I had a skim board...but my parents sold it at a yard sale a few years back. I've been wanting to get one for the longest time too.

wat?
i don't skim, but i take pics... lol
EOS has some pretty good deals on boards. Steve Taylor runs the manufacturing/distribution for exile down in San Clemente. Muchu is probably the guy to talk to if you want a vic.

some wedge eye candy

lol damn david

you love my rack.

James have you checked craigslist? most people don't stick with skimboarding because it is a hard sport and takes time so sometimes you can find really good deals on craigslist for almost brand new with a few sand/rock scuffs on the them.

ya i gotta admit that. haha

ya or just go to the factory here in laguna off of laguna canyon road. they sell them for like 50 bucks less than retailers do.

umiekun · #12 (**permalink**) 06-10-2009, 02:57 AM

o yea the victoria factory right? near the main beach...That's where I got my first board and started skimming. Yea they have sick ass deals for blemishes from what I remembered. Or you can get a refurbished board that has a warranty for dirt cheap.

We should do a beach meet and then all go skimboarding, boogieboarding, etc

umiekun · #14 (**permalink**) 06-10-2009, 03:10 AM

As long as someone plans and organizes it, I am down. I nominate goodyonsen since he lives near laguna and knows the good skim spots, thousand steps and aliso

.

Fit4Trav · #15 (**permalink**) 06-10-2009, 03:14 AM

I haven't been skim boarding in years (maybe 7 or so) I'll be bad...oh well. haha

SD_MR_FIT · #16 (**permalink**) 06-10-2009, 08:58 PM

dam im not ready for aliso yet. i just jumped back on for the summer. i ate total SHIT hahaa. the good days, i was also borrowing a board that was WAY to small for me

yeah my buddy is working on a hook that he has at victoria. and my other buddy is working on a deal at exile. BOth are solid boards.

im definitely going carbo epoxy,.....vic is cheaper by 70 bucks. im just waiting to see whats up.

i was going to buy coilovers, but i like skimboarding way to much.
