible (official world record is 3.47 seconds). It may be a fun group to look into interviewing :)
I am mad at TH-cam for not recomending me this.
This is incredible! I had no idea this was a thing. These guys are so so skilled. My husband just told me that these eventually got banned at his school, but they found a way to make their own finger skateboards out of layers of paper, sand paper and other materials to create the wheels etc. Love the creativity!
Me at 1:45 🕺 Aww yisss
Damn! That's some talent right there
whats funny is that skateboarding and action sports were all seen as stupid, nonsense, a waste of time. But theses type of artistic sports are, well artistic, and are respected by enough people. legitimacy is determined by the people, we can make anything we want legitimate, and I appreciate the legitimacy of all board sports. It really brings more love and light to these arts.
My favorite part about fingerboarding is the artistic expression it has similar to skateboarding, but easier! You can construct a skatepark out of real wood, metal and concrete for a highly detailed miniature train like experience, or just a bunch of random household objects and office supplies to get that 6th grade nostalgia going. Fingerboards are so much smaller and easier to make that doing fun graphics, colored wood plys, and funky shapes it’s a wonderland of creativity.
I love how kickflips are just as visually satisfying with fingerboards as they are with skateboards
You should do “spending a day with maladaptive daydreamers”
FRRR
!!!!
Yes!!!! I would love to hear other people's experiences
agreed
Still remember those og finger board tech decks days ❤️❤️😘😘
can someone explain to me why there was a blurred section at 5:34-5:45 ?
Love that Mike is pretty much the fingerboarding Tony Hawk lmao
The noise annoyed my parent so much…haha memories.
Holy shit I suggested this such long time ago and now he finally did it. Nice to see it man.
Why are there parts blurred out?
i was just thinking that
i thought this was a joke but this is so cute idk i love these people i didn't know this was a thing
You should have an interview with literal rocket scientists or someone from NASA, if you haven't already. Could be fun
I second this 👌🏻
I imagine it'd be a little hard to get in touch with them
I was friends with a couple who were rocket scientists, sadly after the husband passed away the wife moved to be closer to her daughter, so we aren't in touch as much. They were lovely, kind, funny people, they were a lot weirder than I expected, I had a stereotype of nerdy science people in mind, not reality. I think it would be a great group of people to focus on.
@@an3stn196 Why? They are just regular people.
I have school now but I WILL WATCH THIS LATER, seems very interesting, thank you Anthony for always making very interesting and diverse content
Reminder for you to watch this :)
Another reminder for you to watch this :)
Have you watched yet? :)
@Zataya Jenkins @Petalmist @Roozyj
Hi guys!! Thank you so SO much for the reminder!! 💚💚
I did a lot of stuff today, school, getting vaccinated with the russian vaccine, homework, cleaning, then I got the side effects but now I'm better, so I watched the video and It's a really good one!!
I love when Anthony tries people's hobbies/professions to learn how it feels being in their shoes, it's something that really shows how open minded and empathetic he is and also proof how much passion and hardwork people put in their things.
Also he got really good people to interview, I think I learnt very healthy lessons out of it. Allowing yourself to play and do stuff you like without thinking if it is a "grown up" thing is something that can bring so much joy!! I experience this drawing, watching cartoons and playing videogames, it's really good for the mind just to disconnect and do something fun.
Like I said, this is a really good video and I think a lot of people need to learn to be free and do things cause they like it, not because how much money or things you can make with it. And lastly I think I understand the amazing world of fingerboarding just a little bit more ;)
I NEVER knew this was a real thing. I do remember these back in the days when I was young but I never knew this was still a thing and a PRO Fingerboarders exist. That's awesome! Good for you!
no fucking way yo, i aint watched smosh in like 8 years but ive been fingerboarding and skating like 8 years. Super cool to see anthony looking at the sport seriously.
and he got mike schneider!
I Spend A Day With My Best Friend, and it's just Anthony and Ian having a conversation at a diner/bar catching up lol
I know you’ll never see this but it’s 4am and I haven’t been able to fall asleep for several days now. Been reminiscing about all the Smosh vids you made and how big of a part they were in my childhood. Just wanted to say thanks for giving me those memories. Hopefully my insomnia fix’s itself.
I've been suffering with insomnia too the past few days. Hope you doing better, its hell
You are amazing Anthony !!!
I love your work,
Have a good day :)
Pakyu
Anthony, since you're talking about "play" as adults, you should consider talking to LARPers! That's basically a whole hobby and community based on immersion and play
I wish they interviewed weak fingers! He was an og back in the early fingerboard scene on TH-cam. Great video though I love fingerboarding and I’m so glad it’s getting positive exposure
You could have spent a day with pro artists, musicians, dancers, athletes, gamers even!
That’s why this channel has such a special place in my heart❤️ keep doing the thing dude!
