We do however have a distributor in Rio, who has boards in stock and ready to go, or can help you in placing a custom order. His e-mail is andremagarao@gmail.com

Hey exile, I live on East FL and we get nice waves maybe around 1 to sometimes 5 ft waves and we get strong east winds most the time, So i want the comp weight but I also want a bang from buck and a board that will not break, as it says "for the cost of strength" I'm worried it might wear and tear easier or might snap. PLEASE HELP!
Thank you for your interest in Exile Skimboards! Unfortunately, there always has to be a little give and take in the composites world. Our competition weight boards are the lightest boards we make, and probably in the world. This makes them incredibly responsive. It does come at the cost of a little strength. By that we mean that you couldn't expect them to last as long as a standard double carbon fiber epoxy, but they also aren't going to fall apart in your hands. We tend offer that they might not be the best board for someone who is incredibly hard on their board or skims windy conditions on a regular basis. But, if you want the sickest skimboard out there, and aren't too concerned if you don't have it forever, then it IS the board for you. We hope that helps!

I skim on water with not many waves and is mostly just water over sand. I want the dude cruise! But what thickness should I get if I don't have many waves? Or should I even get the dude cruise with barely many waves? Please give me advice
While the Dude! Cruise shape can be used in all conditions, the Dude! Cruise excels in smaller, weaker conditions like you described. Because it's wider throughout, there is more planing surface which helps the board keep speed. You would probably also enjoy the 3/4" tapered thickness for additional float. We hope this helps! Please direct any further questions to info@exileskimboards.com. Thanks!

I weigh 90 lbs. i skim on the west coast of florida. The waves are like waist high and break pretty close. Should i get 3/4"
or 5/8"?
Thickness is a lot of personal preference, and slightly depends on the types of waves you skim. We would say that in general 3/4" is pretty popular on the West Coast of Florida. However, at your weight and considering that you are getting a Dude! Cruise which is pretty wide you may want to consider the 5/8" for extra maneuverability. We hope this helps.

Hey, I've seen the Dude! Cruise Video and I'm dying to get one, I probably will once I get paid. It seems like the perfect board for me. I could not find the color catalog but I was wondering if you guys could replicate the Dude! Cruise in this youtube video.
http://youtu.be/kusb_OI-3Vk At 00:37 seconds is where the board I want to replicate begins to show. The top and bottom are different colors.
We think you will definitely enjoy the Dude! Cruise as we've had outstanding reviews from team riders and customers alike. The colors are glow green for the top, and Salmon for the bottom. You can find our color swatches in our 2012 catalog here: http://www.exileskimboards.com/CATALOGS/2012/exile2012.html

Hey im 5 foot tall and 90 lbs. Should I get the Grom Cruise size? Or the Yacht size? also should i get 3/4 thick? im not gonna be doing sharp turns n stuff.Where I skim the waves are pretty big and get barrels 40% of the time. Thanks!
Sorry for the late reply! I'm guessing you're going to be growing? I think the Grom Cruise would work for you, but the yacht might let you ride it for longer. If you feel like you're pretty quick, then the 5/8" should be fine in either since you want maximum maneuvering in the big waves and barrels.

How do i kno what thickness to get?
Hey Ty! Thickness comes down to a lot of personal preference honestly. Some people really prefer the 5/8" others the 3/4". With the 5/8" you get maximum maneuverability and responsiveness, but isn't quite as bouyant. 3/4" provides maximum float at the cost of a slight amount of maneuverability.
In general, it seems to us that a lot of better/faster riders (not all though) who skim good conditions on a regular basis tend to prefer the 5/8", where riders that skim softer conditions or waves further from shore tend to like the 3/4" a bit more.

I ordered my Cruise after I tried out Paulo's over the past summer. This board kicks ass, given the awesome Tripod pad, the legit paint splatter top art, and the E-Ball spiral bottom art make me drool over it every time I see it. It rides sooo smoothly, and floats so well. I definitely recommend this board, whether it's your first board or another to add to the quiver. Cruiseeeeee!!!!
