J. Gordon Skimboards

2012 models are OUT NOW!

New Kickflip Photos


J-Gordon Skimboards have been making high performance ocean and inland wood skimboards since 1980. Our boards were the first skimboards with flex and pop. J-Gordons are the most copied wood boards on the market. Other companies have tried to clone our boards but have always FAILED! Our boards are faster and more durable because they flex like a snowboard. The boards are constructed of a laminated hardwood with a space age plastic skin that resists scratches and dings better than conventional fiberglass.

Handcrafted by Jim, James and Jared Gordon.

Standard Skimboard

Switchblade™ is the cutting edge of flatland technology! We have been making boards for rails with flex since 1980. The flex gives the board more "pop"! The more you push on the board the more it loads up and the higher the pop! Now all our boards come with a new faster bottom. The new Switchblade™ is the quickest and deadliest board ever! Order yours today!

Switchblade™ is used mainly for flatland riding, rails and tricks.

This is what our customers think of our boards:

Gero from CA.  The Retro-Fish is a seriously legit skimboard. The best feeling in skimming in my opinion is catching a wave on a wood board. I've been waiting 27 years for that feeling! Thank you for providing a wood board to get it done! I love the fish tail, it's easy to whip that tail around and get a good snap on the wrap and throw a huge spray at the same time!!!! I can even go late, snap the tail under the lip and stay on the wave face and finish out the ride. I had so much fun and have had the biggest grin on my face for the last 2 weeks. I'll be mind skimming the last liner I caught on the Fish for the next 7 months!!!

     Thanks again for making great skimboards, Gero

Kyle from New York:  I love the way the board rides. It pops way higher than my last board and I can do shuves a lot cleaner.

Drew from Illinois: I was never able to ollie with my old boards. Your board skims way faster/longer than either of my old boards on flatland. It pops so much better than my foam board.

Patrick from New York: I tried out my board today and it's sick. It rides so smooth, so fast and has good bouyancy on the waves. Best ride of my life.

Tom from Michigan: Your board is amazing. It's easy to pop, slides great on rails and the way it glides over the water instead of plowing through is great. Keep up your amazing work.

Derek from Michigan: Big spins are a whole lot easier on it, actually everything is easier. I love the flex, and it's so good on rails. I feel I have no need for my other skims, so job well done.

Christian from Mississippi: I got my board, it's gorgeous, I'm in love with it.

Erik from Florida: I received the board and was able to use it once so far--it is great! As soon as I get my timing down again, (I haven't skimmed since I was a kid) it's going to work out really nicely.

Kimberly from Louisiana: I've tried out the new board, actually nailed a pop shuvit fairly quickly. The board works great, love it.
