Stand Up Bodyboard or Super Shortboard
It's interesting to see how the surfing world can come a full circle and still get inspiration from a bodyboard shape to create a surfboard. Well one surf company shop has done that and it's pretty rad to see this happen. Bing Surf is the shop that has done just this. Below is a brief description of the board.
"Speed Square

"Speed Square
Inspired by his fond childhood memories on a Mach-77 boogie board, Bing team rider, Chris Del Moro convinced shaper, Matt Calvani to help him recapture the magic in this modern-day twin-finned version called the Speed Square. Because of its short length, Matt added belly in the nose with a quick transition into a hard, tapered rail in the tail so that the board would be quick and responsive. He added a deep straight concave that runs from where your front foot sits through the tail of the board to gain efficiency in glide and maintained thickness in the tail to improve glide and wave-catching ability. The small twin keels maintain a “fin-less” riding quality but still allowing for some control. Ride it short, ride it fast and get ready for a whole lot of fun! "

It usually appears like the skimboarding is just sliding into a wall of a wave, but what they do with that is quite amazing. Here's an extreme view of what skimboarding can be.
