A reusable skid board may be used to tie down and secure air-drop loads. A reusable skid board may include a rigid polymeric body defining: a flat upper surface; one or more apertures at each side of the rigid polymeric body such that one or more cords are couplable to the one or more of aperture; and a bottom surface coupled to the top surface and defining an internal volume, wherein the rigid polymeric body includes rounded corners and edges and has sufficient buoyancy such that the rigid polymeric body can float without load in seawater.
