Advanced Skimboarding Moves
| Aerial |
An aerial is a move
where the skimboarder launches into the air, keeping the board
under their feet and then lands back on or in front of the wave.
Aerials can be either frontside or backside and usually occur
when the skimboarder launches off the lip, soaring over the top
of the wave. If the skimmer doesn't launch off part of the
wave but merely 'ollies', that doesn't count, sorry... Skimming
301 is a tutorial on how to do an Aerial |
| Aerial Shuvit |
Doing a shuvit while
doing an aerial. Although you can do these straight off
the back of the wave, it does not count as an advanced maneuver
unless you land and keep on riding. |
| 360 Aerial |
A 360 Aerial is just
like a regular aerial except the skimboarder spins 360 degrees
with his board while in the air. You have to land back on
the wave or in front of the wave. Landing behind the wave
doesn't count. |
