Gem State Finger Skate, Based in Nampa, Idaho, was born from a lifelong passion for fingerboarding and skateboarding.
Founder Brandon Loureiro, (@TheTrashPanda_fb), got into fingerboarding in the late '90s, took a hiatus, and returned to riding for brands like Tech Deck, Teak Tuning, and Deli decks. Today, he's focused on building a fingerboard community in the Treasure Valley through local pop-ups, skate shop partnerships, and custom-made parks, obstacles, decks, and more. Gem State Finger Skate celebrates the creative spirit of fingerboarding and invites enthusiasts of all ages to join the movement.
