About us
APPROVED.
That’s the word we shout for every product that makes it into our shop — because everything we sell has been tested, trusted, and approved by real fingerboarders. From beginners to pros, we’ve got your back.
At Approved Fingerboard Shop, our mission is simple: to grow and support the fingerboard community.
To us, fingerboarding isn’t just a hobby. It’s a culture, a creative outlet, and a lifestyle, filled with the same passion, flow, and attitude as skateboarding itself.
OUR MISSION.
Fingerboarding deserves more love.
Here in Belgium, the scene is alive, but something was missing: a real home for fingerboarders. A space built by someone who truly understands the grind, the tricks, the spots, the setups.
That’s why Approved Fingerboard Shop exists:
- to supply you with the best fingerboard gear out there, all approved by our crew.
- to support and connect the Belgian fingerboard community.
- to give fingerboarding the recognition it deserves as a creative sport and lifestyle.
In short: for the love of the scene.
ABOUT THE FOUNDER
Tom, aka The Sick Skater, is the driving force behind Approved Fingerboard Shop.
He’s been skating since the age of six, but over time, an autoimmune condition made skating physically harder, so he picked up fingerboarding again. What started as a small alternative soon turned into a full-blown passion.
Through his TikTok and Instagram content, Tom shares that same passion with the world: testing products, exploring spots, and shining a light on the fingerboard community.
In 2025, he decided to take things to the next level and launched Belgium’s first fingerboard webshop, a space built for quality gear, community, and creativity.
