Green Boards makes eco friendly bamboo skateboards
Super Green Boards is a company that makes eco friendly skateboards made out of bamboo. You’ll find a lot of fun facts on their website like it only takes 5 years for a bamboo stalk to grow to a mature stage, while it takes a maple tree about 100 years. Furthermore, bamboo is 17% harder than maple, making it great for skateboards since they go through a lot of punishment on the pavements.
The Green Boards are also constructed with low volatile organic compounds, and the company is research soy polymers and are looking for alternatives for fiberglass with bamboo too. Also keep in mind that bamboo can be sustainably harvested and can grow fast like a weed…

why use bamboo? PANDAS NEED IT! i wouldn’t suggest buying this! even though the bamboo grows fast, it wouldn’t last forever and save it for the pandas !

reuse and recycle instead of using new stuff to make good stuff(even if the products are eco-friendly, it’s not that eco-friendly if you’re using new things to make your products!!!!!!!!)
