Bastiaan van Druten uses local wood to make skateboards completely by hand. The Dutch-born skateboarder uses trees which have been cut down to make way for local urban developments and gives them new life. Every board he makes comes with documentation with wood tracking details and is named after the neighborhood or city the wood originated from.
“Skateboarding has lost its roots. The mentality of being one with nature is completely gone. My goal is to get that idea back on the streets! Local wood only!”
