"Skimboarding" Natural Recordings by Native Speakers
Skimboarding, also known as sheet jogging or simply skimming, is a surface water sport played on a skimboard, a small, wooden board with a deck and no fins, which is used to glide across the surface of the water. The objective of skimboarding is to ride the edge of a wave or a ripple in the water, using the board to glide across the surface and perform tricks. Skimboarding is typically performed on a beach with shallow water, where the boarder can catch waves and generate speed and momentum to perform tricks and maneuvers.
