When O'Brien started testing bamboo as an alternative to traditional hardwood for the skate decks - they thought we were just doing our part to help out the planet. What we didn't 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!
