BeXtreme Technologies and Eco-Materials

BeXtreme is committewakd to sustainability and protecting the environment. All the materials we
use have been chosen to reduce the impact on nature with a focus on local products. Our main
mission is to offer high-performance boards tested by riders with a focus on environmentally
sustainable premium materials. We all win!

How are our environmentally friendly wakeboard boards made?

We have carefully chosen the materials from our wakeboard boards to deliver the best
performance and have the smallest impact possible on nature which is why our wakeboards
are mainly made of paulownia wood. Paulownia is a plantation tree and is very resistant like
bamboo, but less flexible. In a wakeboard board we do not want as much flexibility as in a
snowboard or longboard as the wakeboard already makes concave shape and goes through the
water. With too much flex, it can get out of control.

Paulownia is eco-friendly as it is planted for future sale, so you avoid deforestation. The
downside is that the paulownia tree takes at least 8 years until it can be cut!

The sidewall or ABS is made of bamboo paste, so you will have the toughest on the market
without giving up the eco-friendly aspect. The fibers we put between the core of paulownia are
natural and manufactured through biodegradable products found in nature.

Sticking fibers with paulownia requires a lot of glue. This can be the most toxic component of a
longboard board which is why we use recycled epoxy resin with its main bio components.
