A skimboard was a type of individual transportation. It was composed of a lengthy metal board that floated just above the surface. The person using it, known as a skim surfer, stood while riding it.
Smaller, toy versions called gravboards were also available, sized for children to ride, supposedly using anti-gravity technology. Jyn Erso owned one when she was 3, although Lyra Erso, her mother, was concerned about bringing it to the facility where her husband, Galen, was employed.
In the non-canonical LEGO activity book LEGO Star Wars Galaxy Mission, a skimboard, referred to as a hoverboard, appears. Kori Zaran utilized it during the galaxy mission.
