How Skateboards Become $400 Bowls | World Wide Waste | Business Insider
As a construction worker in the US, it blows my mind how much timber gets tossed. I try to grab what I can use and use it to repair or build things.
Its wood, it will rot and nourish the earth. Only thing being thrown away is money.
@@Delt4_Cr4wfish that the point bro. I cant affor proper lumber. I've made shelves and all sorts if things with it
@@idkjustleavemebeplease those companies want to though it away thats there problem.
Good for you! And thanks - for not letting useable stuff go to waste.
Ya it’s unreal. I worked at a lumber yard. And same thing. Big jobs would finish and materials would get returned and most just gets tossed…it’s a shame.
Came expecting a bowl for skateboards to ride. Interesting about the wastage. I have all my boards and some are pretty beat up but there's history there.
sometimes the stickers alone tell a story
@@shakulaka fax
I came hoping for a weed bowl haha 🤣
that bowl should be built ong , I have a few spare alr snapped
I've kept mine for years, I figure one of these days I'm going to make shelves with them.
"About four times the price of a normal skateboard..."
*laughs nervously looking at my beat up skateboards.*
What's more concerning is the price of decks these days. Lol
Man, Calgary has companies like Eavor that are turning old oil wells into geothermal energy generating systems. Some coverage for them would be good to see.
Oil wells from the 70’s, are filled with oil again.
Oil is not made from decomposing bones
@@kylefenrick9168 what does this have to do with that? also the oil wells in calgary aren't being refilled so maybe the oil had a service outage
@@i_love_games110 psychological warfare comes in many forms.
I’d be more worried about the hydrochloric acid, being pumped into the ground.
@@kylefenrick9168 that doesn't answer what your original reply has to do with Locutus's comment
@@i_love_games110 conversion is not necessary for providing fuel with proper rotation of well use.
With that said, it is good to be switching from a fuel source which causes health issue due to exhaust and extraction(pollution from production runoff), to a less invasive and destructive approach.
Those earrings look way better than anything I'd expect from being made out of busted skateboards. Hats off to these guys. Although, I will agree with what others have said about the price tag for the bowl.
Americans will pay whatever you want if you sell if from a famous enough Instagram account.
That’s the thing, you aren’t buying a bowl to eat out of, it’s an art piece for those willing to pay for it
The people complaining about the price aren't going to buy it so they're not the market demographic. It isn't a mass produced item so you're paying for a skilled craftsman's time, not some assembly line product.
@@CRneu Still not worth 400$, Art that's expensive like that is because they're somebody, these aren't artists they're carpenters taking advantage of stupid people. The stuff they make looks really nice but if I had to guess based upon the bowl, their cabinet is probably 20,000$
@Chad Neu "the people complaining about the price aren't going to buy it" Duh. That's their point. However your point is nonsense. There is a lot of potential profit loss for them. The likely problem is their production can't charge less as is. But it's not like they're hand crafting the bowls from carefully selected hardwood. It's machined machined machined.
That’s so sweet, love all the colors together, and you get a cool story to go along with your new table.
A $400 bowl???? The idea of reusing old boards is great, but for that price im surprised they sell any at all lol
$400 isn't a lot when you factor in the time, know how, resources, etc. This isn't an assembly line product. Each bowl is a unique piece of functional art that's of high quality. They make a limited number(likely cuz it creates a lot of byproduct) so the price reflects that.
Their most expensive bowl is $365. Some around $140.
they should make a 60’s- 70’s style skate deck out of the recycled boards! they were simple solid boards, it would be so interesting to see that solid deck shape with those crazy layers!
though these colours might look nice and the boards are very strong the way they are used in skateboards, if you try to flip the gradiant you will end up with a board that can be broken by hand very easily. so the look would be nice but theres no strength in them this way
Cool project, but I can't imagine wanting to play $400 dollars for one, that's outrageous
It’s because of the process and how much time the brothers spend on making the product. If it was on a factory line, I’d agree with you; $400 for a machine made object is nuts; but it’s man made so that’s why the price is so high. Plus supply and demand also play a huge role in how much the product is sold.
But it’s not worth it
Yeah its man made but it doesn’t really make it worth $400
@@justajojofan7715 well I just think it’s personal opinion! ☺️
@@justajojofan7715 if people are buying them for $400, they’re worth $400

