Steve Surfboards was created as an idea to reduce the environmental impact of surfboard manufacturing, rethinking the process of surfboard building with focus on sustainability and reusing materials. Creating functional art. In 2020, The Trash Traveler and Steve became friends and since then “The Trash Wave” was born. Their first project “The Fresh Fish From The Fridge” has been a surfboard made of the isolation of a wrongly discarded fridge, cigarette butts, ocean plastics and even a trousers they found in nature.
