Poster: A snowHead
|
New Zealand-based Kingswood Skis has become the world's first certified carbon neutral ski manufacturer. They have pioneered the use of sustainable bamboo for ski cores, and have created a carbon-neutral ski....The company won two Sustainable Business Awards for the Southern Region of the Sustainable Business Organisation in 2007 - one for its product and one for its process.
Kingswood claims to have pioneered the use of bamboo for ski cores, and chose bamboo “because it’s strong! (20% stronger than maple) and it’s consistent. It has good pop and shock absorbing qualities. Plus, it regenerates quickly and that’s good for the planet.”

Terrific. I've asked them to stick a couple of pairs in a jumbo for me.

laundryman, I'm keeping my transaction with them carbon neutral - I've saved all the COwhatsit emissions by not placing an order.
