you could probable drink a gallon of muscle milk and put your fist in the back of the board like a Rutter. and pump yourself to the wave.

idk dude i feel like this is how it is every winter, beaches get totally fucked, flat, and eroded, and then clean up and steepen out for the summer (god willing with no huge storms to fuck it)

same. i cant wait to see your square when you get it. ive never seen one in person
and ditto on all of this here. i hope I'm makin the right choice gettin the square, but I think its a good idea cus they supposedly get you way out and the kevlar's kinda supposed to be bullet/rockproof
Glenn_SLi
12-29-2009, 08:15 AM
dont bother with kevlar, heavier, and the rails peel, carbon ftw
TRiiPPiN
12-29-2009, 08:25 AM
what do u mean the rails peel like the bottom layer delams? and its kinda too late the boards already ordered. And the heavy likely wont be a problem cos im used to the foamie which weighs like 10 pounds. If it weighs like similar or less than eglass I'll b satisfied. it seems like carbon just has too short of a life span for me to be able to drop 400 on it...idk I'm hopin the kevlar'll stay put for a while, but im pretty good to my boards so maybe itll work out.
TRiiPPiN
12-29-2009, 08:54 AM
kinda what I was getting at. the board I ride is heavy as sin, so I think any board I get next is going to feel lighter. I don't know about the peeling, thats the first I heard about it( thanks tho glenn) supposing that does happen, would it make sense to bring some of that additiive F into the fixing process?

no worries man the board will be sick. it will be a crazy upgrade from a foamie
TRiiPPiN
12-29-2009, 08:55 AM
also, if anyone knows: is kevlar also heavier than E/S glass? or is it a middleground between carbon/ the fibreglasses?
TRiiPPiN
12-29-2009, 08:58 AM
lol u probably are right drew
LI HxC
12-29-2009, 08:59 AM
I'm pretty sure kevlar is just as light as an e-glass board, so don't sweat it out too much, either way the shape and weight will make more of a difference than anything, it's going to be lighter then a foamie for sure.
Glenn_SLi
12-29-2009, 08:59 AM
i was goinmg to order a custom kevlar vic, he personaly told me not to, not worth it and they were having rail problems, but im just giving you what i heard
and for your side note, im just saying their heaiver haha, y would you want a heavier board anyway?
TRiiPPiN
12-29-2009, 09:01 AM
yerp im sure I'll love it cos its my first 'real' skimboard but i just hope itll last nearly as long as I initially thought it would.
TRiiPPiN
12-29-2009, 09:03 AM
like errbody said itll still be much lighter than my foamie i was just wishing on the super ding-resistant thing. and i was gonna get carbon but the funds simply werent there.
Glenn_SLi
12-29-2009, 09:38 AM
bummer man, i havent gone underwater in 5 months haha, nor really skimmed at all in the time, i just kick more sand though
TRiiPPiN
12-29-2009, 09:43 AM
yeeeup. high winds will fuck you up. sometimes the board'll be all the way in the water sliding and then...pow! right in the kisser. board to the face. probly the only reason why heavier can be better. and sometimes it helps w/ my momentum.
skimlongisland
12-29-2009, 09:52 AM
i no alot about bruised shins. my previous board weighs about 1 ounce and i skimmed in some high winds before. not good times
Glenn_SLi
12-29-2009, 10:16 AM
ya i hate kicking sand, then you just feel your foot scrapeo n something under the sand, and next thing you know you skinned your toe tops haha
i still got a knarly scar on my lower shin, was going down the line at " oh shits " fell back into the wave and the board shot out, then shot back right at my shin didnt walk for 3 hours, it was a really epic day too was, and your feet are are all scars
LI HxC
12-29-2009, 10:59 AM
If its that windy I honestly don't really bother to even skim, i just break out the sponge or surfboard at that point haha, no point in wasting good waves because you can't get to them so just ride them with somthing else
skimlongisland
12-29-2009, 01:21 PM
yea sometimes i break out the sponge when its really windy but then i usually start skimming after a half hour haha
TRiiPPiN
12-29-2009, 06:41 PM
i havent had to say no like once in a year bc of that foamie's built in weight... don't like kicking sand either- but it sure can help avoiding pop-flying skims occasionally. and that little board was downright funny to watch sometimes andrew. shit almost killed ya one windy day as I recall. not enough weight to do any real damage, but it likely could've hurt. I just wanna bond with my sweet new skimmmm

