Salomon Snowboard - The Sick Stick

Salomon Snowboard is the maker of Men’s and Women’s snowboards, snowboarding boots, and bindings.

The design is not only attractive, but also ‘green’ and renewable - The Sick Stick product line of Salomon Snowboard even won EcoDesign Volvo Sports Design Award at ISPO 2008.

About the SickSticks - The snowboards are made from bamboo fiber - an ultra-renewable material. In each board, 400 grams of bamboo replace 300 grams of plastic, 100 grams of resin and 200 grams of fibreglass. It is also comes in a cotton-bamboo knit bag instead of a PVC sleeve, while the hangtags are printed on recycled paper instead of coated stickers.

Well-designed and eco-friendly - no wonder Salomon Snowboard won the EcoDesign award.
