Wow! Haven't been on here in a long time. This was a nice welcome. Definitely the best Fl skim I can remember seeing.
Here's a "flatland" massacre from some local gulf coast talent. This was a contest thrown by Overhead Surf Shop, Let's Party Traction and Exile. If you like flatland tre shuvs you're going to love...
Awesome edit Morgan!
Christian Fletcher used that Bud Dwyer suicide in a 90's surf video called "The Smut Peddler". Pretty epic to see that as a little grom.

I've had Astro Deck, Gorilla, OAM, Dakine, X track, Freak, Poor Boy and Creature traction pads on surfboards and skimboards and I can honestly say I have no preference. They all do the same thing. If...
Practice skateboarding without kicking. Only tack back and forth to gain speed. That will help teach you the fundamentals of the technique.
Hell yeah Derek and Morgan! No 1 on surfline with the paddle in! "taking advantage of the less drag"...
Sick shots Morgan! Stoked to see the skurfing shots.
I feel what you're saying. I just wanted to put this out there and see what people think about it. I could see how a paddle in division would be a sort of novelty at a traditional skim comp but I...
I thought about the leash factor for paddle ins and concluded that drilling a hole through the kick on your tail pad could give you a place to attach a leash. I've never done it, but it seems logical...
Good to see a pad company devoted to our sport. It'll be my next pad for sure!
Thank you Hank! That's pretty much how I feel. I think it deserves it's own competitive field and I really think it would attract a lot more attention to skimboarding. I just want to see these guys...
I don't care how their boards are. They don't give a frack about skimming and that's the bottom line. They just want skimboarding to blow up and be the next big craze so they can make the cheapest...
I think the attention that paddle in skimming has received this year has made it apparent that it is more than a novelty. Do you think you would rather see on a UST edit someone get shacked on a wave...
The conditions in Vilano on the last day of the UST stop were windy, choppy and unfavorable for skimboarding. Despite that fact, it was wedgy with hollow and heavy peaks where I witnessed John...
Yeeew! Thanks Morgan Grosskreutz for filming a second angle! It made this video so much sicker!

All these Florida skimmers are getting so clean and consistent on their tech that it's ridiculous. Danny Montrone who has a bunch of clips in this as well as Garrett Wolff are two Florida Am's who...
Here is a video from the 2012 End of Summer Skim Comp in Madeira Beach. The "waves" (using that term loosely) were small, even for the gulf. Never the less it was still a fun time with everyone...
Really sick. Good barrels everywhere.
Sick edit! I like the wave at :52. Looked like a fun time.
I think it has to do with age. No one ever bitches at my old ass for skimming anymore but when I was younger sometimes people would say something. Also, I try to be as respectful and safe when...
Sick video with the exception of the extremely terrible cover of an extremely awesome song. Thanks for taking a steaming dump all over Zeppelin.
