Scooting Along On Cool Skimboards

Maybe you want to be a surfer, but you have no beach nearby. Maybe you want to be a snow boarder, but you have no snowy mountains. Well, can you find a wet spot somewhere? Can you find a decent mud puddle or something? Because the thing for you to try is skimboards.

One of these cool tools is just what it sounds like. It is a board you skim on, over shallow spots of water. It is an absolute blast, full on fast, and cuckoo crazy fun. Anyone can make one, and anyone can use one. It is a whole new school of cool for you to try.

It really is a rush, and really could not be simpler. These are perfect at the beach when the waves are flat, or on the lake when the boat is low on gas. If you trucks are wasted on the skate, toss the wood instead. Low tech can make for some high times, all right?

To make your own, just root around and find an old piece of plywood. Cut it into a two or three foot circle, or big enough to stand on with both feel firmly planted. That is the whole of it. If you have the stuff, fiberglass it or seal it with urethane or shellac it. You can even wax if it that pops your cork.

Get some paint, or some crayons, or whatever you can scrounge up and decorate it. Put you name on it, or carve it if they will let you handle sharp tools. At least put your name on the thing so someone does not take it for a dog house door or something.

Then go out and find that little bit of water you need. Wear old clothes because you will fall down, go boom, and get wet and dirty. And you will have fun. Skimboards are simple to make, gravy to use, and quick to master. Easy is rarely so much fun.
