SKIMBOARDING THE WEDGE | Long rides on heavy Shorebreak! 2019

SUBSCRIBE: kzbin.info?su...
While many board riders shake their heads when they set eyes on the early season shorebreak that wedge has to offer, skimboarders quit their day job and start sprinting down the steep sandy slope in an effort to catch some of the longest rides a wave can offer for a skimboarder. There is a lot of consequence involved in riding a skimboard at wedge. Riding a board with sharp rails at high speeds on to the sand can be a sketchy combination. If you are going to ride a skimboard at wedge you better have really good board control because you will need to weave between other people and prevent your own board from hitting you when your ride doesn't go as planned.

[@briancameronlee]

That transition from skim to boogie to skim on the same wave was awesome

[@Sm1thWessonAndMe]

[@mcflyboarder9537]

Bro, you’ve inspired me. I live in Dubai and am seriously starved for waves. We get a lot of little shore break though, so I’m going to give skimboarding a bash.

[@SkidKids]

McFly Boarder glad to hear that. I’ve been to Dubai once and had some skimboarders reach out to me to look for waves. Hope you find some fun stuff to skim out there!

[@NicollasVerneck]

what camera /lens combo do you guys record this ? it looks so cinematic and the slowmotions are always so smooth.

[@OriginalJud]

Much more entertaining than watching 24 hrs in my suit vidoes

[@SkidKids]

We love Ben Gravy!!

[@OriginalJud]

@@SkidKids me too dude. I cry

[@OriginalJud]

And Speedo boy

[@johnquinn7794]

Music gave me a Cape Hatteras kinda feel.

[@asvppxdan6144]

what wax would you recommend for skimming

[@BEEFSTV]

Nice work big dogs. I got a s/o! Did corporate approve that? 🙂🤙

[@SkidKids]

you have our approval BEEFS

[@BEEFSTV]

Skid Kids oh man! 🙂

[@targetedrelief2887]

But do you have the council of 13s approval 🤔

[@huntracing5201]

11:48🔥

[@Kai_skim]

That exile prototype is weird and cool are they going to sell it

[@chasehoran7075]

what skimboard wax do you guys use?

[@rb3166]

If The Wedge was a righty I wouldn't even be here right now.

[@MatthewHyatt]

I was in till the rap track from Hd been dope or whoever. Lol.

[@christiankitzmiller6782]

is the prototype skim assymetrical??

[@joshuamarin5723]

And the Surfer® Poll Winner for BEST PARTY WAVE goes to Blair and the guy who almost managed to grab him. That was actually funny and cool.

[@MrCarlitosway713]

Does this dude remind anybody of Brody from the movie Point Break? I mean the way he rides and his hair when he's on a wave.

[@vladimirvenegas310]

si equipo los tenemos donde queremos

[@NiceCats8004]

u should try skimboarding a skateboard

[@alondraarce2751]

i have a question what is better material for a skimboard epoxy,foam or fiberglass.

[@SkidKids]

carbon fiber is best but i believe they use epoxy on those boards

[@ChoupiZara]

10:20, damn... You are a f***ing plane dude...

[@randol160]

that other skim reminds me of an assymetrical twin fin.

[@SkidKids]

;)

[@colinfitzgerald2426]

Where's your favorite place to skim I'm looking for spots

[@jesseb4827]

Knew this song sounded familiar. Brett barly intro

[@jevan18212]

that air time at 8 mins

[@batardubreak4670]

oleleleolalala

[@emancebo13]

8:45 What kind of glue does Blair put on his feet? Cause DAMN...

[@kimmccloskey2898]

I wish I had a skimboard

[@BreatheChristian]

5:36 awkwarddddddd

[@chaseproskims5331]

Body board/ Skimboard ?

[@rodneysmart9774]

5:07 meatball

[@stuarthayward2220]

I take it that prototype isn’t a Catch Surf. Looks like it’s really working well for you, though I bet you still kill it, even if you were riding a McDonald’s tray!

[@jrodsun9401]

Feel like I've seen this before.... Oh yeah beefs already posted it!

[@thedevbros8941]

O ya no one asked
