Wasteboards Squid Skateboard

Plastic waste skateboards for a cleaner planet - Wasteboards

Plastic pollution is a growing problem. Worldwide. Rivers, oceans, beaches, cities become more and more polluted with plastic. Wasteboards wants to turn the tide by involving as many people as possible, creating value from plastic waste. That’s why Wasteboards manufacture high-quality skateboards from plastic bottle caps.

Riding Style & Shape
Cruisers have the perfect characteristics to roll quickly and comfortably from point A to point B. Thanks to the extra kick-tail, no obstacle is too high. With the right technique, you can easily jump onto any kerbstone that gets in your way.

Construction
The deck is made from plastic bottle caps. Wasteboards collect these bottle caps together with the visitors of music events, school kids, companies, you name it. The plastic caps are melted and pressed into a massive aluminium mould by hand. This makes every board unique - they all look different depending on the colours of the bottle tops.

Setup
The trucks and wheels perfectly fit the size of the deck. The soft wheels offer a balance between speed and grip. The wide tread and the softness of the wheels also ensure that stones, branches, and small obstacles can simply just be ridden over.
