for sure, place the board wouldn't have that really skatey feel that makes skim boarding so much fun. Speaking of shallows, the tide was racing out of the astoria ponds and we ended up skim boarding in literally 1" of water.
I was like "i can't edge, why can't i edge" I looked down and realized there was virtually no water under me. Super fun with really interesting mud-butt slide starts  |

Here's your bar of soap. Probably before your time

I broke some ribs riding that board at the Hatch. Supa fast and loose 
I think Lou rode it strapless. The first kite skate. Lou is a god. Mega Respect. |

Fins can be useful.....a skim with some small rear fins can be epic on a smaller wave day at the coast  |
