The Carlsbadistan Twelve Days of Christmas #8: Bamboo Skateboard From Witt’s

Every Carlsbadistanian needs a least one good skateboard around the house. They are perfect for checking the surf, rolling to 7-Eleven for milk, or worst case, shoving under a heavy piece of furniture to make the move smooth and protect the floor.

We found the perfect board at Witt’s Carlsbad Pipeline. It’s a Sector 9 Bamboo Series “Maccas” ($160). The board has no nose or tail kick so older skaters won’t be tempted into doing potentially injurious tricks from back in the day. The bottom graphic is of the Mentawai surf break Macaroni’s. And the coolest part? The board is made from 100% bamboo: one of the best renewable resources on the planet. Bamboo is strong, light, and it looks great, too. As Sector 9 says, “Save a tree. Ride a weed.”

Witt’s Carlsbad Pipeline, 2975 Carlsbad Blvd, (760) 729-4423.