The way I was kickin my little legs off the side of my bed while Nash was attempting the record!! Was not expecting that today hahaha
Yo!! One of the smoosh boys!! What a trip down memory lane...
Those two questions at the beginning remind me of those science safety tests in school that are like:
One of your classmates broke a beaker. What should you do?
A - Call for a teacher
B - Eat the glass
Still have my wooden fingerboard next to me from when I was 14. Lots of fun was had with this thing. Usually it was used for fidgeting when waiting in videogame lobbys or watching videos.
Hey since you are doing fingerboarding, I reccomend you do one with Speedcubers! They have a whole community of solving Rubiks cubes and possibly meet a world record holder like Feliks Zemdegs or Mats Valk!
“I spent a day with small content creators” would be an interesting one! Questions such as what made you start, what pushes you to carry on etc etc
NO WAY I'VE NEVER THOUGHT YOU'D MADE ONE OF THESE
"sometimes existing is exhausting" lol
i feel that in my soul
Would like to see how many kickflips mike could do in 30 seconds.
I'm not into fingerboarding now, but I was when I was a kid, and one thing I remember well is that Mike was the shit, he had a youtube channel and a small company that made decks, it truly motivated me to grab a board and start doing tricks. Its incredible to see how far him and the community have come
Hi
Give me back my soul, checkmark
Goodbye
I really thought this would be not of interest to me but your interview style made me watch till the end. Thanks again Anthony!
wish i could do a fakie bigger spin
I can only fakie biggerspin flip
You probably could, its a pretty easy trick
@Notthefallssorcererofbeto !2whyme its just a 540 shuv it with a 180 hand turn, i learnt it before kickflips
@Notthefallssorcererofbeto !2whyme no, i just said fakie bigger spins are easy
I know this video Is a year old but watching content like this makes me happy I've stayed subbed for all these years. I remember watching you from Smosh when I was In middle and highschool and now that you're all grown up and so am I, It's so cool to see how you're growing as a person with your own channel and Including so much diversity and education about different people and perspectives on your channel. Love your videos man, keep up the amazing work! 🙌🏾💯
Why is it blurred?
I'm assuming copyrights from FlatFace. Made sense when they blurred out the production process of making a deck
This is one of my favorite videos in the interview series for sure! It was so colorful and entertaining! These people are soooo cool. 😎
Bruh these people are so talented they literally have more skill in two of their fingers than I do in my whole body
ya, with that kinda attitude lol
You should do I spent a day with freerunners
1:13 Aww, that noise it makes when you do a super move trick. It brings back so much memories from Tony Hawks pro skater games
long live fingerboarding! I started about 2 years ago and really enjoy it! Its my own version of fidget spinner. My job is phone based so I always have a fingerboard next to me with a little obstacle so whenever conversation becomes boring or I need a bit of distraction.
"TECH DECK DUDES!!!"
Nostalgic AF
this was so cool to see bc I started finger boarding recently, I've learned some of the basics and I can do a pop shuv on my finger board which is indeed a techdeck from a fidget shop lol
*At this point this guy literally spent a day with everyone!*
Started fingerboarding about 3 years ago, and I can say that it is one of my favorite pass time/hobbies I've ever picked up...
I spent a day with people that are diagnosed with "anti social personality disorder (aspd)" formally known as sociopathy I believe. These people are so misrepresented in the media and I would love to hear their side and it would be a very interesting topic
This is a great topic!
I cant do that with my fingers
Goodbye
Ey
The 'first 'guy
Hi
It’s the first guy
YOO finally fingerboarders getting the attention they deserve
Fr fr
Lol not everyone can do things with their fingers lol
Damn man, I don't know how the algorithms made this video pop up on my feed, BUT AWESOME MAN! I used to fingerboard back in the day, and I haven't thought about it and many years. I love the attention you give to the subject you are covering, I'm subscribing and looking forward to your other videos ✌️🤘
I love how they thought fingerboarding was an interesting theme to cover😭😭
Maybe it’s fun to spend a day with professional super smash brothers players, that community has gone through a lot and I think it would be interesting if you could talk to the best/most popular players of the game.
So basically interviewing "professional gamers"
Reaaally good video and it brought up a surprisingly good and important aspect of life and happiness in the fact that we as humans need to get to play to help with mental and physical health💙
4:28 Mike looks so stoked for him it's super wholesome
I'm actually really glad finger boarding is getting popular. I remember me and my buddies bringing tech deck to our school and using our binders for ramps and rails lol. Good times.
I loved this, like everybody is chill
I didn't know this was a thing! That's badass and impressive 😆
That was so much fun to watch and super impressive. My husband and I used to try finger boarding. My husband got decent at it. I don't have the hand eye coordination for it, but I enjoy watching it!
