Wilkes on "Aussie TV"1

“Hey guys!
Just thought I would share something with you all real quick…
One of my favourite things about Fingerboarding is growing the sport by showing people boards, tricks, culture. Tech Deck sell a huge amount of fingerboards in Australia yet there are very few people that know how to do tricks or know that there are so many other great companies and products out there. So I got in contact with the Marketing Manager of Tech Deck in Australia and asked if I could help them organise some events in shopping centres etc.
Well… They were more than willing to co-operate and had me send through some ideas and video clips from Youtube. The next morning I had a voicemail on my phone from Teck Deck asking If I was interested in a TV opportunity! I got back to them and TWO DAYS later I was on the “Kids WB” show in a segment for “Finding Australia’s Tech Deck Champion”. My role was to talk a little bit about Fingerboarding and then do some trick tutorials.
It was a great experience for me personally, I had a lot of fun. I am really hoping that it will help a few kids gain interest in the Sport/Hobby and enjoy it as much as we all do.
It airs over the next three weeks. So, for those of you in Australia check out Kids WB on the Channel 9 “Go” every Sunday morning starting at 7am!!!!!
Enjoy Fingerboarding.“
