The Skimmer is a single-occupant vehicle used by Guardians, similar to the Sparrow. It is based on the skyboards used by Cloud Striders.[citation needed]
Abilities
All skimmers have a booster, used as their primary method of propulsion. The boost button is mapped to the aim button. Pressing the sprint button allows for the Skimmer to jump and pressing the crouch button allows for the user to grind the air. Guardians can also do tricks using the emote buttons. Skimmers share most of their controls with Sparrows.
Trivia
Based on the lore tab for Allstar Vector, it is possible that Skimmers were given to Guardians as a gift from the Concordat, the implications of which have yet to be explored.