$400 for a bowl is insane- sincerely a lifelong skater
I dont think i have ever seen an episode of recycling that isnt a huge gimmick.
I’ve watched this ep.. and I agree with you, same here.
Thats because even governing bodies treat it as a joke... Since the companies making the waste pays them to not care. At least these creators dedicated themselves to reusing. It's not in mosts price range, doesn't mean it isn't that valuable.
I agree, but the first company isn't making large quantities of common items, whereas the second one makes screwdrivers and other valuable and common goods so I think they should be quite cheap. you also have to factor in that they have to collect the boards themselves in small amounts.
@@Matthew-kc2dh you can pay $5 for shoes or $5000 for shoes. The more expensive pair can be made worse or they could even be the same shoes. With this concept in mind, I fail to see your point.
@@hydroxyl5130 I should've worded it much better the 2nd "valuable" is meant in terms of usefulness, a screwdriver and the other products the second company produce are arguably more useful and so should be cheaper than the 1st company's "art work" style pieces
A friend has been doing it for years but he gets some of his boards from pro's so when you get your product (jewelry for example) it comes with a note saying who's board it was!
that's so awesome !
Incredible experience for the new owner!
I seen these bowls around Calgary buy I never actually knew this was the process or where they came from.
Over the past 5-10 years there's been so much market growth and creativity in this city, it's nice to see.
Whether your in Kensington, Inglewood or downtown on 17th more and more shops like this open up.
400 dollar for a bowl? Congratulations, you are tge salesman of the year! :)
$400 for a bowl? bruh that's even expensive than a dutch oven cast iron 😂
Yeah, it’s definitely not worth the price in my eyes
Better than people buying NFTs, this is true art.

Proud of you boys. I'm a construction worker myself. So this problem is one worth fixing
Let's not forget that the biggest payouts in the markets don't come from great performances but rather it's great promotions. Stay invested, diversification for streams of incomes is very important.
Starting early is the best way of getting ahead to build wealth , investing remains a priority. I learnt from my last year's experience , I am able to build a suitable life because I invested early and ahead this time.
Many of us don't know where to invest our money so we invest it on wrong place and to the wrong people.

@@mp8584what?
400. Holy moly. Why are people paying that kind of money for a bowl
Because a bowl is worth $50 max... Art is "priceless"
Agreed. But I guess when you got money to blow you might as well
You jealous because you're poor with no taste?😢
Because people are dumb, spending that amount of money on broken wood that was repurposed to a bowl definitely not worth that much.
@@lemonking3644 oof. you got me. I like the bowls but I have too many kids.
I love the Keith Haring sticker on the back of the bandsaw! Haha alien workshop colab? I make stuff from old skateboards too but nothing this nice! Good shit keep wood out of the landfill and in your workshops!
$400 for a bowl made of beaten up skateboards they got for free? Nope, straight scam.
I totally agree, they value their work a bit too much.
I dont know, if you look at how long it takes, he's only asking for what $10-$15/hr? Thats really not unreasonable.
@droods yeah but that doest include acquiring the boards, removing the grip tape, sanding down the boards, cutting them down, then gluing them into whatever base shape you need.
Precious plastic will be very interesting for a video. Dave Haken spent years on a big mission to fight plastic pollution
Very good case of recycling. Don't know if they are getting those boards for free, or pay for them, but $400 is a really expensive, and I personally would've paid maybe $40.
Woodworking takes time, skill, materials and tools all of which need to be compensated for. For a hand turned bowl, $400 is not an insane price, especially considering the unique look and story behind it. You might not be willing to pay for it, but there are people who will. Beyond that they are taking a "waste" product and removing it from the waste stream.
@RJDA The free wood?
This recycled skateboard wood is amazing, a lot of work. I’ve seen a guy do similar with coloured pencils and that looks great too.
The versatility is incredible. Screw driver handles, jewellery it all looks fantastic. Nice to see the mrs getting into it too!
They use fine, usable coloured pencils and waste it for acrylic art. It's not recycling. This is different from that.
@@ackshayshukla Its not wasting them if its art.
@@MRMEEP737 is that sarcasm? I hope so.

