How to fly with the Skimmer

Once you've unlocked your Skimmer, flying with the Skimmer is incredibly easy: press the crouch button while riding the board. Basically, pressing crouch (CTRL, B, or Circle) will make your Guardian grind a rail much like a skateboarder, however the board creates its own rail in the direction you’re moving. When you’re on the ground, you’ll float a little bit, but when you do it off the top of a structure, it will look like you’re flying. If you’re on PC and having trouble with the grind, make sure crouch is set to Toggle Crouch instead of hold.

Unfortunately, the caveat for flying the Skimmer is that it takes energy. As you’re grinding the rail, the energy bar will be slowly depleting (like when you boost on a Sparrow). After about 25 seconds, you’ll run out of energy and will no longer be able to fly. It doesn’t seem like you can recover energy while in the air, but there is one way to keep flying, though it will take a bit of quick timing.

Once you run out of energy, you can quickly jump off the Skimmer and then pull out another one and then hit the crouch button again. You will likely fall for a second or so while you do this. However, if you’re quick enough, you should be able to continually repeat this to fly across large gaps.

How to Get the Winged Wolf Skimmer

Another Skimmer is also available for purchase at the Eververse store during the Games as part of the Gjallarheart Gear Bundle. The entire set is inspired by Norse mythology and in turn evokes the iconic Gjallarhorn weapon design. There's an armor set and weapon ornament for Thunderlord, but it's the gear bundle that includes the Skimmer. For 2,500 Silver you get a Ghost shell, Ship, a Shader, and the Winged Wolf Skimmer. Unless you already have the Silver, you'll have to spend $29.99 to get 3000 (+500 bonus) Silver. Spending $19.99 only gets you 2300 Silver.
