The majority of surfing surfboards are crafted from wood and/or synthetic materials, but the 'KORKO' surfboard takes things in a different direction with a design that is made with natural cork. Affordably priced, the 'KORKO' surfboard is the design work of NOTOX Boards and is designed to be an easy piece of equipment to pick up and start using immediately.
The manufacturing process behind the 'KORKO' surfing surfboards is intended to cut out the harmful techniques that in turn contribute to environmental pollution and the deterioration of the ocean's health. This, in turn, helps to make it possible to enjoy the majesty of ocean sports without utilizing equipment that is crafted with unnatural materials and that contributes to a more polluted environment.