@@Hakikat-Se7en But, why? Just because one can doesn't mean they should or need to. It's great what they're doing... but if a bowl is $400... then a coffee table...
Just a very niche market. How big could that market be?
@@faitherific n no it big at all. And 90% of their possible customers WILL be pushed away due to the price. They can’t think in the current economy the general population would have the money to spend this.
that would be cool if all skateshops had return policies so boards could be used like this
This is very cool! The price for a bowl or even their furniture is ridiculous.
This is awesome!!! Nice work guys!
One of the best recycling methods for boards and love the designs it ends up as a result
Why do people even need those bowls? Will normal bowls not do?
Solving problems created by consumerism with more consumerism is not gonna work.
@@mma8208 its more of the creative aspect of it its not something id likely buy rather id make one if I was that interested but will say a proper lathe and proper tools isnt that cheap either unless you know people as i do with these machines but i get your point a bowl is a bowl 🥣 sometimes we eat from bowls others smoke from them 😆
@@mma8208 handcrafted items that require two weeks of labor on up-cycled trash do not represent "consumerism"... That's the antithesis of consumerism. You're paying the REAL COST of a product, not the deflated cost of mass production. It's reducing the amount of waste, not increasing it. These bowls are better because regular bowls, a product of consumerism, ignore the environmental cost of their production. You pay $5, the landfill, plastic waste, and pollution make up the other $350.
It means consumers really get to see what the normal things in their life cost, not the very cheap cost of environmentally devastating mass production.
@@avva4090 the real cost isn't 400$. Doesn't take two weeks to make. You've failed withing your own argument. Good job
@@avva4090 and you pay 400 dollar for a bowl made with glue basically what an ignorant , enjoy your healthy clever lifestyle
Very intelligent, very good use of thinking outside the box. I don’t even know you and I’m proud of you.
As a rollerblader and a native American, DAYUM that's a lotta wood.
Skateboarding and art arent too far apart. This is quite the creative combination! And eco-friendly as a plus! Great work guys
Not sure you know what eco friendly means...
eco friendy ? with all that glue and remember these boards used to have a grip tape that means a lot of aluminum oxide (abrasive that I wont put in my stomach while thinking "oh I am so green and eco friendly"
400 for a bowl? That bowl better grow a hand and give me a happy ending 😂
I'm surprised that they apparently actually manage to sell enough of that stuff at high enough prices to justify the very substantial amount of work. good for them. and in case it wasn't just for the camera, props for the thorough use of the respirator! :)
Regular bowl: 15$
Their bowl: 400$
“Why is no one buying recycled stuff!?!?”
I’m guessing the added labor to recreate it raises the profit margin. Seems odd though that it would be so expensive especially when it’s literally donated to them. I doubt they buy the broken decks from previous owners. I mean you still get money back when you recycle aluminum.
You can’t get a handcrafted wood bowl for 15$
@@dalivanwyngarden3204 no but $400 ? I mean… that’s a bit much.
Hats off to them for their creative idea and also making an effort to reduce the amount of trash
Honestly a brilliant idea. The only pushback would be whether it is sanitary. Im talking abt potential customers who are not aware of the process and only see it as board to bowl.
I expect the bowls are coated in some sort of resin so there shouldnt be an issue with the grime from the boards touching anything that goes in the bowl
He’s essentially making plywood out of plywood. I would never pay $400 for that bowl.
You're missing the point. These plywood have a history, a sentimental value. Plus, they're very unique looking works of art. Imagine yourself making them. How much would you sell them for?
@@mishasoup8531 well it does take time to do. They look amazing as well. I guess it’s a fair price. I just would buy them.

@@mattfontana I acknowledge your opinion. But can you tell me how it’s “thievery” if its just one person making a difference in their community? You can say art is subjective all you want but art comes in many different forms is “wtf im saying.” Thats great that you’ve seen better, good for you man. I apologize for giving somebody recognition lol…
remember when my family moved into a new construction community, me and my dad would always go 'dumpster diving' into the containers of waste material the ammount of perfectly good amazing condition pipes and wood we found is crazy.
I've been hoping someone would do this ever since I've seen that( Japanese I believe)artist trophies at the BATB that one year...I'm sorry his name is slipping me right now.

