For something often considered as a petty beach
activity done on the shallowest of waters, skimboarding poses a lot
of risks—skin lacerations, bruises, broken bones, twisted
ankles—just like skateboarding or biking. But the sport’s
continuing rise in popularity attests to its lasting appeal. This
may not be as glamorous as surfing, windsurfing or water skiing, but
skimboarding has been making waves among water sports enthusiasts
lately.
Skimboarding combines the discipline, as well as
tricks required in skateboarding, snowboarding, and surfing. Mostly,
this sport is done by the beach where waves break to the shoreline.
