Extractions: by Skim Hawaii .com Many people think of flat land or tidal pools when you mention skimming. Todays skimboarder attacks the big shorepound and rides it in with grace. The moves one can pull on a skimboard are a blend of many other board sports, including wave riding like surfing, shove-its and varials like skateboarding and high-flying aerials like windsurfing. In fact, skimmers were photographed puposely catching air earlier than surfers. Kyle Olson . pic - Gretchen Cardoso Competitions are held world-wide with corporate sponsors supporting the sport. Prize purses have reached $10,000 and are sure to rise with the sports growth. Hot spots for wave skimming are Portugal, Brazil, Japan, Chile, Cabo San Lucas - Mexico and of course the USA. Both of the Florida coasts are packed with skimmers, Laguna Beach, CA is known as the birthplace of modern day skimming with most of the worlds best residing there and Hawaii where skimming is thought to be evolved from. The earliest photograph of skimboarding dates back to 1919 at Waikiki Beach. Many Hawaiian's believe it goes back hundreds of years before that, using a Paipo Board which is similar to a modern day bodyboard. Micah McCarty . pic - Gretchen Cardoso If you are into board sports and have not tried it yet you are missing out. Boards are hand made, similar to surfboards, and are available around the world in surf shops or on the net. They range from $50 to $350. The inexpensive boards are ok to learn the basics on but lose their appeal soon after. It's best to start off with a mid-level or above skimboard as they are just as easy to learn on and when you are ready you can ride the waves with it.

Extractions: Welcome to my skimboarding site. I only have a little bit on it right now and I should have much more by the end of the summer. I haven't got many pictures yet because I have only went skimboarding once this season. If you have any skimboarding pictures or links to good skimboarding websites please email them to me. Skimboarding is a little like surfing but on the sand. To skimboard you need a flat area on the beach with a thin layer of water on the sand. Skimboards look like surfboards but are not as long, a little wider, and a little thinner. There are two types of skimboards; Woody's and Foamies. Woodys are made of wood and foamies are fiberglass with foam in the middle. With foamies you could go in deeper water than you could with a woody because they are lighter. Here are some pictures to show you what skimboarding looks like

Extractions: Skimboarding is a sport similar to surfing which takes place "on the sand" or near the shore. This site is mainly focused on skimboarding on the sand. Really you don't skim on the sand, the board slides on a thin film of water covering the sand. If you live near an ocean then you can do this on the beach as the waves come in. If you don't live near a beach you can still skim. Try rivers, streams, flooded fields, large puddles, tarps, etc. Anyplace you can find a thin film of water. How thin does it need to be? The laws of physics say that the thinner the film of water, the farther you will go. But if it's too thin the board will stick to the sand and then you'll be introduced to two more laws of physics; Inertia and gravity. First you need to find a place with a thin film of water. Once you found some water to skim on, hold the board and start running. At first you might want to go slow, don't go faster than you are prepared to fall. Once you've reached the speed your comfortable with, throw the board down in front of you. While the board is sliding on the water, keep running and either jump or "run" onto the board. Make sure you keep your knees bent and try to keep your center of gravity over the middle of the board. Try to land with your back foot near the back of the board and your front foot about halfway up the board. Now your on the board, just don't fall off and your skimming.
