Brad Domke keeps teaching surfers how to ride waves in finless board mode.

He is one of the best wave riders in the world. Grab a thin finless skimboard and try to imitate the magician from Wabasso, Florida. Nice effort, it's simply impossible.

Domke is never lost, and he can often be found cutting the cleanest wave lines on Planet Earth. In half. Actually, Brad is the pioneer of big wave skimboarding. How can he do that?

The latest video confirms his surf n' skim skills. Most of the clips have been lost due to a major hard drive failure. Luckily though, they were filmed with an iPad before disaster struck, and they've been cut from that.

Next time, we'll be watching Brad Domke charging hard at Teahupoo with a simple skim board. Any doubts?
