*Lives 7 hours from the ocean and only goes to the beach once a year* "You will also have to practice skimboarding at least 2 days a week" I WILL NEVER GIVE UP

[@williametzler3743]

I go to a cottage on the bay side of Cape Cod once every year. The last few years I have tried transitioning from bay skimming to ocean skimming with very little luck. First of all the beaches are pretty rocky and I get worried about my board. (If you know any good cape beaches hmu) Secondly, I am bad at timing and run-ups because on the bay you can just throw the board and then chase after it. But this video helped out a ton with #2!

@@williametzler3743 it's hard - one of the hardest sports to get very good at. dont give up, but if you love it and want to progress you can always look to move when you're an adult.

In fact, it shows he's actually a good skimboarder because he's able to show you the mistakes. #takealesson And as far as how many days/hours/etc... well it really depends on what level you want to be at.

[@betterthanyesterday3912]

Does anyone have any suggestions/tips for learning on the lakeshore? I have access to Lake Mi, but the beaches have quite a slope and the waves are very frequent and don't come very far up. This makes it very difficult to get good approaches: You have to run through loose, dry sand OR run parallel to the shoreline on a downward angle, due to the sloping shoreline. Extremely frustrating, but I dont want to give up because it's so fun and great exercise. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

[@BeachLookingGuy]

sorry if im late on this. It's a tough situation. that type of skimming is just underwhelming after some time and like most activities, skimboarding is most fun with a great beach, friends and community. it's likely you will be doing this mostly alone and in rather unfavorable conditions. my personal advise would to just find something better to "pursue". if you really just want to go out anyways that is completely fine, I would just set my expectation that it's a side hobby to goof around with. if you're not a little kid under the age of 12 at least, i would definitely find something else because skimming is very hard to learn the older you get.

Hey look, I'm 62, I started skimming at 57 at my son's insistence, I'm no super-athlete, former college cross-country runner, but that doesn't equate to sh&% on the waves, just throw that board in the surf over and over and over, don't get frustrated, by biggest mistake as a beginner was not equating speed with success, it's no secret, you need some serious speed before the drop in order to skim well. Like that cute blonde headed away from you on the beach, you gonna let her walk away or you gonna talk to her? (what I, in turn, have taught my son...)

When I drop my board on the wet sand it keeps getting stuck. Does my skimboard needs to be waxed or something from the bottom? I just started skimboarding.

My skimboard is 48 inches. I’m 5’3” and weight 140lbs. Any tips? Thank you!

[@BeachLookingGuy]

it takes a lot of speed and finesse. also knowing exactly what the perfect timing and thickness of water. speed and finesse will keep the board from not sticking. a lot of time getting reps and trying different things will teach you the timing and amount of water necessary. one of the hardest things about skimming is the transition from running to sliding without losing speed or control. it's not as easy as it looks.

it takes time and practice until you get comfortable. when i went from front foot first to back foot first i changed the way i held the board. i already had a way i liked to ride, so i just needed to switch the way i was holding it. what ever foot rides on the tail should be the same hand that holds the tail.
