When we started testing bamboo as an alternative to traditional hardwood for our skate decks, we thought we were just doing our part to help out the planet. What we didnt expect is that our riders actually preferred the feel of the bamboo over a traditional wood deck. They loved the snap on ollies and the durability on obstacles is better than any other wood board in the industry. The higher density of the 100% bamboo construction adds more weight to the deck, and more control in tricks. Traffic ECO - Saving the earth one skate at a time!
