"Recycling Old Surfboards One at a Time"


We would like to thank you for visiting our website as we are starting

something that we hope will give back to our earth as it gives us so much.

Our idea is simple; find used, old, broken and discarded surfboards which

are on their way to the landfill and make art out of them.

It all started with a small shop in Cocoa Beach, Florida called Cocoa

Beach Surf & Skate. We were getting a lot of surfboards brought in

that were not fixable or people were dropping them off with us for lack

of a better place to abandon them. To us, old boards are cool so we

would just hold on to them. Some people would buy them for their

back patios, restaurant, etc… which was fine, it keep another surfboard

out of the landfill and made us feel like we were making a difference.

One day we were talking with an artist friend of ours bouncing

around ideas of what to do with these old surfboards. Chuck had a  good

one so he took the board. Well, when he brought it back and we were

BLOWN AWAY. He took an old surfboard that was headed for the

landfill and made it look brand new with some amazing art! The Recycled

Surfboard Art Program was started that day.
