WIPHANY FINGERBOARD FLAT RAIL

Fingerboarding is a fun micro-sport that lets you "ride" and perform tricks on a miniature skateboard with nothing but your fingers. With our steel-made flat rail, you can practice and show off skating tricks with nothing but a pocket-sized fingerboard anywhere at any time!

How to Grind

Do a basic 50-50 grind on a rail with your fingers keeping the board balanced. Perform an ollie, then catch and land the board directly onto a rail. You can use a custom-made fingerboard rail or the edge of a table or piece of wood. Use slight pressure from both fingers on each side of the board to keep it balanced and move it forward to the end of the rail. You may find it easier to keep balanced if your hand and fingers are flat, parallel to the top of the board.

Feel free to find your balance before attempting to ollie onto a rail by placing your board directly onto the rail.

Perform a 5-0 by doing an ollie onto a rail, then manual the rail. This is a bit of a trickier grind, as it combines three tracks into one. Ollie your board up, and instead of using both fingers to land the board onto the rail, just use your rear finger to apply pressure downwards. Your board will land at an angle on the rail — keep the manual going by using a continuous slight amount of pressure on the rear, and then land the trick by bringing your front finger back down on the front lip.

Do a nose grind by performing the manual backward by pressing on the front. Ollie your board into the air, but instead of applying pressure on the rear as you would with a 5-0 grind, instead bring your index finger to the nose and press down to lift the rear up. Your board will be angled at the rear, instead of at the front, and you can ride it to the end of the rail where you will put pressure back on the rear to land the board.

This is essentially a reverse 5-0 or a front-side manual performed on a rail instead of on a flat surface.

It can take a few minutes to get used to the reversed finger motions, so don't lose patience and keep trying until you nail it!
