Almost, but not quite as gay as body boarding.

Impressive and looks like fun but worth the effort of a jetski for every surf? Draggin a kite to the beach is bad enough for me..

*Searches eBay for a skim board*
then
*Searches Wannasurf for perfect waves*

Was he paddling in at the start when it was small???

Definately suits the small waves, he was struggling with the sizier ones and it was novelty value only.

imagine the down time without the jet ski.. no leash, its bad enough with a akite on strapless and it can drag your lazy arse ashore to get your board. fnck swiming in that swell without any flotation device!

Imagine him without one... Oh wait we don't need to.
This guy pretty much just made surfers look stupid. No fins, no channels, no flotation... and he was doing stuff that all the surfers these days are trying to do. Forget the big wave stuff, even though that was also impressive, the smaller stuff was****** amazing.

p.s. I actually did just imagine him with a kite and all I saw was a terrible waste of talent.

Turns out he is just as good on a surfboard as his skim, Check out his surf edit.

Made surfers look stupid? Each to their own I guess..
I was thinking how much more fluid he would look if he was on a board with some drive (ie: fins and more volume).
If he was on a surfboard he wouldn't have to flap his arms around and wiggle along to generate speed.
The way he kills it on a skimboard, Im sure he does rip on a surfboard too!