But I just got back from skimming jetty4 and it had a nice good size but tricky wave to the left of the jetty. but it was windy enough that i got cold real quick and had to retire after like 45mins. fun stuff though... and I've never really skimmed on a snowy beach in january before...yeehaw:D

idk what boots to get.
i just want some intensely warm ones. what should i get??
TRiiPPiN
01-07-2010, 08:34 AM
the boots I use and love are Oneill 7mm closed toe(not the teenage mutant ninja turtle toe- more comfortable, less warm) with a thermo-layer(dk what that means). I got them for xmas like two years ago and theyre still like new and toasty as fuck.Probly anything with that thickness is gonna be good enough but be sure to try em on and kinda figure out if youre gonna like skimming in em bc mine feel like skimming in neoprene chuck taylor allstars(a good thing) but a lot of people dont like skimmin in booties. also do look for one with a nice thick rubber sole bc you step on all kinds of sharp things skimming that you wouldnt surfing.
Glenn_SLi
01-07-2010, 09:01 AM
haha u guys dont need 5 or 7 mill booties
just go buy a good pair or 3 mil, its not like were in the water alot, and you have alot more ability to move in 3 mils
TRiiPPiN
01-07-2010, 09:20 AM
I like skimmin in my 7s its quite comfortable and theyre flexy enough that I can feel everything but I dont think ill change this year because my feet are the warmest part of my setup. 3/2s are brutal this season, definitely buying a thicker wetsuit before next winter. still, though my hands get the coldest. dont know what thickness the gloves are, theyre very nice, but I think I'd be warmer with something waterproof(maybe?)
LI HxC
01-07-2010, 09:55 AM

Glenn, theres slope at smiths but not alot, anything more then a 2-3 foot swell will probably start coming up further then where the slope is, so if your there on a day with decent waves it might work. It was ankle biters literally today
Edit: I lied, it'll hold an okay swell for now.

^^REALLY?:eek: bc that would b awesome.
I went w/ my lil brother , took no pics. went to jetty4 and the waves were shitty reforms but they were close to shore and fun and the conditions felt pretty warm. tomorrows supposed to be warmer, but windier. sat. is supposed to be like a degree warmer than that and like 6mph winds(nothin) skimmed in these hilarious neoprene chuck taylors, which I just might photograph for the enjoyment of this thread.
edit: I forgot to mention that the slope at jetty4 was ok to actually good, maybe a lil short.

saw a picture of it once, or something like that. the waves right to left instead of from the horizon to the beach. so when you catch the line you would be skimming out farther and farther into the ocean instead of a normal line where you catch it and ride paralell to the shore. someone said it was long island, i have tried countless times to search for the thread where it was posted and i cant find it.
i dont know if thats what youre talking about but i saw a picture on here about 2 or 3 years ago

i acctually made that all up i was bored, that would be sick tho, the pics you saw was probaly demos, theres only 1 or 2 spot in montalk that are skimmable due to rocks, lol

01-15-2010, 01:21 PM
lol thats what I had thought originally. went skimming at jetty4 again today, and what a difference a day makes. terrible temps, but goodish waves and a wierd slope that included sidewash coming off a sandbar on the jetty...fun enough to be worth the cold. but damn it was cold.

jetty 4 is where ? exactly
TRiiPPiN
01-15-2010, 04:30 PM
off sunrise: exit 65 south to riverhead rd., then down riverhead road a ways until you reach a traffic circle. take said circle kind of straight(1/2way thru the circle, there's a sign with an arrow labeled "beach") take that road as straight as you can go all the way past the bridge. turn right at swordfish beach club.
like halfway between cupsogue and the swordfish beach bridge its a lil town beach but yea theres a lot of jetties in close proximity to each other.
yea ill put cellphone pics i took of the waves up, although youre best off looking at them in person. these dont look very much like what i was skimming.

whoever took the board is dead, literally boob has all there info, im so excited, and as for the " koolness" of shops, bunger sayville is the best, religion meh, theropy can go fuck emselves, original owners in florida for the past couple years, as for skimboards in our shops, it wont happen because no one wants to pay 300+ dollors for a vic or exile, so itll never happen, i tryed trust me tex from vic came here and i took him to all the shops, didnt work out that well
did anyone on here take the board so i know who to go after ? because either way your done

Ray from therapy is a really cool guy and took over the shop from the douche bags who used to own woody's so its literally just him at the shop, hes super friendly and helpful and really knowledgeable, religion gives me that feeling of the guy is just agreeing with what your saying to sell somthing.
