Hi there SolShredSkim, I actually just started skimming thanks to a friend who introduced me to it. I must say, its challenging and feels weird compared to surfing. I got a 43'' skim and my surf stance makes me sink the board into the sand. lol. The first few seconds where it looks like your skimming on a river? is that in kailua?
No. It's at Pipeline in front of the Volcom House. Most people assume it's a river when they see it but it's actually a mini pond formed by high tide and winter rain.
I am currently riding Matthieu Thibaud's model that Victoria came out with this year. The green board in the video is a small s-glass Plane Wrap. If you're on a budget and since you're a beginner, I suggest you start with a Foamie. If $ is not an issue, the Ultra is considered an intermediate board and it should last you a few years (depending on how you treat it) until you step up your skills in time for an advanced board. Go to vicskim.com to shop for the sickest boards!
Sorry for the late reply Sol, thanks for the info! Still skim?
