About this blank:
Make your own foam skimboard for wave riding and skimming flat sand as well.
EPS Foam Skimboard blanks are supplied at 1 1/4" thick or 2" thick. Thicker skimboards float really well and glide you out into the waves easier. Thinner skims will carve into the wave easier but you can shape the skimboard rails thin for that bite into the wave and retain the float to skim long and far.

3 Steps to Order:
1. Select Your Blank Length in the Drop Down Menu
2. Select Your Blank Thickness in the Drop Down Menu
No power planer needed if you order your blank around 1/4" thicker than your final shape. You'll quickly lose that 1/4" of foam when scrubbing the blank and rolling your rails into the deck when shaping. Or you can order a blank thicker to practice shaping and have plenty of foam to play with.
3. Select the STRINGER OF YOUR CHOICE in the Drop Down Menu
If you're not adding a wood or High Density Foam stringer we recommend using carbon fiber reinforcements with stringerless blanks for flex control and strength.
