@Stickmen102 Yes but not very good at waves if its thin it can still give you air is its shaped right like a 90$ board i mean you can get air even on a wood one if your good enough its just really hard the thickness and cost is what helos.
@xXMcJackerXx if you have the right size of board for you maybe you need to gain more speed. or you maybe can try to pump the nose of the board until you reach the wave---
@freestylefootball99 u dont NEED one but i like it better to have one because ur back foot cant slip off the back when u have the traction pad plus it looks cool :P
once again this is up to preference, i use both on my board a full arch bar, a tail pad and then I cover the board in wax along the sides of the arch bar just to give my toes something to grip.
the boards they use are carbon fiber a foam skimboard is nonexistent but wood boards are most likely not used due to the weight making it hard to ride waves
When someone says foam they mean the core of the board, not all of them are necessarily using carbon boards either. There are two types of foam used commonly in skimboards polyvinyl and polyurethane. After that they put what you are talking about on it, basicly a sheet of fiberglass (eglass or sglass), carbon, or kevlar in some cases and one of three usual types of resin epoxy, vinylester, or polyester.
not scientific, correct. ask anyone who actually knows what they are talking about. I wanted to give the kid a run down of whats actually going on instead of saying stupid bullshit like there is no such a thing as a foam board. smart ass kids like you are what's wrong with the current state of skimming.
i can not bodyboard for now, cause i am in minessota (don't ask my why) so i tried skimboarding and i learned that that can not be done over ice and i also fell off the board and i cried and cried cause it hurts and i am 26 but that does not mean i can not show my feelings.
in Rostock/Warnemünde...bei gutem Wind kommt das Wasser schön hochgelaufen und dann kannst da herlich auf dem flachen Wasser skimmen;) Und wenns richtig gut is, kannst auch in die Wellen fahren, mit dem entsprechendem Board^^
Ich komme von da...ist meine Heimat;) Von daher traumhaft, jeden Tag direkt nachm Sport oder der Schule ab an Strand:D Jetzt wohn ich leider in KArlsruhe wegen Studium und hier fehlen mir echt die Spots=(
Im fan of exile and victoria. If u get a board for wave riding spend over $300. If your looking to learn to ride for the first time (on the shore) doesnt really matter, just get a board for your weight
i been skimboarding for about a year now and im alright but i need to learn how to get on the board faster. i take like 3 steps before i get on it and i need to be taking like one. any one got any tips??
I skim and surf its all about getting wet
