to 27 million surfer’s world wide‚ and about 10 to 15 million skimboarders. Surfing is the term used for a surface water sport in which the person surfing moves along the face of a breaking ocean wave. Skimboarding is a board sport in which a skim board (a smaller‚ sleeker version of a surfboard) is used to ride on an incoming wave. Clearly people choose more to surf than to skim.
