AIMING to make waves in the world of skateboarding, a small start-up company in the seaside village of Ballybunion has created an eco-friendly skateboard out of bamboo and hemp.
“We have developed the world’s first all grass, sustainable, high-performance skateboard” says Grasshopper Skateboard founderd Barry Liston explaining that the 95% of skateboards are made from maple and that skateboard manufacturing is the number one global cause of maple deforestation.