I had a stack of about 20 broken skateboards back when I was younger, they ended up in the trash. I wanted to make something out of them but then I realized I have no skills.
i love how youtube can bring people with similar interests together. cant say that about other platforms
a beautifully divisive comment on unity 👏🏾
Keep up the good work, I personally love skateboarding and I'm so glad you can make something beautiful out of broken skateboards. 👍
Whoaaaa, making stuff out of used skateboards... Now that's so freaking innovative...
400 for a wooden bowl, no way that is far too expensive I know there is skill involved and they do look really nice but come on 400.
Not much skill for this. Just time
Wood lathe is the easiseeyt thing to use, no skills needed. I worked with methal lathe its muvh more complex and working with different metal, you need to learn a lot. But still its not hard skill.
For a piece of wood art 400 bucks is not overly expensive unfortunately
Can anyone notice how economical their revenue is, spend less earn more, 400 for the trash, skills speaks man. Kudos to the team.
Upscale takes 15 days, glue, electricity, labour, sold to insta generation, who won't plant a tree but want to feel good on their purchase *And its sold for 4 times the cost of the board*
I think you’ve been misinformed by opinions and not facts. It’s well documented in studies that the younger generations (millennials, Gen Z) are the most environmentally conscious and giving generation to date. Obviously that’s a huge brush to paint all of them with so there’s going to be varieties of all types but take heart in knowing the next generation is doing a little better than us and the next one after them will do a little better yet. 🙂
The "insta generation" are going to be the ones hopefully pulling us out of this tailspin. The boomer style of filing landfills and oceanic garbage patches has done serious damage.
Are you from that generation that majorly fucked up the planet in the first place?
An African workshop turns flip flops into sculptures in a similar process. This was a pretty neat video, interesting idea for sure
This is amazing! Love the up-cycling and creativity. Keep it up!
I'd love to see how industry recycles lithium batteries. I know it's a relatively new industry but with electric cars growing I wonder if there will be resource shortages soon.
It’s simple. They don’t… they also get all the electricity for charging those car batteries from coal, gas or petrol. Electric cars, at the moment are far from being good for the environment.
@@AlexanderMason1 where I live it's all hydro.
@@lornelee1891 yeah we smoke hydro in Australia aswell 🤣
So everyone says Tesla is so wonderful but people have no idea how much of the earth gets fucked up digging for lithium. Electric cars aren't the future at all. If anything they will destroy the earth faster then gas/ diesel cars will.
@@AlexanderMason1 yep and the digging for the Lithium destroys our planet more and more each day. EV cars are not the future at all. They harm the environment way more then gas powered cars will ever do.
Is there a link for the earrings?
Those coffee tables look incredible
This is such a ridiculous, gimmicky concept.. It would make more sense to cover recycling operations that actually work..
Made a 26" scooter from Scratch for my Nephew for Christmas. I was on 'low-cash' that year. Shaped one of my old decks for the foot base. I balanced the fork to be able to roll it no handed, lean it in the direction you wanted to go. I guess someone else wanted it. Disappeared 2011 😑
Hate to hear it man. Shame

It appears that these two are pricing their products based on the labor required to make them. If that price seems too high, feel free to wait for the knockoffs made with lower quality, cheaper labor, and without the recycling based ethos.
We got a virtue signal over here ⬆️
Lower quality broken skate boards? Either way, good idea.
Hahaha wtf is this comment? What a joke. Idc how much time or recycling based ehthos was dumped into that bowl. It’s a fkn bowl. And it’s dumb af people pay 400 just to say “hey look that bowl was made from skateboards”
Awesome 🤣 people are dumb.

