Ok, I got "The Blimp" shape and It is awesome especially for the price! I thought it would be heavy but it was actually pretty light (but I would still prefer this board in the wind). It floated allot which was a really nice surprise. I must say that I was delighted with how awesome it felt Sideslipping out on a wood board and getting the wave. It was possibly the best price+performance+fun ratio you could get on a skim because I now know that wood rides much different than foam but still works well. If you wanted to try wood and have a good time I would recommend because its reasonably priced.
P.S. I contacted them for the checkered board design which might cost a few dollars more for a custom design and take a couple weeks but that's what I did.
Here's the bottom.....

.... Black is not suggest for a skimboard because bottom gets scratched and the wax looks nast..... but now I know

Colours are very clean and vibrant, its difficult to capture them in by shitty camara but there are really beatiful.
Im waiting for white Follow the tripod pads, bottom colour of the board is dark green (not to dark but much more darker than the top of the board). Bag is from a brand "Drop" from Chile, very cheap and quality is very good.
