Video Summary
AI GeneratedThe video follows the testing of a new custom skimboard called the \"Catalina Flyer\" at Tortuava. The creator discusses the board's unique squash-tail design and \"GOAT construction\" before hitting the waves with friends to test its performance, culminating in successful rides and a Black Friday sale announcement for his merchandise.
Oh my gosh, you're kidding me!
Come on, Raza!
I think I'm going to call it the Catalina Flyer.
Alright, Skyrock.
We're here at Tortuava.
Pretty much all-time torts right now.
Small, but as beautiful as it gets.
And we have our buddy Adrian Raza.
He's on the way.
And a new skimboard to try out.
Which we are going to show you a little sneak peek of right now.
Sanding it down so that the pads stick really nicely.
It's just going to be one heck of a day.
I need help for a name for this little thing.
I think I'm going to call it the Catalina Flyer.
This thing's just going to be the best board I've ever made for pointing out to waves.
That's the one kind of drawback of the Blair Kuda, is the little fishtail.
When you turn your board sideways, sometimes it catches water on the little tail.
The idea for this thing is if you just chop it straight off,
and you're going sideways out to a wave, you're going to be flying.
We'll see how it goes, though.
I've never ridden a squash-tailed skimboard.
I think it's going to go really well on today's conditions.
This is just turning into an oddly satisfying video.
This is the GOAT construction, which is just extra layers of carbon all around.
It's what my last board is made out of, which has lasted me almost two years now.
Did you get the same colorway for good luck?
Yeah, good luck, exactly. Can't change that.
Hi, guys.
Wow.
I've got a good feeling about this thing.
Dry off in the sun for a minute.
It's OK, it's GOAT construction. It's perfect.
It's just a test.
Just a test. Lookit.
That's what's great about skimboards, though.
If you did that with a surfboard, your surfboard would probably be dinged up and pretty devastated.
These are the bubble gum.
Let's parties.
How far back do you think we should put these things?
As far back as you can go.
Oh, boy.
Yeah, I think that's the key.
Weber, when he rides his fish, he doesn't put pads on his tail because his feet are literally...
I've watched him do turns where his feet are like...
There.
His toes are on that side of the swallow and his heels on that side.
That's ridiculous.
He's gnarly.
That's looking pretty good, though.
That looks really good.
I think I'm just gonna...
It's nice you can line it up with the rail there.
I know, the rail.
It makes it handy.
It's kind of pretty right now.
Sometimes you just gotta wing it.
I think I did a pretty good job on this one.
Holy smokes.
Probably the best I've ever winged it on one of these.
Yeah.
Looking good.
And this one, too.
Oh, no.
Find the gap.
That's too much of a gap, guys.
Oh, boy.
Don't do that when you're putting on your pads.
Here's my sock sponsor, Tack Apparel.
Shout out to Ben Kay, Santa Cruz guy.
He hooks me up with socks.
It's pretty sick.
Sock connection.
I'm flowed.
Yeah, that's good.
Oh, nice.
Another piece of sand.
Woo!
Oh!
Okay.
Sometimes it's the technique of the peel-up.
Boom!
Oh, boy.
It's all in the technique.
Oh, yeah.
Woo!
Oh, I actually kind of like it.
A whole flock of birds.
Waka-flocka.
Let's party.
She makes squashes, man.
You just squash that wave into the cave.
Freshie in the wild.
Whoa!
Who that?
Boom!
Yeah!
Easy slider.
Oh, my gosh.
You're kidding me.
Yep.
Oh, my gosh.
Roll it.
Oh, don't shimmy yourself.
I didn't shimmy.
Come on, Ronda.
Come on, Ronda!
How's it looking, fellas?
Oh, we got barreled?
We got barreled.
Woo!
You'll have to check that out on Athletes of TikTok.
What do you think, Joao?
Airwind?
Got that?
You're doing a backflip?
You're doing a backflip.
Take air, dude.
Airwind.
Oh, he's perfect at it.
Oh, it's windy.
Hey.
Oh, my Rosa grabbing rail.
It's just like that right now.
Joao, what's he got?
No way!
What?
Oh!
Yeah!
Pretty good for a Portuguese.
A true athlete.
I look blonde.
I kind of wanted to dye my hair.
Oh, my God.
Is it a good look?
It's a good look.
Kind of a good look.
All right, all right.
Stay still.
Looks like your hair, bro.
