Well if SKIM boarding can be included under Surfing tricks, check out this BODY boarding move from Dave Hubbard.
Most people know of an El Rollo ( like a through the lip corkscrew 360 ). But have you seen a Reverse Spin El Rollo ? For me it was a "Wah ??" moment.
Fast forward to 2:04 and 4:10 mark

My cousin rides a boogie board standing up, I think he just does this to be different. Yeah skim boarders have been doing that since I was a kid nearly 60 years ago

When I was a young tyke I used to skim board just up the face of waves and back down to the beach but other guys would ride the wave a bit. It's all about timing and the wave of course. Mostly I liked to ride straight into the wave and launch and do flips and stuff since it's much easier to time that right. I have heard that surfers have completed el rollo's but haven't seen any youtubes yet .......maybe that will come from wave pools

Let's see if any of those "air" guys can perform a "SNAP" under the lip with a 7'8" ( let alone a 6'8" ) . Tom Carroll when Power not tricks ruled the day.

More power to you. I think both Slater and Medina surf beautifully here.
