This skimboard is a blast! The grip is awesome, it feels super sturdy, and the color is spot on with the picture. I'm planning on taking it to the dunes soon, so I'll really get to see what it can do!

I’m impressed with the Own the Wave Hang Loose Skimboard. The quality of the board is fantastic, and the EVA grip pad offers exceptional traction, making it easy to ride. These high-quality materials will ensure lasting for years. No waxing is needed, and the smooth bottom offers a great glide without any extra products. The nose rocker provides a smooth, consistent ride. It's durable, lightweight, and perfect for both kids and adults. The only thing I’d wish for is a carrying case for easier transport. Overall, this board is a fantastic value and I highly recommend it for family beach fun!

Would probably be heavy for a young kid to use but fine for a teen or adult. Seems kind of big but I'm not a skim-board expert. Comes to about my waist (I'm 5'5").

I really enjoy skim boarding and this board makes it fun! The traction is great, the board feels durable, and the color is exactly as it looks. I plan to go on the sand dunes so we’ll see how it does.

The board is well-constructed for the price, and the foam grip is a nice touch—no need for wax. I've used it a couple of times and it's holding up well. We’re careful to avoid letting it get knocked around in the waves too much. The 35" size is recommended for users 80 lbs to 150 lbs. For my son, who weighs around 100 lbs, it’s perfect. I weigh about 160 lbs, and while I still enjoy using it, my rides are noticeably shorter before sinking into the sand. I’m currently searching for a board better suited for myself. If you're closer to 150 lbs, I highly recommend getting the bigger size.

This is a very sturdy product! The grip pad offers perfect traction and the colors themselves are very vibrant. The nose rocker can really make a difference in obtaining a smoother, more controlled ride. Overall, I'm very pleased with this board. We'll see how it holds up over time!

We really liked the quality of this board. We have seen several with the top surface pulling away from the wood.The wood has a nice finish…only time will tell how durable it is and we will update our review later.The shape is nice and a great width. The kids are looking forward to lots of use!
