ABOUT US
Created in 2017 with the goal of producing a durable, environmental friendly and high performance surfboards, we started combining advanced motorsports and aerospace composites with 3D printing technology.

Our vision is to bring the latest technology to the surfboards craftmanship to benefit the ocean, nature and the surfers. We re-invented from scratch the whole manufacturing process of surfboards to make it sustainable, non-toxic and recyclable (closing the circular economy loop) while increasing performance and durability.

R&D
R&D is a key pillar of Black Sands Surfboards in order to bring innovation to the production process with unique technologies:
- Modular Core technology:  Our unique PATENT PENDING technology, allows us to adjust and fine tune flex behavior of the board to obtain our signature: Anisotropic Vectorial Flex
- Micro 3D CAD : 99% shape precision and repeatability
- 3D printing + advanced composites: Light, performance, durable and environmental friendly

STEP1 - Strength and durability
High stress and impact testing via kitesurfing in extreme conditions
STEP2 - Flex, response and ride comfort
Use perfect and repeatable waves at Alaïa wavegarden pool to focus only on board parameters
STEP3 - Real wave conditions
Consolidate board design out in the field

OUR COMMITMENT

HANDCRAFTED FOR THE OCEAN
Our boards are crafted with 100% recycled cores and bio-based resins, reducing carbon emissions by up to 70% vs. traditional boards. Sustainable at the core!
Minimal Waste: Using the least amount of material in the entire industry, increasing performance and durability. Less waste, more waves.

BOARDS MADE FROM BOARDS!
Shaping a Circular Future: Our long-term vision is to reuse materials from old boards and close the loop, creating a truly circular surfboard lifecycle. Sustainability isn’t a trend, it’s our commitment!
