Well, you'll have fun wave riding on a skimboard.. ;)

I checked the board (yes, only 1) at the shop in Villaggio and it's too light. I'm gonna buy a victoria foamie online for around QR 500.

The big sport shop in Villaggio (just towards the food area).

It's a wooden board... not sure if it's good though. Are you one for flat land or wave riding?

Let me know when you're hitting the waves.
