WHY BAMBOO? - Stronger than steel Mothernature approved

Bamboo Skateboards 20/20 Factor
skateboards made of bamboo is both 20% stronger and 20% lighter than its counter made of maple.

Bamboo is one of the strongest materials, with a tensile strength of 28,000 per square inch versus 23,000 for steel. It’s also 20% stronger than maple. It withstands up to 52,000 pounds of pressure psi. With a 10-30% annual increase in biomass versus 2-5% for trees. bamboo creates greater yields of raw material for use. One bamboo clump can produce 200 poles in the five years it takes one tree to reach maturity. It grows one third faster than the fastest growing tree. Some species can grow up to 1 meter per day. A renewable resource for agroforestry products.

Bamboo consumes 45% more carbon then a similar stand of trees, helping to reduce global warming.

Special Culture: Heritage Society have an exclusive technolgies from China’s top bamboo research center to harness the power of bamboo for skateboards. Our special cultured bamboo and our exclusive refining technology have made our skateboards lighter and stronger than anything on the market.

Deforestation is a major concern on our planet. In the time it takes a tree to mature (usually around 5 years). We can harvest more than 200 poles from one bamboo clump. Some bamboo grows as fast as 1 meter per day. Earth-friendly bamboo grows fast, needs neither fertilizer nor pesticides, sequesters a huge amount of the greenhouse gas, carbon monoxide, and creates more oxygen than a stand of trees. The bamboo plant doesn't die when canes are harvested, so there is no ugly clear-cutting, and erosion is prevented.

Our decks are made of 100% bamboo. Not composited like other lookalikes. Our exclusive treatment process makes our decks stronger and lighter than our bamboo and/or maple.
