A young and ambitious team of skateboarders and those sympathetic to skateboarding culture work together to inspire new generation of skaters, make better conditions for them to grow, create a space for a non-formal education and spread the benefits of skateboarding and inevitability of recycling. Skateboarding is known to be one of the leading contributors to deforestation of Canadian Maple - the material most skateboard decks are made of. As we know today there are 14 million skateboarders in the world and counting. Everyday around 6 thousand boards are broken and go to the landfills with about 95% of material remaining still usable. Commune DIY takes matters and initiative to their hands. The workshop collects or exchanges old, broken or unused skateboard decks for a creative recycling, giving the skaters a fat discount on fresh boards or recycled skateboard products. The workshop is now able to recycle hundreds of broken boards and manufacture a big variety of products out of the reclaimed skate wood, boosting the once dead board into different markets, for a sustainable and useful item. The production goes from bulk business orders to very delicate and one of a kind custom pieces; from unique gadgets to functioning car accessories and home décor. #CommuneDIY #CDIY #cdiyworkshop #cdiyskateboards #recycledskateboards
