Short Description
Recycling skateboards design - using old broken skateboards as material and giving them second life
Detailed Description
Skateboards are made from 7 plies hard rock Canadian maple - very high-quality hardwood. Layers are dyed in factories to reflect skateboard brand's identity and for other consumer purposes. After that, it is glued and shaped to be a skateboard.
Skateboarders can break from 1 to 10 decks in a month, professionals can break triple of that amount. When the board breaks it is still 80% usable. We partner with skate parks and skate shops all across Europe to collect them and give them a second life.
Boards are prepared, sanded, glued together to get high-quality colorful material.
