Everybody learns to body surf as a kid. You learn to paddle with the waves and if you get it just right they will chuck you right up on to the beach. Feeling the power of the surf pull you along is an energizing experience that never gets old. That is the same feeling you'll get from one of the newest board sports, skimboarding. It's essentially a mixture of surfing and skateboarding. We went to Alley Oop's free skimboarding clinic held just up the road from their shop on New Orleans Ave in Dewey Beach, Delaware to check it out this past Saturday. Alley Oop offers the free clinics every Saturday from 9-10am throughout the whole summer and that's just the scratching the surface of their offerings. They also have mini sessions, full sessions and advanced sessions to suit any skill level. So get skimming!
