Woody Hand built in the U.S.A for the past forty four years, the woody has stood the test of time. The ultimate board for learning the basics, the Woody will slide long distances along the shoreline while letting you bash small waves. The Russian birch core will take anything you throw at it, and the hand made art guarantees each board to be one of a kind.

Slider Looking

to

get

into

Flatland

skimboarding? The slider is the perfect board for a beginner to intermediate flatland rider ready to improve his/ her skills. Durable, fast, and easy to ride make it a must have board for any aspiring flatland rider. A step up from the flimsy wood boards you started on, the Slider is the board you need to get serious about learning flatland skimboarding.

Foamie 2.0

It’s back! The FOAMIE 2.0 is the most affordable foam core of our line. More surface area than wood with less weight makes foam cores the preferred choice of beginning to intermediate riders. Extra rockered nose is handy for learning how to navigate the sand to water transitions. Great low price!

Glide Packing as much performance as possible into this little shred stick, the Glide puts a board under the intermediate rider’s feet using technology found throughout the entire Victoria line. By utilizing a wider shape, the Glide toes the line between speed and maneuverability and allows the rider to reach more waves.

Ultra The Ultra has been long considered the pinnacle

of

Skimboards.

intermediate Combining

performance premium

materials with state of the art production, the Ultra features a wider outline, allowing the rider to maximize carry and float while still being able to throw it under the lip. With customizable color ways, the Ultra can be built to match your steeze, getting you off your beach towel and into the water.

Poly

Time tested under the feet of legends, and ushering in the new guard of riders such as Teddy Vlasis, Johnny Salta, and Max Bourne, the Poly has been ridden in the heaviest conditions and has led our athletes to the top of countless contest podiums around the globe. Featuring a high density foam core, industry standard E-Glass, the Poly rises above the rest as one of the fastest, most responsive boards on the market. Being completely customizable, the Poly can be tailored to fit the conditions you ride in every day.

Paddy Mack After riding the classic shape for 10 years Paddy transitioned to the LIFT Shape. He created a shape built for speed, float, and control in any kind of conditions. He is known for his powerful wraps in heavy shorebreak, technical tricks and airs. He created this resin art that has been very popular amongst the Skim community for years. We are pleased to introduce his signature pro model for 2021.

2021 Johnny Salta

Johnny

has

been

experimenting

with different board shapes and dimensions anticipating the idea of the ultimate universal board.

This board is Poly Carbon Classic shape with 3/4″ thickness. Tapered down rails both in the nose and tail in order to gain more control and agility. He is known to plane out to far out breaks.

Teddy Vlasis Teddy rides a size or two above the average board size to allow him to reach much larger waves further out.
