Nobile Skim is a great board to have fun in light winds and on small waves. It provides a lot of fun and joy, you can also train on this light wind freestyle and work on your strapless position. Deck of the board is covered with anti-slippery EVA foam. Optional fin mounting can give you better tracking and upwind ability. However riding without fins allow you to ride on really shallow water and gives you skatier feel. It is a great choice for riders on every level as it gives a lot of fun in any given conditions.
