Lake Michigan• I started skimboarding with my friends on Lake

Michigan. My Favorite spot is:

• Holland

Holland pictures

Holland is a very unique spot.

Average wave sizes are between 2ft to 4ft but can reach up to 10ft.

Waves are the biggest during the fall and winter months.

So wet suits are used for protection against the cold.
