Overview

A continuous core wrapped in E-glass and polyester resin, finished with TuffCoat gloss, forms this Zap Wedge skimboard. It is the small size in the Classic Series, aimed at beginners on shallow water.

Small and half an inch thick, it suits a lighter rider learning to run and drop onto the water. The listing calls the user an adult yet caps weight low, and the color is picked at random.

Who it's for

Beginners and lighter riders trying skimboarding at the shoreline. Heavier riders should choose a larger board built for their weight.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Fiberglass wrap construction
  • Thin, easy to carry
Cons
  • Low maximum weight
  • Age and weight entries conflict
  • Color is assorted

Performance notes

A continuous core with a wrapped skin gives a flat board that skims on a thin sheet of water. Rider weight matters, since a heavier rider pushes a small board through the surface.
