If staying with skim style, you can go shorter/smaller, which will be, all things considered equal, lighter and more nimble. Consider a P5-DP or Inland KF, in a shorter size than you are currently riding. You might also consider practicing airs with a properly equiped surf style board. Most of the best riders, ride both surf and skim style to help them work through tricks. I am not a big fan of hybrids, that is they really aren't hybrids, but basically skim board with slightly increased rockers and bigger fins.
