I think that the best skipper should be a major league side-arm or submarine pitcher (think Kent Tekulve and Dan Quisenberry). Or maybe Nolan Ryan with a little practice.
One of the sad ways of the world is that when you find the perfect skipping rock, you almost never find it for a second throw.

see this is where you merkins are all fucked up. Rocks are big chunky things that would sink on first contact. the smaller things are called stones. (Then come pebbles). The perfect size to skim (yes, skim, not skip) is most definitely a stone. I have spoken.
