Hybrid AK Shape
The AK shape is new to our lineup for 2020, although Austin has been testing them for well over a year. This shape features the overall dimensions and shape of a comparable hybrid shape, but has the tail of the next size down. For instance a Medium AK shape would be the same shape and dimensions as a Medium Hybrid, EXCEPT it has the tail of a Medium Small. This subtle difference makes for a board that’s slightly more maneuverable, especially in better wave conditions. Austin seems to love it so far and we hope you do too!

Double Carbon Fiber Epoxy Construction
This is the board that changed it all. Many have tried to copy this board, all have failed. Unlike most skimboard companies, the most popular board we sell is also the most expensive board we sell. Why you ask? 'Cause it’s just that good. The perfect balance of weight, strength and stiffness combine to make the most popular high-end skimboard ever. Every trick in the book, with no corners cut make this the best value in skimboarding. We have customers still riding these boards from when our company was founded in 2002. You want the best? This is it. Come and get it!
Carbon Fiber is practically synonymous with top of the line in any industry. This fabric is highly coveted for its extreme strength and stiffness. Exile uses only Aerospace Grade Carbon Fiber and Epoxy resin, making these boards stronger, stiffer and lighter than our fiberglass boards. Truly the best skimboard money can buy and the trusted construction of all our top Professional riders.

5/8" Thickness
5/8" thickness is our thinnest core we offer. The thinner core creates an incredibly responsive skimboard that excels in average to great wave conditions. The thinner core does come at the cost of a little buoyancy.
Hybrid Rocker
The Hybrid Rocker is what we put on 90% of the boards we produce, and is the most versatile skimboard rocker for skimming anything from the Gulf Coast of Florida to Cabo. It clocks in roughly at 2.25" in the nose and about .125" in the tail with a fairly good size flat spot in the middle of the board. This allows the board to transition from sand to water easily, be super fast, and turn on a dime. If you aren't sure, this would be our pick!
Standard Build
Our industry leading standard build
NT Finish™
This finish combines the strength of our classic textured finish, with great cosmetics for improved looks with no compromise in strength. Some sanding required for proper traction adhesion.
Flat Deck
This deck option is the standard skimboard deck option seen on most skimboards.
