Bamboo comes from china.
So the fuel it takes to get here on those big ships just puts us back as square one. Oil spills and sending money to a Country that just does not like us taking jobs away from American workers is not so great. So buying Bamboo just give more money to the Iraq and other nations that want to take America down. We use fuels from Iran and other nations that are out to hurt Americans. You are doing more harm than good making skateboards out of Bamboo. Try to keep our economy here in the USA instead of sending out more jobs to China and other Nations. Why send more money overseas buying Bamboo.
It does not come from USA it only grows in Asia. Who ever wrote this must be a person that is in Asia trying to take American dollars.

bamboosk8 makes to brand quality boards there boards have great pop great concave and high impact cause if u are a skater that wont’s go out and land these big time tricks like 360 flip or lazier flip thin bamboosk8 has the boards right for you cause concave + pop + light board = one great board to skate and to do tricks on. and befor i for get maple boards are made of maple trees and to make at least 1 board they have to cut down a maple tree that will take years and years to grow back wean u have bamboo will grow back in about 1 month or less i could be wrong but i do know bamboo can grow 2 feet a day or more so u have nothing to wore about with it effecting the eco system

Bamboo SK8 is a very reliable board company. I recently started using their boards last year when I visited Oceanside. I was there for about a week and bought one of their boards to skate because I had forgotten mine back home in Eureka, CA. I loved it, so before I left I bought two more decks to take with me. This was about a year ago, and I still have one of the decks in my room. In the past few weeks I found Sponsorhouse, now I’m sponsored by them and very proud that I’m able to sponsor a product like theirs. The Pop and flip is amazing. Its very durable and right away you now it’s a strong deck. When I have the deck all set up I’ve noticed it’s also a much lighter overall deck. I love this board, and I have requested that my local board shop would get a shipment of their product. If you’re unsure of trying it, Buy one today and see for yourself that Bamboo SK8 is a great company!!

This is one of the best boards I have ever used. It has a great pop and they are fairly new so everyone at the park is pretty amazed by it.

Hey everyone, i really like what bamboosk8 are doing they are using exciting ideas to develop the skatboarding industry by using a less damaging source, this means that they can continue to make quality skateboards with out needing to cut down as much trees as everyone else! which means more trees for us . it can only be a good thing what they are doing and i hope one day ill be able to use one of these boards. as im sure they give a good pop and last just as long as the next board, meaning by buying their boads your using half the trees to skate.
