For the past few days, I’ve slowly been working on a new Skimboarding web site called Skim Shot. Skimboarding was one of my favorite sports/activities growing up. I skimmed almost every day after school until I went off to college. If Gainesville, FL was located on a beach I would have kept skimboarding until college graduation.

For those of you who don’t know what it is, let me show you an introduction video.

It’s very similar to surfing except you run into the wave from the shore instead of just floating out there in the water.

There isn’t much on Skim Shot yet because it’s still a work in progress. I’m hoping since skimboarding isn’t that big (at least compared to other extreme sports like surfing or skating) that there is still a place for my site to grow in the skimming community. I’ve basically got the design set up, added some videos and pictures, and made a welcome post. I plan on having up to date contest information/results and even board reviews. I’ll also blog a couple times a week about what’s going on in the industry or give skimboarding tips. If traffic ever gets to like 200-300 uniques/day I’ll probably add a forum.

So check it out, let me know what you think. This is one of my newest projects so I’ll be working on it quite a bit over the next week or so.
