Tow Skimming?

**SkimTexas** · 05-01-2008, 04:54 PM

Me and my friends one time got a golf cart, a rope and a crappy skimboard and started towing up and down the beach. it was really cool almost like wakeboarding where u could slingshot yourself into bigger waves. After a while we had a line of cars and golf carts following us and taking pictures it was awesome until i fell mid-spin and cut open my elbow. Has anyone else done something like this?

**SkimTexas** · 05-01-2008, 04:59 PM

I think Texas is one of the few places left where you can still drive on the beach.

**SkimTexas** · 05-01-2008, 05:32 PM

(afterthought: I need a new sig...)
Edit: Done. Boo-ya)

**SkimTexas** · 05-01-2008, 06:04 PM

**benblack** · 05-01-2008, 11:06 PM

**SkimTexas** · 05-01-2008, 11:10 PM

**Aaron Peluso** · 05-01-2008, 11:54 PM

I have done it in Mexico a few time. Kinda fun. Not fun if your board sticks on the sand.
