Hi Steemit,
Like I already mentioned, I am a big skimboarding fan.
I love going to the beach and having a fun day with some friends skimboarding.
I now have three skimboards that I use for skimboarding flatland or wave.
I bought my first board when I was 10, this board I do not have anymore because I used it so much that it wasn't usable anymore.
Then I wanted to get a little more serious and bought an intermediate level board which was for wave riding. This is the grey ''Victoria skimboards'' board (as seen on the picture below). This board is made out of fiber glass and is a great board to start learning how to do ride waves. I added traction pads to have a better grip. But since it is still pretty heavy, it is not the best for reaching waves further!
But this board is specially for wave riding and I wanted a board for flatland skimboarding too! That's why I bought another board from the brand DB skimboards. This is a special board that is a lot heavier and therefore is better for flatland skimboarding. It has great traction because the full board is lined with the traction pad. This makes it easier to land tricks.
But after some time I wanted to have a better wave riding board. Because I am a big fan of the Victoria skimboards company, I chose to buy another wave riding board there. They have an option where you can customize your own board. I chose a full poly carbon fiber skimboard and I customized the design. I love the colors red and black and I wanted to have nice traction pads on the board too. I also chose to have the diagonal lines on the bottom, the ''P'' and the '' Victoria'' logo on the board.
I can't wait to get out to the beach and skimboard again! I haven't been skimboarding for a few months since it is winter time now but this summer I will be on the beach again a lot!
On the picture below you can see the three boards together! Please tell me what you think about the boards and if you like the design of my custom Victoria skimboard.
Stay tuned for more posts on skimboarding!
Have a nice day further!

These are really cool! Come out here to California, winter skimming is going off and it was 90 degrees the last few days. I'm about an hour north of Laguna Beach (Victoria skimboards) and i shoot skimboarding all the time.Mostly the Wedge in summer and Seal Beach in winter.

Thank you! I really wish I could come to California... But it won't be possible for me since I have to attend university here in The Netherlands! I hear about winter skimming in Cali and that it should be amazing! I really hope to be able and go to California for some time when I finish my education here!
I am following you already and would certainly love to see some skimming action on your blog!

Nice I am excited to see them! Well here in The Netherlands we do have some waves but they aren't even close to being as perfect as you find them in Cali! Still skimboarding here is fun too ;)
