Arbor Skateboards released its first skateboards in ‘99. Since day one, the goal has been to use environmentally friendly, natural materials such as Arbor Koa Wood Longboards and Arbor Bamboo Wood Longboards to create a better made, better looking, better performing Arbor longboard. When we started, we were one of only a handful of companies talking about protecting the planet. That has finally changed.
Today, Arbor advocates the idea that you can’t just be “green” for the sake of being green. If it were that easy we’d all be wearing hemp. Choosing an environmentally friendly alternative should not involve sacrificing performance. Rather – you should expect improved design via eco-solutions accessed in responsible ways. This modern approach to environmental thinking and skate design is what Arbor Longboards are all about.
To that end, our eco-materials are chosen to improve the performance and style of our skateboards, while reducing the impact their production has on the planet. All of these natural materials, including our maple plys, are sustainably sourced. In addition, we reclaim the wood and bamboo by-product created during construction for use in other Arbor products or by outside companies.
