What is skimboarding / How to learn ?

Skimboarding is a sport in which the participant throws a wooden or fiberglass board onto the beach where the water meets the sand in perfect timing to slide out to a wave, breaking close or right onto the shore. Once you can learn the timing and balance of skimming, you are ready to smack the lip of a wave, or pull in, and get barreled. When first learning, it helps to practice your balance on dry sand or going sideways on the wet sand versus going straight out towards a wave.

TIP: Always warm up and stretch good. If you don't, you'll feel it tomorrow.
