Channel Islands' Machado Motorboat

On our recent visit to the Channel Islands Surfboard Factory and HQ in Carpinteria, CA., we were pleased to see that Channel Islands is taking the first step towards a more sustainable surfboard. Traditionally surfboards have been made using wasteful practices and highly volatile materials such as polyester resin and virgin foams using toxic gases. CI initially is making Rob Machado's Motorboat available in a recycled PU foam and polyester resin. But an even more eco-friendly option may eventually be available in a 100% recycled EPS foam from Marko Foam and Super Sap Epoxy Resin. Help the cause, and order your custom CI board to be made with Marko 100% recycled EPS and our Super Sap Epoxy!
