Hey Guys, Im just getting into skimboarding. Have a board and some wax on the way. When I can buy one, im going to get a traction pad, and leash. Most of what I do well be flatland, but when on vacation i wanna try the waves out. I street skate at that's about it. Anyways any tips for a new skimboarder?

Conrad923
05-23-2008, 01:37 PM
just buy paint pens from a craft store, or if your lazy, use a sharpie.
it does come off with acetone, but if your board is a clear top, youll want to use something else

No. Your board should be buoyant enough to float.
And wax is fine, just apply it right.
I prefer traction pads + wax.
Just save up for a traction pad and an arch bar for skimming in the ocean... It should be fine for flatland too.

This is probably my favorite board so far. How did you do the white diagonal stripes?
they are called stripper pads, they come in little strips so u can do designs that have grips or you can just lay them out.

Thanks a lot, do you know where I could get thinner ones and white just like the ones in the picture? I want them so bad
Conrad923
05-23-2008, 06:57 PM
......change black to white on the website with the scroll bar and if you READ the description, it tells you there are ten strips
actually the website says six, but it comes with ten.
EastCoastSk1m
05-23-2008, 07:06 PM
I cut mine in half and then cut in 45 degree angles on one end and the points on the other. If you want thinner ones you can just cut them in half lengthwise.
It's funny too, b/c I go to UCF and my board kind of has their colors. Someone pointed that out to me yesterday.
YellowSnow
05-23-2008, 07:24 PM
Ya I noticed that you could change it once I returned, but on the board they seem to be much thinner; maybe a little thicker than tape. And they look like they have a different texture Were these the same grips you got?
EastCoastSk1m
05-23-2008, 07:36 PM
Actually, they are thicker than you think. They just look thin b/c the shots I took are straight on.
does it come off? and how do you do it, im looking to do that and put my last name on my sdie of my board
http://www.surfline.com/surfnews/photo_bamp.cfm?id=15426&ad=1
boom chikawawaaa
For my board I just did all the jazz in paint pens and throw down some coats of clear acrylic spray paint over top of it to make sure it doesn't smudge or run. When clear coating, start with a very, very light coat. Then wait for it to dry and do a little heavier. Repeat as much as desire. If you do too heavy at first it could cause your paint to run.
You don't necessarily have to clear coat it. I'm pretty sure all the clear coat on mine has worn off by now (did it a couple years ago). But, some of the paint on my board has smudged and shit.

Hello, I am just joining the SkimOnline Message Boards. I have been around the site before, but just created my own account. I live and skim in Manhattan Beach, California. The first board on here is my Victoria Foamie. It was originally the yellow, green, and black color, but I spray painted it when I knew I was getting a new board. The second board on there is my Carbon Exile that I got yesterday. Quite a step from a Foamie to a Carbon Exile.

ive seen about 50 exiles ridden by kids in my area. and have only heard about 2 or 3 breaking and that was because they had them forever. so idk where the hell you get your info from.

funny how you can work for a company and never hear about all of these "broken" boards... i've never broken an exile and i skim almost every day at places like west st, aliso, and wedge and i like to do airdrops a lot.
exile's have the exact opposite reputation that you are saying.. kinda weird, but thats your opinion so that's cool with me even though it's confusing from my point of view.

haha that'll do it. most boards if they do break it's because of unfixed dings that can weaken the board and breaks can be prevented. sometimes it's just bad luck. pretty much if you go out the back a lot or do airs and land really flat not in transition you're going to break boards. stay away from the seaweed Rex, shiz suckkksss.
