Dylan Runge

Hi my name is Dylan, and My favorite thing to do is Skimboard! I am 12 years old and have been skimboarding for about 3 years total in time. I was super into skimboarding from age 7-9 and then just as I was originally going to get sponsored I decided I wanted to try other things instead. I was blessed enough to become one of the top child models in the state of Florida and had some pretty Epic experiences! I currently still model but my main focus has switched back to skimboarding! I also tried surfing and won a bunch of surf contests which was cool , but then it got cold so I decided to take up Golf. I still actually love golf but as the weather changed again in Florida and things started to heat up one of my golfing buddies brought his skimboard to my house to just have som fun. Long story short I had forgotten how much I loved skimboarding and how it was truly always my favorite thing to do. December of 2021 was the first time I picked up a skimboard in 3 years. It turned out I didn’t forget how to do it after all! This time around My goal is to be a professional skimboarder and represent the best skimboard brand out there (Apex) of course 😉I am so glad that my friend made me try it again and renewed my number one favorite thing to do! I love skimming especially on the East Coast of Florida where I am from. Wabasso, Mulligans, Sebastian Inlet and Fort Pierce inlet are some of my favorite places to skim! I ride a Apex pro series board with a fish like shape that Apex custom made for me! I am so stoked about my new board and becoming a team rider for Apex! My favorite tricks are big airs, 360 airs, 3-5 shoves, and the new one I am working on (The Widdly)! Thank you for checking out my profile, I look forward to skimming with all you Groms out there!!!
