You know i used to laugh at skimmers until i saw someone who can actually do it properly. Boy did i feel humbled :lol:

Im thinking of getting one for summer on those impossibly flat days.

i skim just bout every week multiple days! i have a zap med. pro fiberglassed. and yes on a smooth day i can slide out to where all the surfers are! its a real kick cause they got theyre 32 ft longboards thinkin theyre cool cuz they float! but skimming is awesome.the variety of tricks you can do and waves to ride is amazing!
