Cher buddy

Thank you for this vid, I was trying to hit waves with my wooden board and just felt it wasn’t right

i was saving for a $120 dollar fiberglass skimboard but when i heard you say that foam skimboards are good for riding waves I was relieved so i just bought a foam skimboard thanks

Do you have any suggestions for a skimboard under $200 NZD that I could catch some waves on? Preferably a foam board. I in Nelson and rabbit island is a good skimboard place. I used to have a wooden board but I grew out of it and I want to get a new board so I can catch some bigger waves. Thanks

You won't get a decent foam board at that price point. You could possibly pick up a second hand board for that price on Trademe at the right time but really your budget isn't enough

Would it make sense to put grips on a wood board or is that only something you do with foam boards? (I could just use wax but if it makes sense, grips seem easier.)

Most quality wood boards these days have some form of foam traction. A tail pad and arch bar imo is stupid on a wood board. Flat foam traction is where it's at.
