FBTV Interview – Adrian Witzel0
October 29, 2010 by MartinB. | 10:20 am
Hello Adrian! Tell us about who you are, where you’re from and what’s your daily business.
– Hey, I’m Adrian and I’m 17 years old. I live in Bochum, Germany, where I’m going to school and will have my graduation in one year. As I am on holiday at the moment, I hang around a lot or go meet my friends. I like travelling …and I got around a lot. I also love to play the guitar, to cut and edit videos, I like to build ramps for my park, longboarding, painting or just something that has to do with art. Last but not least: I love to fingerboard whenever I can!
How did you get in touch with fingerboarding?
– I guess my cousin showed me how to fingerboard around 6 years ago or something. So, yeah, that was the moment I started fingerboarding. And as you can see I’m still doin’ that shit, it is lot of fun! : )
Every now and then, i discover new sides of fingerboarding and I would declare it as my lifestyle! For me, Fingerboarding is also a way, to be creative!
What’s your current setup?
– My current Setup is a 32mm/flatshape Berlin Wood (red wood/ Brr-Skull branding/ plies: grey, yellow, purple, blank, red) with red Blackriver Trucks (+ auto block nuts) and Winkler Wheels BRR edition.
What is your favorite trick?
– I don’t really have a favourite trick, but at the moment I like to pull some No-Comply FS Shove-its, Switch 360 BS Pop Shove-its, Inward Heelflips, Bodyvarial stuff, Switch Bigger Bigspins and some nicely catched Nollie Flips.
Nosebonks (Nollie Shove-its out) are steezy, too ^^.
Do you have any favorite rider or a video that influenced you?
– Hmm, I really appreciate the style of Dietschi and I also like Julien’s and Nic’s type of Style/way to ride or Winklers Vert-skills, but I don’t want to copy any of them … so nobody influenced me – they just inspired me. I want to have a unique own style!
Which fingerboard experience did you like best? (contest/jam/session)?
– Blackriver 10 years Party, or just any party/event/jam in Wunsiedel. Wunsiedel is so beautiful and the best place to chill and to have fun!
I also liked the Kasselostbowlmasters, ‘cause the guys in Kassel are so nice and welcoming! It’s always a bit of magic in the air when you have a session in the woods of Kassel!
And finally, do you want to thank someone?
– Yeah why not! First of all I want to thank the whole Blackriver Team for all the support; and than I say ‘’thanks’’ to all fingerboarders outside there, who are making the whole fingerboarding-thing, the way it is today.
Go outside and skate a real FINGERBOARD.
THX Adrian!
