There is a wooden surfboard shaper in Finland who builds boards using old skateboard decks. With a purpose of recycling for tomorrow, he sands down old skateboards to build truly beautiful surfboards. Gathering broken surfboards from anywhere he could get them, Bjorn Holm began breaking them down and creating something new, which is where the name Reto came from. In his language, it means “something broken.”
