Year-round production
Instead of introducing multiple collections every season, we produce year-round based on demand.
This way there’s no surplus stock and unnecessary waste.
Recycled materials
Our boards are made with recycled materials where possible, without compromising on performance.
Our boards are built to last, making them not only more sustainable but also durable.
Short supply chain
We have direct communication with our manufacturing partner and our boards don’t take any detours, because we cut out the middleman. A shorter supply chain is recognized to be leaner, more agile, more “accountable,” and less expensive.

Printing
Our boards contain durable prints with inks that resist scratches, dirt and water. When needed, digitally printed with latex ink.
100% natural and ecological without volatile pollutants and solvents, respectful of the environment because without ozone emission, composed of 70% water and 30% latex.
FSC-certified wood
All wood used in our wood cores are FSC-Certified, which means it comes from responsibly managed forests that provide social, economic and environmental benefits.
Greenpoxy Resins
We use Sicomin’s Greenpoxy® 33 in our boards. Manufacturer Sicomin is committed to producing chemicals in a more environmentally responsible manner.
Greenpoxy® 33 is made with up to 35% natural components from vegetable waste
ABS Sidewalls – Recycled
Nobody likes plastic, but it’s the most durable option that provides great edge control qualities and is also super durable against impact. We make the sustainable choice by working with recycled ABS only.
Graphite sintered base – Recycled
The Graphite Carbon Sintered Base layer is made from crushed polyethylene pellets and pieces of carbon and graphite. By crushing them under high pressure, rather than melting, tiny gaps or pores are created. The finished product is a superstrong, lightweight, and porous base. The porousness holds wax better and longer. Carbon and graphite additives make this base super-fast gliding too.
