Check out my updated How To Skimboard Playlist here: ru-vid.com/group/PLmyiCVyoKlHLSUgMluNy6yqJ4qJrvpt99

I caught a wave every time his intro played... now I’m a pro skimboarder

Intro played 1000009.3 times

I think you should’ve plugged that logo a few more times

I'm glad you explained how to drop in the wind. I've seen so many videos that say just drop never throw the board down and every time I would run fast with a good breeze coming from the ocean my board would turn into a kite and try to kill me

I dont think you plugged in that logo enough

Take a shot every time the logo plays

Does it work if someone doesn't yell 1234 before I go?

1 2 3 FOW

Man if that intro wasn't there, I don't think I could learn.

Get wasted fast: take a shot of whiskey every time the logo plays

Really straightforward explanation, especially the 1 step from behind approach to the board. Thanks, now I really want to try this! Wait 'till the locals kids see my 60 year old frame out there!

Alright to skimboard I have to say 1 2 3 4 then do it then I bet I'll totally get it

I wanna see some tutorials on how you wrap! A 1 2 3 4

watched your youtube videos and taught myself to skimboard this summer. went from a wooden board chasing after it to a one step drop with a well fit pro board. I just want to say thank you and great advice, 27 year old in new england and never too late to learn a new passion! catching those waves is an indescribable feeling!

Every time the intro comes on I have a dance party 🎊🤪

I wish I watched this before I did the splits 20 times trying to go front foot first.

1 2 3 4

He played that intro like 47 times

*I gotta try skimboarding!*

Thank you for a very insightful video. God bless you.

Great lesson!

I think skimboarding is more fun then surfing. Idk I am going to skimboard soon 😍

Thank you so much for this!!!! I just can’t figure it out but this helping

This was super helpful! I’ve never had the chance to really try skimming (I don’t count once on a wooden board that was as big as me when I was ten lol), but I’ve been wanting to for a while. I’m hoping to use skimming to eventually become more comfortable in the water so I can try surfing.

Tanks for the tips

Now i want to do SkimBoarding it looks fun!

great teaching

So glad I came across you on Instagram love the work.

Thanks awesome tutorial

very helpful

Do you have a Twitter? I grew up skim boarding and have a major passion for it. I just always through it ran super fast and jump in both feet at the same time to get a super good run. My wife showed me this video so I can learn how to do it the proper way. Did the slow little run to attempt this and completely failed. Somehow my foot got caught in the sand because the rip currents were super bad so it was causing divots in the sand and I completely snapped my ankle super bad. In the hospital right now awaiting surgery in the morning. Super bummed. Would love to send you a picture LOL but regardless still love you and your videos. I will definitely be attempting this again when I heal ❤️✌️-Kayla

1234

I admired you secretly at Aliso two weeks ago Austin ;)

I got a cira c60 with back and front deck, its also personalized, do you think its good?

I have a cheauo wooden board, is it possible to go further than 2 meters with one of these

What kind of skimboard are you using. Like what material is it made of.

If you ride goofy, and are a beginner to skimboarding, do I still have to plant my left foot on the back first? Or can I do what feels natural and plant my right foot at the front of the board first?

What are the cons of using a wooden surfboard? Can you ride it out into the waves like you can on a foam one?

What type of traction pad should I get

intro after intro

Ok, yes the intro played a few times and was kind of annoying 🙄 But did any of you realize it was spelled wrong? Tutiorial not tutorial 🤣 lmao AK you are awesome 👌 Love the content, keep it coming 👏

Anyway to link to your board shorts?

I notice this beach has a sharp drop to the water is that what you look for skimboarding? I've never tried it

One Two Three *ALA HAQ BAR*

Do you throw the board down, Guy with dreads says “I just kinda do that swinging thing with my arms ya know” like that

How do you get your board to slide. is there something you need to put on it? Because I place it on the wet sand and it just stays there. So do I need to add something to the bottom of the board to make it slide

Can i use a skate deck to skimboard?

Anybody got any recommendations for a beginner spot in NorCal bodega Bay Area

guys a helpful tip is when you get on the boa-ONE TWO THREE FO!

I've been skimboarding for almost 8 years and one of my problems is the wind especially when I'm drooping the board....and I just wanna ask if the wind is a big problem in other skimboarders out there....and i need some few tips in drooping the board even tho its windy...

Brazilian here like bro

Which size is your board M or L

We get it you like your intro

I'm your biggest fan where do you live so you can teach me to skim.I live in boca raton.

@Austin Keen i get on the board with my front foot first because my foot stance is goofy is that bad?

running swing ;)

What board does the other guy have

In total that intro was played 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 times

Do I approach the board also from the left side when I'm goofy? Or from the right side?

1234 kid rock knows how to skim board.

Can this board float on water? can i go deeper with it?

Salvee

You played 1 2 3 fowww 10000000000000000.56 times

I think they were meant to be separate videos that’s why the logo kept popping up.

Do u work at dream sea u like familiar

Before knocking this skimboarding tips video, can anyone show another that's better? Well spoken and to the point! I wish someone showed me these tips when I was learning . Though I was hoping you'd explain the monkey craw drop, I still have trouble being consistent with that one.

I wonder if he has an intro

Hey dude great video Im a begginer at skimboarding but im also a youtuber and i think you should just have number or words not a full intro
