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

TEAM | Catch Up with Gio Tomasi (aka @SkimGio)
With more style than should be legal at his age, Gio Tomasi (aka @SkimGio) is a true Florida kid! He basically lives at the beach and with those dreads of his, he’s definitely bringing plenty of sand back with him when he leaves. We know this kid has a bright future and we are stoked to watch him grow and mature on the board. We caught up with him to see what’s been going on and what he has planned for 2026. Check it out now!

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!
