Now that Clark Foam has closed its doors because of EPA issues, we hope that people will start using blanks that are made in a more sustainable and environmentally responsible manner. We are a bunch of friends interested in surfing in an environmentally responsible way and we recently did some research on things like surfboard blanks and surfwax. We found that there are some companies that are making blanks in an environmentally conscious way. The two we found are Eden Project and Point Blank. You can check them out yourself on the web www.edenproject.com and www.pointblanks.com Thanks!
