Basla Hemp Surfboard By Ocean Green

The ultimate goal of Ocean Green is to produce custom surfboards that are entirely made out of natural materials.

The ecofoil blanks are lighter than their polyurethane counterparts and produce a fantastic looking board. Their hollow design overcomes the lack of performance inherent to solid wooden boards. The balsa is sourced in Nicaragua. Wood from sustainable forests is carefully selected and transported to Fair Trade workshops where carpenters transform it into the various ecofoil components. Ocean Green receives the components in Cornwall and then combines the shaped EcoFoil blanks with organically grown hemp cloth to produce a fantastic looking, high performance board.
