We have 4 people confirmed for the trip this year; Matt, Mark, Adam & Dan, who are all hoping for some fun on the legendary liners. That’s not to mention the superb French beer/wine, baguettes, croissants and happy times with our host Eric, and the rest of the French skim crew.

This year’s dates are the Tuesday 7th April to Tuesday 14th April. If you want to join us at this late stage, there is still time, so call the shop on 08452 037546 and will be happy to give you the ferry times and details you will need.

Video: Tow skimboarding/bodyboarding on snow!

March 11, 2009

Following on from last week’s video; bodyboarding on snow, we have just uploaded another snow video to the Sandskater You Tube Channel.

The video was filmed on Dartmoor at the height of the snowy period in February 2009. Most of the moor was only accessible to 4×4’s, so we took advantage of the conditions and got a load of the Sandskater crew together and towed them behind a Land Rover on skimboards and bodyboards.

This 8 minute video is the result:

Video: Bodyboarding on snow

March 6, 2009

A few of the crew headed up to Dartmoor this week to get in some snow bodyboarding.

We used a few Circle One bodyboards, which work really well on snow and headed to a nice steep hill with a natural drop off.

We then built a compacted snow launch ramp, and then threw ourselves down the hill on bodyboards.

The result is these photos & video:

Banshee Bungee has arrived!

November 6, 2008

Banshee Bungee Pro Beach PackageWe have taken delivery this week of the fantastic new Banshee Bungee!

Basically, its a 20ft long bungee rope that can be stretched to over 200ft, and launch you at over 30mph! Some of the bungee packages come with 2 or 3 bungee ropes, so you can link a few bungees together to get an even faster & longer pull.

When used with the correct anchor, it can allow skimboarders to reach waves further out that wouldn’t be reachable with just running and side slipping.

But it doesn’t stop there. Banshee Bungee packages can be used to give a boost to any kind of board sport. You can use it with skateboards, snowboards, wakeboards & wake skates, to name a few. The possibilities are endless!

Lets take a closer look into the world of Banshee Bungee…
