hahaha hampton is the sketchiest beach on the east coast, next time you're there head 5 minutes down the road to rye and go to jenness and cable beach

We are down at the Dewey Delaware beaches nearly every weekend.  Dewey is known for skim boarding.  so yeah  nips skims a lot!  Wish I could tell you what type of board he has, I know it is 44"  no custom art on it though.
