    Good question! All our boards are fitted with vents that allow them to breathe. Either a goretex one or a bung style one depending on the customers needs :)

    Diffficult to trace responsible, biodiverse, regenerative growth and production...needs to travel half way round the globe and locally grown cedar works perfectly for us :)
