Foam Skimboards

Foam Skimboards are often used by intermediate riders who have mastered the art of sand skimming on a wooden board and want to develop their skills, skim further and maybe go out into the waves and even learn some tricks.

Many advanced riders use Foam Skimboards built to ride waves, travel and skim for decent distances on the sand.

Foam Skimboards are lightweight yet tough. They are stiffer and more responsive than wooden Skimboards, which are better for turning, riding and tricks, giving the rider superior feedback.

The extra stiffness and improved responsiveness of foam Skimboards work great for riders with some experience under their belt. Still, they are less forgiving of mistakes and technical errors, something to bear in mind if you’re a beginner.

Foam Skimboards have a foam core and are usually covered in fibreglass and finished in a waterproof coating, such as epoxy resin. The design is light and easy to run with but not too light the wind takes the board when dropped.
