**skrobo** · 08-04-2006, 04:15 PM

what is the best BRAND of board overall

as far as rails holding up
no delamination
less breaks
best built

There is no "best" brand. All the high end boards (Vic, Exile, Zap, Slotstik, Lands End, Syndrome, Blitz, etc. etc.) are all really good boards. Once you get up to high end boards, it comes down to personal preference. Wha tshape do you like better, rocker, thickness, etc.

Yah not to mention wood boards will never delam, rails won't break, and they're harder to snap.

**hobo** · 08-04-2006, 05:23 PM

i heard this asian kid by the name of grahamhsu makes hella good boards.

you should make a board that fits your sport a little better, skrobo. like a hybrid between an inland board and an ocean board.

Don't get a skimboard save your money to buy yourself a good pair of slacks or a red turtle neck shirt.

**skim007** · 08-04-2006, 09:33 PM

go buy a bucket and when you go in to a wave throw the bucket in the air and u can do like a 20 ft spray on a ripple

based on your criteria, victoria woodie. i'm absolutely serious.

**Iwantazap** · 08-04-2006, 11:16 PM

There is no best brand of board, brands dotn matter its what materials they are made of and shape that you prefer.. my fav has been my cabal out of cabal, zap, victoria and meyer. have yet to ride an exile.

**narwhal** · 08-05-2006, 01:43 AM

Relic.

**Pat-Juh** · 08-05-2006, 01:54 AM

like what let fire fall said... it's all pref once you get up to the high-end boards..

**George Bush** · 08-05-2006, 06:54 AM

My wife Miss Bush makes great boards. She can make them hard like a rock so they dont snap. Just tell me what you need and shell make it for you in no time.They even can make you spray super hard

haha i ended up laughing until about 2/3 of the way through this thread, but I got to thinking... there has to be some stronger foam, that isn't too much heavier that they could make skimboards out of that would be unbreakable, what about the stuff they make wakeboards out of, i think Vic uses the same kind of stuff but weaker, but my point, why not make a board that is unbreakable, yet light (foamy), and rides well
it seems like there would be many by now

and don't get too excited, this is when I quit laughing

One word: kook.

If there was this "magical foam" it would already be used. Skimboars don't even break that often if you take care of them and ride it correctly.

**undertheradar** · 08-05-2006, 11:42 PM

Nothing is unbreakable in heavy shorebreak. Until some new mystery material is discovered on some distant planet, the skim coompanies areworking the best suited material available.

dude keep in mind when your wacking 15 foot high sprays off some intense ripples...you go through quite a few boards
