Hello Eddie! Tell us about who you are, where you from and whats your daily business.

Hey! My name is Eddie Sharples, and im from Widnes England. At the moment i am working at ”Royal Mail” on a VERY short contract :-( so i wont have a job soon.

How do you get in touch with fingerboarding?

I mostly use alot of internet forums e.g. FFI, FBHQ, and blogs like FBTV and UNITEFINGERBOARDING.

Whats your current setup?

At the moment i have 2 main set-ups:

Right:
Redemption No-comply (my model trucks) No-comply ” Foamygreatness” tape WW Hansen Manson.

What is your favorite trick?

It changes every week! At the moment i would have to say 360 flips.

Do you have any favorite rider or a video that influenced you?

– Iv always been influanced by the likes of Eric Smith, Martin Illsley, Estevan Rivera, Euan Lynn, Martin Winkler, Thom Mcinally, Danny Rodriguez, and all the old full lenghts like the Vegas videos.

Which fingerboard experience you liked the most (contest/jam/session)?

The British scene is really coming along lately, and there are some good meet-ups happening, UKR1/2 were really fun! and recently me,Thom and a few others all met up in Manchester and that ended up being really amazing too. You can watch the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9-DTySeIbQ
