Hello viewers in the O.C.

Logic here to talk about skim boards and a place located in Laguna Beach, California.

Skim Chick this forums moderator would know all about this subject but since Victoria Skim Boards is located in Skim Chicks home town.

 

The company and its creator have been making these boards since the United States Bicentennial in 1976.

A relatively small company with annual sales of 2 million dollars Logic thought the subject would be great for reading.

 

Ok the skim board was created centuries ago with no known documentation however the first skim board sport of skimming along the waters edge and break of a wave thus you glide over a slim sheet of water atop the sand gliding back to shore was recorded in Laguna Beach in 1920.

 

Though you can buy a skim board for as little as $20.00 one of these boards can cost you as much as 500.00 today with lots of models to choose from and shapes and styles will cost you the original boards in the 70's were made of nothing more then a piece of plain old plywood.

 

So if you are going to the beach around late April or May the start of beach weather and the season with children you might want to buy one of these skim boards and have go of it. It is truly a piece of California Fun.