Inspiring. Love and respect from Burma (Myanmar)! You guys rock!
I wonder if shipping all the boards to their place is worse for the environment then planting a tree and cutting it down for the end product
I'm sure it is. Environmentalism is almost always used as a marketing tool rather than for any legitimate altruistic purpose
Oh no doubt
It was mentioned that they collect the boards at local stores and the new tree also has to be transported to their shop, plus dried which is quite energy intensive if you use a kiln drying process.
@@marcusaurelius841 broad statement. too broad. recycling cans, I know Americans are new to it, but it's important, aluminum takes a lot of energy, no one actually cares, we just do our part, no one is getting off on recycling bub. Sorry, not no one, because these bowls exist, MOST PEOPLE are not.
Try to think before writing. Your logic is beyond stupid.
1. A material that already exists, that is easily available, that takes just a few steps to reuse and that is almost entirely removed from the garbage chain by reusing it is ALWAYS better for the environment than throwing it into the garbage and using new material instead.
2. You have absolutely no idea how much energy and ressources you need to end up with a piece of wood to work with.
I always wondered why real skateboards were expensive but a lot of time effort and love goes into making a homemade skateboard much respect to those people and these people for recycling
Usually skateboards are expensive because of the name behind it. Like a Tony Hawk board or someone like that.
@@froey198033 No, the only reason why boards could be "expensive" is because its imported from another country. Their normal price is ok as its a very perfected process of the wood.
I have never put a skateboard in the garbage.
But with that said, at least a skateboard breaks down in the ground
Keep up the good work and love the appreciation for skateboarding and your craft.
As a former skateboarder, they should totally slap some 90º metal angles on top of those furniture!
Okay a thought, what happens with all that material that you shave off to create said bowl?
I mean the bowl actual material that's left after you have lathed it is very minimal to the material you are using to create it.
According to this video it takes 20 tail/nose sections to create just 1 bowl.
That will create ALOT of waste material.
The shavings from the lathe, which are maple and the resin glue mixed together, are you recycling that material in any way?
Because otherwise you're basically just changing the form of that "trash" that you are "upcycling", from broken skateboards to shavings, which in turn will either be burned or left in landfill.
I.e this sounds like greenwashing to me.
Sure I like the look and concept alot, I mean the idea is great and it's a nice piece of art.
But If you're not taking care of all that waste this produces you should not market is as even close to sustainable.
Listen. These boards get thrown out. These guys pick them up and make furniture and bowls. The stuff they make is cool and doesn't use real lumber. Those decks have already been used for years but what they do doubles their lifespan. Sure materials wise oh the resin and whatever will be bad yada yada. That's not the point or what they advertised
@@grqfes I agree with that it's a really nice concept, and I love when people create things out of trash basically.
It's great.
My point is that they do advertise it as being a way to hinder these boards from ending up in landfill.
But if they actually are ending up in landfill anyway, just in a different shape (shavings)..
They should not market it as any sort of solution to the landfill problem, but rather as a really cool way to re-use old skateboards into art and furniture.
Which as I said, is a really great idea.
I work in the fashion industry with design and product dev. and I see so many companies literally dying t-shirts green with some planet earth print and they will call it sustainable without any improvement in the production process - this is why I chose to call this out even though I like it, see it everywhere and it's not great.
@@crapcat19 It's a youtube comment, not a party.
But yes some critical thinking can often spice things up, you should try it.
Wow you're incredibly smug for being so stupid. They're reusing the broken boards to begin with, so essentially your complaint is they throw away maybe 10% of material that was previously 100% wasted!
So you're actually talking shit about only 90% of waste being saved and reused?
@@BarbarishFTW "If they're ending up in a landfill anyway" MORON, a SMALL PERCENT. The way you're complaining and dishonestly wording it is as if all of it or even more ends up wasted. If they saved 10% it would be a benefit, but you're bitching about shavings.
Thats really awesome to see these guys making products for the 1%ers out there who spend $400 on a bowl. Well done guys.
Yeah but how much of that 1% will actually buy a $400 bowl or a expensive piece of furniture because not all of them will like the colors and design. So I really can't see this lasting a long time unless they get commissioned piece's by the wealthy.
If you made a bowl out of a bourd that was tony hawks, and he signed it. I still wouldn't pay $400.00
I didn't plan on watching all 8 minutes of this but so glad I did.
Some people spend $2,000 for a pair of jeans. Others, they wear it once and throw them out because they can. I'm just happy when things go on sale 😂😂😂
That guy about halfway through really reminds me of Tony Hawk.

Wow, repurposing old skateboards only to rip people off with ugly, overpriced bowls, what a service to society they provide, can’t imagine what we’d do without them.

Bought a bowl made out of skateboard and brought it home.

Im from Edmonton and got some broken boards boys, now I know I can sell em, 2$ each 🤗
So cool! Love seeing artist value their own work by setting a price they can make a profit with while sharing the important process of upcycling and craftsmanship! Bravo!
damn a full set of Festool
The creatations are so beautiful and unique. Yes, I could imagine these selling for high prices, especially for people who buy high price furniture. I think some of your pieces need to be added to museum collections.
You are exactly the problem, these people should not be congratulated for overselling their products but shamed. Charging someone an extortionate amount of money for such a low value item, especially an item without any real artistic embroidery or patterns but just a machine fabricated lot item, deserves nothing but shame.
@@cleverpork55 he’s right dude🤷♂️
@@cleverpork55 no, because of the exorbitant price... but we can all have different opinions and I respect that
It‘s 100% handmade and recycled. Every piece is thereby unique. You are talking about luxury brand dude.
@@SCARRIOR THANK YOU.
