Check those edits out below and if you like David’s style, you can see more of his work at MouseInTheHaus. Thanks David!!

Johnny Salta goes Pro!
Victoria Skimboards is pleased to announce that once esteemed amateur rider, Johnny Salta, has now joined the professional skimboarding ranks. His first professional contest was the Cabo Clasico held at Solmar Beach in Cabo San Lucas over the weekend of May this last May 19th and 20th.
Johnny has been skimboarding with a majority of the top professionals of the sport in his hometown of Laguna Beach and felt the time was right to make the change. “The pros push each other so much and I am ready to be a part of it” stated Johnny.
We look for good things to come from Johnny in the near future and are excited to have him as a professional athlete. Congratulations Johnny and best of luck as everyone will be gunning for you!
Victoria sponsors the HASL Dangerous Shorebreak contest in HI
Victoria Skimboards is proud to be a part of the Hawaiian Amateur Skimboard League (HASL) and kick the season off with the “Dangerour Shorebreak” contest on March 17, 2012 at Sandy Beach, Oahu.
A direct quote from the contest organizers, “early on in the week conditions looked optimum for a contest but come contest day Sandy Beach through in a challenge. There was a little swell in the water with gusting winds but the competitors pushed through and still had a good time.”
Congratulations to all competitors and to Eric and his crew behind the scenes at HASL! Once again, Victoria Skimboards was stoked to be a part of such a great series of events. Check out the video of the event…….
