The internet for some reason is really lacking skim tutorials, Blair is the hero we need.

Skim boarding is such a great sport. Very underrated.

Awesome.im 61 and have still pics of me skimming wedge in the late 60's through the 70's on a bon aire plastic skimmer....The ones with the handles. ...lolololol i used to be the only skimmer for many yrs in seal beach on south side all the way to ventura county.i have pics of me skimming a papio board as a very young kid on waikiki bch.i really love how skimming have as evolved to what it is today and its because of you young guys pushing it further, keep the great attitudes and tgak you from an old skimmer.funny story...an old kneeboarder named ron romanowski once took my skimmer(the bon aire) from me at the wedge and flung way WAY out because he hated me skimming there lolololol i was bout 13yrs old lololol....i swam out got it and kept skimming....he was pissed lolololol

I've been an avid surfer since I was 10, which was 25 years ago and I never understood how skimboarders could do these things. Great vid

[quicksloth]

Blair dude you've opened me up to a new passion man. I'm itching to get a skimboard thinking of trading my Surf board but I still want that. Every video of yours brings back my passion for the water dude, I used to skimboard with my body board before I could surf and you just keep reminding me how endless the adventure is thank you bru!

[williametzler]

If only I went to the beach more then once a year D; Luckily I can skim when it rains a lot and a stream floods on the grass. No waves, but if it rains enough, water runs down a hill and you can go down that. These videos are making me pumped for this year tho!

[christopherrivers]

Finally!!! A pro skimboarder actually made an informative video on every step in order to skim the way you could ever imagine. Nice. Thanks bruh!!!

[londonscarabin]

What’s up Blair. I’m currently in Hong Kong and meeting up with a skimmer (Victorisskimboardshk) that I met at the Exile Oktoberfest last year. What a great sport connecting people all over the world! Keep it up my friend.

Me and my brothers have been trying to do this and couldn’t figure out how and now we know, thanks!

[s.l.b.lemaitre]

Yes a new tutorial ! I’m from France and I start skimboarding in December, your videos help me a lot. Great edit I hope you will continue your videos.

[harryknowlson]

I love your videos and the fact that you’re giving back to society but without self promotion and you do it for others and not yourself.

[samsonbrothers]

You guys are the most real authentic YouTube channel.
I play and make music but I am a huge fan!
If you guys ever want some free music made for your videos, my brother and I produce all sorts of genres on ableton and would love to make a track for one of your epic videos.
Anyway, thank you for entertaining us all and it’s awesome even if you don’t skim!
You guys are the best!
👌😁🇿🇦🔥
