According to answers.com: " Tech Decks were actually invented by a 12-year old Californian skateboarder named Steven Asher on a rainy day in 1998. Obviously unable to skateboard outside, his idea was to bring it inside. With his imagination, he created 3-inch cardboard replicas of real skateboards and drew graphics on the bottom to enhance their realism. Steven's father, Peter Asher, coincidentally was a toy industry veteran, and used his son's idea as a brand new toy wave, and thus Tech Deck was born. Steven insisted that Tech Decks were to represent the real thing; real metal trucks, real grip tape, real graphics and real wheels. "
As in the toy. You tell me. The concept came from 1980's finger boards and even older. I have an all metal necklace pendant that is fully functional made in the 70's. Incan tribal games used a device only to be explained as a skateboard. All different sizes of these ranged from 3" toy versions to full sized and were rode on stone courts

One can find examples of tech deck tricks on the 'Tech Deck' website. There are also a number of demonstration videos for tech deck on YouTube. One simply has to enter tech deck into the search bar there.
You can spot if a tech deck is fake when it does not have the grip tape, and if there are pictures on both sides of your tech deck.
You can, there are painted tech deck trucks.
