This may be rather stupid, and bash it if you like. But if enough members fingerboard in their spare time, then maybe this could happen. You'd be given a list of tricks to complete and film (I.E. ollie, kickflip, smith grind, ect.) and they would be judged on how well you preformed the tricks, as in if they were sketchy and what not. If anyone's interested please post tricks for the list (nothing too insane, as I don't think anyone can turn their wrist more than 180 degrees, some not even that much) and nothing to out landish like 900 triple flips or other tricks that couldn't be done accurately, only by mad flipping the board.

Sorry dude, I'm anxious; plus I don't do the skating for the skate hunt, I just enjoy filming my friends doing the tricks and editing. I got skills at tech decking though :)

Heelflip a 6 inch gap
switch flip 50-50

tell me if you think some of these are two hard, because I know some people probably can't do many switch tricks



Additional Note:

You may have to slow down the speed of your clips to about 50 or 60% because I've noticed while filming fingerboard tricks, often the board flips too fast to tell what is happening in real time, so the clips will have to be slowed down for proper judgement
