Swell Saturday: Tow-In Skimboarding 10+ Foot Barrels…

SnowBrains | | Post Tag for SurfSurf

{Every Saturday, weโ€™re going to attempt to inspire you to get out and surf with a sharp Surf video that will speak to your heart. ย SwellBrains.com is coming soonโ€ฆ}

As far as we know this hasnโ€™t been done before. ย Yeah, guys have towed in to waves on skimboards, but they werenโ€™t waves like this. ย A few of the barrels in this video are 10+ feet and thatโ€™s enormous.

The balance necessary to pull off a move like this is mind blowing. ย With no fins, itโ€™s very tough to hold a rail and get down the line. ย On the other hand, having no fins allows a skimboard to have much less drag than a surfboard which translates to more speed. ย You can tell in a few of these shots that this kids is maching.

This is big.
This is big.
