Surfers Making Waves with Eco-Friendly Boards

The video discusses the environmental impact of traditional surfboards made from fiberglass and petrochemicals, which can last for hundreds of years as debris. It introduces the Eco Board, a sustainable alternative created by UK surfers using natural materials. The Eco Board was developed at the Eden Center, using a bolted tree and other locally grown elements. The board is part of an exhibition at the Eden Project, showcasing a shift in surfboard technology towards more sustainable materials. While the Eco Board may need adjustments for performance, it represents a significant step towards environmentally friendly surfing.
