Skimboarding Skimboarding or skimming is a board sport in which a skimboard is used to glide across the water's surface. Unlike surfing, skimboarding begins on the beach by dropping the board onto the thin wash of previous waves. There are 9 steps in Skimboarding: First, Find a good location or a good beach, preferably very powerful shore break and steep slope for wave skimming. Second, buy a board and surf wax. Third, find a good skim spot. Fourth, get in shape. Keep your leg and back muscles stretched, warm and strong to avoid injuries. Fifth, hold your board, preferably with the one hand on the back tail and one hand on the side rail halfway up the board in front of you. If you're just going flat along the sand, wait until the last wave to come in is sucking back out. Sixth, when you have some speed, drop your board flat out in front of you on this thin coating of water. The easiest way to do this is to get low to the ground and slide it out in front of you. Seventh, Get on the board. The only correct way to get on the board is to “run” onto it. Eigth, Skim Away. You just go until you stop, you can stay straight, but you can kick it up a notch by skimming waves. Lastly, Pick out a good wave. You’ll need a wave that you can reach. Without good wave judgment, even the best skimboarder will have problems and have a tendency to fall in the water. Skimboarding is the best reason to get out and enjoy the sun, meet some new people, and a cool sport that will make the beach even more special. Therefore, it’s good to learn this 9 steps or atleast try skimboarding if you want to have fun in the beach at the same time meet new

    Greg Critser lives in Pasadena, California, and writes regularly for USA Today and the Los Angeles Times on issues of nutrition, health, and medicine. An authority on the subject of food politics, Critser has been interviewed by PBS and other media, and his writ­ing on obesity earned him a James Beard nomination for best feature writing in 1999. Embarrassed by a passing motorist who shouted "Watch it, fatso," Critser went on a diet and lost forty pounds. In the process he discovered that in America, weight is a class issue—fat and poor often go together. In exposing the heavy truths about American obesity, Critser gives our bloated nation a wake-up call. His books include Fat Land: How Americans Became the Fattest People in the World (2003) and Generation Rx: How Prescription Drugs Are Altering American Lives, Minds, and Bodies (2005).…

    In the video I frequently had difficulty catching waves because of my poor paddling technique. Short slow wide paddling strokes caused very little movement and propulsion through the water, which resulted in me falling off of a lot of waves. There are two biomechanical principles that help explain propulsive forces produced by a surfer when paddling through the water, these include:…

    Surfers need something to do when there isn't any waves. Surfers experimented with boats for example. That's how sports like wakeboarding and kneeboarding were invented. "Wakeboarding came onto the scene in the 1980s when surfers started hitching rides on boats with a rope, similar to waterskiing” (Winkler1). Wakesurfing is similar to wakeboarding.…

    Surfing is a popular sport, in fact more like a culture, in New Jersey. Come summer, everybody, pro or a rookie, hits the waves. Surfing is serious business for them. So much so, that they have a certain set of unspoken rules when it comes to surfing. One of the most important ones is to never beak someone else’s surf. This is mainly due to two reasons. One, someone may get hurt in the process. And two, it just discredits you as an ethical surfer (trying to steal someone else’s wave, really!).…
