Overview
Hyperlite makes the Shim as a 2023 wakesurfer that blends skim and surf style characteristics in a single board. Its body is expanded polystyrene, and it is listed for adult and teen riders at the intermediate level.
A rider who wants a board that can skim across the water and still turn like a surfboard gets both traits here. The limitation is thin data: thickness, rider limit and fin setup are not given.
Who it's for
An adult or teen who already surfs the wake and wants a shorter, more playful board. New riders, or anyone who needs a published rider limit, should look at a different model.

Performance notes
Board length and the foam body decide how much float and speed the rider gets at low tow speeds. The skim style helps the board glide and pivot, while the surf traits let the rider carve on the wave.
