You think we could pull off a shuvit behind the boat with this heavy thing??
When i saw the track pad perfectly placed on the skim i started dying 🤣
This guy can ride any piece of wood !! Great 🤙
Solaglocal brought me here! SO EPIC!! If anyone reading is able to make it over to the South Bay Boards factory in Huntington beach SHOULD DO IT! They sell blem skimboards for epic prices! Also sell blem surfboards too for great deals. Friendly people too, highly recommended if your trying to save bucks on a wicked skimboard! I bought 5 skims and a softtop last time I went there haha.
Guys! 😂 This was hilarious. Such a fun time helping film and build! Great job on the edit Conner as always! 🤌🏼 - I think it counts as a mild Big Spin- what do you think?

Do a woody hack video with the new board and see if you can make it better lol
I love skimboard woody 🤙🇵🇭
Nice and wholesome! Try some different build types too, like the honey-comb core, lighter woods, a skimboard with a stringer etc. Don't worry about keeping it under $100. I'd love to see how they all ride.

You think if i can fiberglass the woody and it might become a good skimboard to use in general?
try mixing the wood glue and sawdust in a small container lol, it was funny watching you mix it by hand tho lol
For being wood, it looked like you were riding waves decently 🤙
♥️🤙🏼
With steam you can make the curves without cut
in the philippines most of the skimboarders couldn’t afford foamy so they use woody skimboards like this one but still rides the wave like it’s not heavy af. tbh there are a lot of good skimboarders in the philippines imagine what they can do with a foamy skimboards

Yes I agree. I remember visiting for 4 months in 2010, I left the boys in Dahican with one of my skimboards. Incredibly talented riders in the Philippines 🇵🇭.
I can’t do 1/10th of that on my fancy EX0 :D
I guess this board is totally immune to strong winds
