Di ako nag susurf man(though gusto ko subukan) skimboard lang.. Polilio island native si ermats ko, at may bahay kami sa infanta kaya anytime maisipan at libre sched. Pumupunta kami dun, matagal ko na gusto dumaan diyan sa the park kaso di kp parin magawa, pag summer naman walang waves..

[Garner]

Tara wakeboard tayo sa Nuvali! Sino may sasakyan? Share share sa gas hehe! Or sino dito taga Zambales or malapit sa Ternate Cavite?

I tried skimboarding naman, a month ago... Awesome water-board sport, comparable to wakeboarding.
Except lang sa skimboarding, you get your speed & ride the water all by yourself.
After the day, my whole body was aching, mostly my feet. But it was total fun nonetheless.

Planning to get a 2nd hand wave-skimboard.

Mas okay to pang exercise haha! Running most of the time hehe. I would say harder din kasi medyo matigas babagsakan hehe, and definitely cheaper! Hehe Wood ba plan mo kunin? Or foamies?

[inot1105]

hi Garner,

i'm preferring the foamies or epoxy boards (not sure what foamies mean, sorry) ... para pwede sa flat & wave.
wooden wakeboards can only ride on flats.

after trying flat & wave type boards, i prefer the wave riding, mas exciting and pwede din sa flat ang wave type boards.
unlike the wood boards, na pang flat lang.

i sound redundant, sorry

but i'm only eying 2nd hand stuff, coz these water sport boards are way too expensive than my skate setups.
like 1 brand new wave wakeboard can buy 2 top-of-line brand skateboard completes... dang.

Haha! sinabi mo pa! Well you're actually on the right track, 'foamies' are often being used to ride waves. Medyo brittle kasi if you use it for tricks/freestyles (compared to wood). Though there are pro riders na gumagamit ng wood and when you see them play, they ride like surfers! Haha! You can check Mad Kahuna sa Cubao Expo, I think they make affordable foamies. Meron din sa Zambales(Jaro Man) and Bicol(Victor John Orendain IV) na gumagawa ng murang wood and foamies.
Enjoy with your wave searching bro.

wow thanks for upping this. namiss ko mag skim.

the woodie i got from Mad Kahuna is still alive. tabi ko na lang for house display ganda ng paintjob e.

will be looking for another woodie again. ngayon, yung sakto na sa weight and height ko para di mahirap dalhin.

and im thinking i'll be back to square one - failing board drops, no wave rides, etc.

Uy bihira ako makakita ng gusto ang flatland skimboarding like my cousin and I. I worship John Minns youtube vids (Kayotics)hahhah Im such a wannabe.

When I was super noob, I used to think of flatland skimboarding is "the real" way to skimboard and yung wave skimboarding is for wannabe surfers lang hahah. Nasira na lahat ng DIY wood board namin (yung iba coated with polytuff (pardon the spelling, yung parang masilya na pink) and one with resin). Gusto ko na ngayon magpatuloy magaral ng wave rides.... GASsing for St Joe Skimboards, been lurking their fb page every once in a while. Also followed skimboarding pages sa fb, ganda ng posts ng Exile Skimboarding

[marzi]

^hehe napanood mo yung biggest wave ride in skimboard na pinost ng Exile dati? man, napanganga ako sa loob ng fx nun hehe.

i just learned by watching tutorials in youtube at kasama na din yung skateboarding history ko. di ako naka execute ng perfect trick in skimboard at yung mga nilaruan ko eh yung mga popular beaches(bora, galera, etc). nakadagdag din sa hirap ng laro ko yung oversized na board na binili ko. may isang beses pa pinaringgan ako nung australian dude na pinapanood lang ako sa shore habang nagpapahirap ako mag skim hehe. sabi mali daw yung way ng pag takbo at drop ko ng board. too bad i never had a chance to talk to him, mukang madaming alam.

babalik talaga ako sa ganito. lalo ngayon dumami na ang local makers.

[jepbueno]

^oo nga marami nang local makers! nung time namin noong college hanggat maari every weekend kami. sa local beach (Bagasbas beach - ganda ng seashore namin ) in camnorte (pero di kami nakikijam sa iba kaya di kami gumagaling hahaha) si Garner sa taas na post from my province din yata siya alam ko sila ung magagaling na tropa hehe (at least compared samin haha).

Ang kaya ko lang is pseudo wave ride and shove it. On good times pop (mababa lang) shove it hahah. minsan naghihilahan pa kami parang wakeboard lang! sabay subsob maaahitan ng balahibo gawa ng buhangin.

[marzi]

^swerte kayo dahil ang lapit nyo lang sa dagat na may makinis na shoreline. pinakamalapit na beach na mapupuntahan ko eh cavite. at di na ko sigurado kung same group pa rin ang makakalaro ko. balita ko nagtutunog skateboard trash talk types na din ang karamihan ng mga naglalaro ngayon so im hoping that i get to hang out with a nice group in the future.

i like playing rough so i never bothered wearing rashguards. kung masusugatan, masusugatan.

Naligaw ako nung isang araw sa Makati. Merong isang stall paglampas ng Mayapis na nagbebenta ng second hand boards. Skim, surf, etc etc. Ralph, please confirm if hindi ako namalikmata sa nakita ko kasi nakasakay ako sa bus nung nakita ko un. Babalik ako ng La Union para sumakay uli sa alon. Sino sasama?

Interesting! Sa may saan yan? Never pa ata ako nagawi diyan sa area na yan ng Makati. Balak ko rin bumili ng skimboard sa summer eh, wasak na yung ancient DIY board namin haha. 7k yung sa Saint Joe (sa fb ko lang nahanap) looks sulit, pero baka kasi may 2nd hand na Victoria. hahahha umaasa

[marzi]

Saint Joe
Sub Zero
Jaromanoy
Mad Kahuna

yan yung mga alam kong local sellers. the first three are custom makers. si Mad Kahuna din pero di ko sure kung gaano kabilis delivery nya tsaka mas mabenta sya sa branded boards.

Si Sub Zero di ko alam kung active pa. kausap ko dati yan sa OLX ko lang nakita. Sta Mesa yata naka base.

dun sa apat si Saint Joe at Jaromanoy yung mabenta.

at ang obese ko na. di na siguro ako kaya ng ordinaryong board haha
