Blair describes foot placement and balance that will help you complete the more skate style tricks a skimboard has to offer. He breaks down how you complete a 360 shuv it, a big spin, and the frontside and backside variations of each.

Hey Blair, I dunno if you did it yet, but you should do a tutorial on how to pump

[@anthony4251]

Aaron Tran look into a carver skate board they are great for helping to pump

[@ballsackdrake]

[@huonbyrne-ockerby852]

Good one again guys. Could you please teach us about timing next because even though I can sideslip 10 to 15m I'm usually a tad too early or late, and rarely get the perfect one. Cheers

[@roguedarthj7812]

This was so helpful!!

[@corinneconklin8781]

Nice work guys!

[@slctindiv3519]

Thanks Blair!

[@MrGeoghagan]

Loving the videos! They have helped a ton! I have been making use of a friend’s skimboard and I’m looking to purchase my own. I was hoping to get a recommendation by someone more experienced in regards to what type of skimboard would be best for an area with small to medium surf and no real breaks other than shore breaks. If you have the opportunity I’d love to hear your thoughts/recommendations?

[@tonepoet]

The messiah has spoken. Haha! Nice tutorial, it's inspiring even though Blair is leagues beyond us all.

[@robsonvoltures122]

Acho que vou trocar meu skate por essa prancha 😎

[@MomentsinTimeFilms]

Sick teach the youth

[@tiernanmead3489]

🔥🔥🔥

[@kashabash]

I would relate learning tricks on the flats skimming to flat-ground skateboarding. Great way to learn tricks and in skateboarding it's just another aspect of the sport, no need to talk about flat-skimming in a condescending way, it's just another aspect of the sport.

[@judecrutchfield1953]

What skim board do u use?

[@guilhermemanha592]

What Is the board that you use in this tutorial? Can give the link where to buy?

[@jonoedwards4195]

Blair Shredding in His PJ Pants!

[@sullyo6068]

I don't live anywhere near the beach so I started watching your videos recently and was very interested in skin boarding. I learnt to skim board with the one step within a day then became consistent whilst running as fast as I could within about 6 days so on the last day of our trip I tried learning two tricks but I was useless😂 don't know why I'm watching this.

[@sullyo6068]

Plus I only had a plain wooden board so that helps.

[@Caysonator007]

I made it first. I’m heading to the beach in like 20 mins😂💯. Ur awesome

[@SkidKids]

hope some of our videos get you pumped to go to the beach!

[@Caysonator007]

Heck yah they do. Landed first backside shuvs today

[@aubreyroberts2443]

I did all of this easy

[@harryhuffman3947]

the girl who got swallowed by that wave had me laughing

[@toms7365]

Hello Blair and other subscribers ! Well, i really would know the dimensions of your skimboards because i want to build one, i don't have enough money to buy one and i really want to have one in fiber ! Thanks ! (im 6 feet tall and 132 lb)

[@floridaboy9641]

Would you say an air is an intermediate or beginner trick?

[@SkidKids]

intermediate. In order to start catching air you have to be pretty good with timing for the right wave

[@CharlitoLeraSr.]

Do you have board for sale ??

[@evanwoosterDG]

[@randomthingsgaming4004]

Reeee

[@BeachLookingGuy]

dude, the sand mound is a bad idea. every shot is a bust.

[@SkidKids]

The purpose of the sand mound is to get the feeling of the board spinning under your feet.
