RECAP | OBX Skim Jam Day 2
Day two here in Nags Head, has wrapped up and we are gassed! After a full day in the sun, with non-stop action and some major upsets, we have a lot to catch up on! It was a sunny day in the low 90’s with a heat index of 110 degrees Fahrenheit, with not a cloud in the sky, swell coming out of the southeast at about one to two feet, and of course non-stop action!

PHOTOS | The Zap Summer Shop Tour Hits K-Coast in Ocean City, MD
We kicked off the Zap Summer Shop Tour with an amazing evening at K-Coast in Ocean City, Maryland! K-Coast Surf Shop was incredibly supportive, helping us bring out a fantastic local crowd. The highlight? We got people who had never skimboarded before on our boards, and they were successfully riding and having a blast. On top of that, we scored some great waves and demonstrated high-performance skimboarding right on the shores of Ocean City. It was a big success, and we’re excited to see everyone at the next stop in South Kingston, RI with Matunuck Surf Shop on 7/10 from 11-1

ZAP AWARDS | Rider of the Year - Mason Broussard
The All-Terrain Vehicle himself, Mason Broussard, was recently named the Zap Rider of the Year at this year’s inaugural Zap awards. Mason is always grinding, traveling, shredding, and turning heads everywhere he goes. His style is insane, his technical trick bag is deep, his attitude is rad, and he absolutely rips! We’re stoked to not only call Mason a team rider but a friend! Congrats on such a sick 2025, Mason and here’s to 2026!

TEAM | Will Grady Battled An Ankle Injury During Jackalope Fest
Dealing with injuries is never fun, especially if you’re in the middle of an event! That’s exactly what happened to team rider Will Grady at Jackalope Fest. Feeling good and skimming well, he unfortunately tweaked his back ankle while training but decided to push through the pain and compete regardless. A decision that could make or break his contest hopes, it ended up paying off for him with a 4th place finish in Men’s! Nice, Will! We checked in with him to see how he feels about it now that the dust has settled.

RECAP | Jackalope Fest Day 2
Jackalope 2026 was nothing short of epic and non-stop action! Walking onto the beach for finals day, we were met with a doubled swell from Saturday of 2’-4’, barreling whilst still a little too high tide (but would not be an issue) and some light Northwest winds of four to five miles per hour! It was a dreamy day with weather in the low 70’s and the best conditions that we have seen at Virginia Beach since Jackalope came to town!
