    When I started skimming back in the 80s, we used to steal construction signs ( sheets of plywood, basically ) and cut, warp and glass our own boards. Through trial and error we'd sand down rails and even try to make grooves or even tiny "fins" on the tail. They were usually big and clumsy but a ton of fun. Wasn't until much later I was able to afford my first foam board.

      Don't worry man it will become instinctual! Then you work on wave timing and that becomes instinctual as well. I taught myself in 1983 after seeing this miracle of fun in action at 15 years old. Foam boards didn't even EXIST til the late 1980s and then they were $200! OUCH! I made my own plywoods.

    • @rb3166
      @rb3166 4 года назад +4

      Make your own it's fun! For flats you can't beat slick Wilsonart plastic laminate on the bottom. Use Elmer's waterproof contact cement. One coat first to let soak in, then another to apply for the bonding, and rubber mallet from the inside outwards, then jigsaw, then router and sand a bevel. varnish the sides!

    • @lukegogolin7069
      @lukegogolin7069 4 года назад

      R B can this make a board go out onto water more? Because that’s my main problem I can’t seem to get my board to go out any further than just a couple feet before I start to sink into the water.

    • @rb3166
      @rb3166 4 года назад +1

      @@lukegogolin7069 It's a bit better than a half-inch plywood board because it's lighter and faster on the SAND, but to get out there you need to turn sideways. However to REALLY get out there you need a foamie and turn sideways. The Wilsonart board is a layer top and bottom of a 3/8 inch plywood. Like I said tough and fast on sand and you don't have to worry about pebbles wrecking your finish. GREAT for shorebreaks CLOSER to the sand. You marry the layers, pound with rubber mallet, then jigsaw it out after a few days drying. Choose your plywood with the grain longways and a nose-ward rocker bend already in. Look along the edge for the bend.

    I was given a wooden skimboard that didn't float hardly and was pretty small for me. But I road that thing hard. It wasn't until later I saw someone using a bigger one made out of carbon fiber or plastic or whatever than white material is and I saw them riding into deep water to ramp waves and as a hard-core skateboarder I was so envious and jealous, I knew it was like a skimboard but I never knew what it was called. Turns out it was just a regular skim board mine was just super cheap thin and could only ramp a very shallow wave

    Here’s how you make your own
    1. Take a big piece of paper and make an outline of the board
    2. Buy a piece of plywood and put the outline on it
    3. Cut the board out with your outline
    4. Sand the rail down
    5. Dip the tip in water for 24 hours
    6. Then make your rocker by placing a weight where you want the bend to be and put the tip more in the air
    7. Sand some more and that should be it
