Looking at getting a custom board made. Loved the 2008 Nobile skim, found the airush skim too small and a little bit loose- same with riding a standard Zap skim. Currently riding a kipuna and a Cabrinha nugget. Nugget struggles upwind but want something in a similar shape I think maybe with the rail of the Nobile skim.

2 questions- if you were designing a skim what would you do ? shape, size, construction, reasons ? and secondly has anyone tried kiting on an old knee board as that is a similar outline to what I think I want to try.

Cheers
