Can anyone tell me how t SKIMBOARD ?

Question

i wanna learn it so bad plz step by step! cuz i never tryed it!

Answer 1

first hold the skimboard with one hand on the side and the back hand on the tail of the board(the end). wait for the wave to come to the shore,and when the water on the sand is like 1-2 inches deep, toss the board forward in front of u. dont toss it too far tho, just hard enough for it to glide and for u to jump on. then start running to catch up w/ the gliding board and jump on it. dont jump on the board too hard w/ big impact or u might bail. wen u land on the board bend ur knees for balance.

Answer 2

hold ur board with your back hand on the tail/end of board, front hand on the side closer to you. wait for the wake to come in, then when the water starts to pull back in run slowly and throw/slide the board down, jump on and balance. once you get the hang of it try doing surface 360s and pop shuvits. also try to ride into waves and surf them for a few seconds.

Answer 3

the best way is to wait till a wave comes close put it down and just ride it i went to mexico and ppl were getting air off the waves and doing flips it was crazy

Answer 4

Ehow and Wikihow are two great resources on how to do just about anything - I use them all the time.

There are also articles how to make your own skimboard.   I made my own as a 13yo with scrap plywood, sandpaper, paint and lots of wax.  I had a blast, you will too I hope.
