WANTED: 1000 BROKEN SURFBOARDS.
Many of us know that the eventual fate of a surfboard is limited to landfill.
In a sense, landfill is the graveyard for the objects of our heavily materialized throw-away society.
This includes the surfer’s most valuable piece of equipment – the surfboard. My project, 1000 Surfboard Graveyard, aims to provoke new ideas, have fun, and generate fresh conversations about the sustainability of high performance surfboards; including their carbon emissions, non-renewable resource consumption and disposal into landfill.
