Recycling in Gaining Ground in the Surf Industry

"Oxnard based WaveTribe is making new leashes from old ones and making tractop from sustainably grown cork. In San Diego, the Progress Project is taking vinyl from old billboards and sewing them into surfboard travel bags. Another California venture, ReRip, is recycling old surfboards to make new ones. And in San Francisco, Sustainable Surf is collecting EPS foam from electronics packaging and sending it to Marko Foam to make new board blanks." - excerpt from article by Greg Gordon in The Inertia.
