An airfoil includes pressure and suction side walls that extend in a chord-wise direction between leading and trailing edges. The pressure and suction side walls extend in a radial direction to provide an exterior airfoil surface. A main-body core cooling passage is arranged between the pressure and suction walls in a thickness direction and extends radially toward a platform. An airfoil skin cooling passage is arranged in one of the pressure and suction side walls to form a hot side wall and a cold side wall. The hot side wall defines a portion of the exterior airfoil surface and the cold side wall defines a portion of the core passage. The airfoil skin cooling passage extends to a platform skin cooling passage arranged in the platform. A resupply hole fluidly connects the main-body core cooling passage and at least one of the airfoil skin cooling passage and the platform skin cooling passage.
