PLIES MAGAZINE PRE-GAME PHILADELPHIA

PLIES MAGAZINE PRE-GAME AUGUST 29–30 PHILLY TAKES THE EAST | USAFBL EASTERN REGIONAL DELTA HOTELS, BREINIGSVILLE, PA

The East Coast is about to erupt. On August 29 and 30, the USA Fingerboarding League touches down in Breinigsville, PA, just outside Philadelphia, for the Eastern Regional, a two-day heater that sets the pace for the final leg of the tour. Hosted inside the Delta Hotels ballroom, this stop is all gas, no brakes.
This is where fingerboarding steps onto the big stage. We’re talking 30+ professionally built parks, spread across 5,000+ square feet and packed with hundreds of competitors, creators, vendors, and fans. Whether you’re hunting the podium or just vibing with your crew, this is where East Coast fingerboarding levels up. Raffles, giveaways, exclusive drops, mini games, it’s all happening.
USAFBL has been paving this road for five years, logging 30,000 miles, 25+ national events, and locking in over 800 registered riders. It’s not just competition, it’s culture. From grassroots jams to international qualifiers, this league has built something unmatched, and the East Regional is where legacy begins for many. Philly’s known for grit, and this stop’s no different. If you want it, you’ll have to earn it.
This event is also the last stop for East Coast riders to qualify for Nationals in Indianapolis, where top scorers will rep the U.S. at FastFingers 22 in Germany. High stakes, big vibes, real rewards.
And pulling up with serious heat is Cleveland’s Lea Loikits aka @FBgirly, repping TP Decks, Flatface, and Devise. She’s been building and riding since 2007, carrying that gritty Midwest garage-builder energy into every sesh. Expect clean setups, creative lines, and pure passion. Philly, you’ve been warned.

Saturday: 11AM–7PM (early access for league members at 10)
Pro tip: This one’s right off the highway, with free parking and full venue access. Bring your crew, charge your cam, and come ready to get loud.
