MISSION

Skateboarders at Ralph's kate parkCreated by Art of Board, I Ride I Recycle leads the charge for sustainability in the skateboard industry. Through a powerful network of participating shops and manufacturers across the U.S. and Australia, we collect thousands of pounds of broken, blemished and used skateboard decks for upcycling and re-use.

Our mission is to keep broken skateboards out of landfills, put used boards in the hands of underprivileged kids, support local skate and surf shops, create community and support skateboarding at its core. Through I Ride I Recycle, we transcend a rider’s environmental footprint, enhance social consciousness and create meaningful impact through charitable causes.
