why cant you skim in the snow?
ive never seen that before.....is there like ice in the water?
or is it just o cold.
I feel your pain. The season is over for me too as I cant run well in a wetsuit.
Sorry the season is over for you. But between living room seshs, sno seshs and the occasional fapping to Brazil and Santa Cruz pics on SOMB, I think we can make it to next season.
Skimmin in the snow is sweet. Get an old board and go to town. You can mix it up with some 2x4s or 2x6s to make some grind rails.
That is awesome.

many people skim in snow from our nj thread. i dont because i have no ride but i think it would be sweet. and the water isnt frozen and the slope has some sand
Yea, isnt it when the tubes are the best up here anyway? No tourists, no lifeguards, it seems like the perfect time to go. I just cant handle the frigid.
No ride? You mean broken board or no way to get to the beach?
no way to get there. hr away, dad hates cold. yea the beach is empty and the waves are pretty clean usually
f-that but props to you guys 4 being hard core.. i bet you dont even have to worry about dry dropping the snow should slde u all the way to the waves

wherever the waves makes it to their is no snow. so the slope is generally sand so that wont work
to bad that would be kool tho . i use to live in colorado and rode my board on the slopes out there that was fun

i skimmed my wedge down a few big hills last winter and can say it's probally that most unsafe thing you can do haha

i know, i got a huge bruise on my tail bone going down a really steep street and it turned sideways and slipped out, but you fly when its real packed in and icy
hahah dude you go so fast, i can see it being easy in some nice thick powder but i was going down on some tightly packed snow about an 2 inches thick. rail cut in got stuck and i went flying.

skim season is year for me. i may only wear a spring suit 5 times a year and i still skim almost every day
kooky monster
purple snake
shhhh quiet, we were wearing fullsuits by september buttchugg dont remind us
I wonder what suits they have on to skim in the snow? a 6 or 7?
thats actually skin
didnt you know?
if you skim in the freezing ass cold enough your skin turns into 6mm thick neoprene
5/4/3's maybe
nfarino117: Do you just use a paint pen on top of the front of your board? Or do you have to take it apart?
Let Fire Fall:haha today at moes i was rolling up this guys burrito
jesus, you sure do post a lot zues... and every season up until this one Ive skimmed more in the winter than in the summer. Non blackballed beaches ftw. Now that Im getting older my stoke for skimming (especially in the cold) has dropped dramatically.
right now...with wind chill and all its an ASTOUNDING
3 degrees.
skim anyone?

just got back from long island ny a few hours ago..my first time seeing snow in a while, i stayed in hunting bay and commack...was thinking to my self it must suck for those who want to skim..
maybe global warming will set in? it certainly did for us. its december and ive only worn my full suit twice and i go skimming about 1-2times/week. pretty much trunked all of november. downfall is that its too warm to make snow, so were pretty much going into our lastest opening for resorts
i want more pics from that snow skim sesh
The J-Gordon Retro Fish is the nicest board I've ever ridden.
