About us

Bamboo Skateboards is located in beautiful Rainbow, in Northern San Diego county California. In 2008, we learned that the craze for maple skateboards was having a destructive effect on old-growth forests. It takes 60 years for a maple tree to mature enough to harvest. We decided to accept the challenge of creating an eco-friendly alternative to maple decks that provides superior durability, pop, performance, all at a competitive cost.

Social Responsibility

Bamboo Skateboards is a socially-responsible company who believes that protecting our environment is as important or more important than quarterly profits.

Additional Bamboo Skateboard Advantages

Whether you are looking for a street deck for your local park, or want to cruise around campus or your neighborhood with one of our cruisers or longboards, we have what you are looking for. Skating bamboo connects with nature; it trains both mind and body and connects us with a broader community of positive, peaceful, health conscious people.

Bamboo skateboards are perfect for skaters that are passionate about free riding and carving. Our longboards are great for downhill racing and cruising at fast speeds. If you’re ready to push your skating to the next level, Bamboo can take you there.

  • Bamboo is naturally shock-absorbent to help prevent your deck from cracking.
  • Bamboo skateboards are lighter and stronger than maple. So, you get more “pop” when performing tricks and refining your skills.
  • Nothing performs better than bamboo.
  • Bamboo absorbs impact better than maple. Your Bamboo skateboard will resist cracking and provide top performance far longer than maple. Bamboo not only helps us create a better board, it’s also the socially-responsible choice.
  • Buying directly from BambooSkateboards.com enables us to offer great pricing. Our overhead is lower, so we can pass along savings. See what’s trending right now. Experienced skater? Build your own board with our online tool while you see the results in real time.

One Tree PlantedFor every skateboard that you buy, a tree will be planted!

Where?

In North America, South America, Asia, and Africa.

How?

We found this amazing non-profit to sponsor with each of our sales. It’s called One Tree Planted and, from all the way up in Vermont, they work with amazing reforestation organizations around the world that need financial support to help them get more trees in the ground.

Most of their projects help with restoration from forest fires and floods, as well as creating jobs, building communities, and protecting habitat for biodiversity.

They pool the donations for each project and send the funds to reforestation partners, whom they vet to ensure a tree survival rate of 80-90%. Depending on the project, they choose the best tree species to plant and work with local communities to get them in the ground.

Why?

As an environmentally conscious company, we source our products only from easily replenishable bamboo, which is the fastest growing plant in the world. According to the Guinness World Records, you can actually hear some species of bamboo growing up to 2.91 feet in a single day. That means it grows almost 1.5 inches every hour!

They say the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now.  We are humbled to be able to contribute in any small way we can.
