3. Recycled Eco Skateboards from Pop Master Innovations
The boards at Pop Master Innovations are for surfing of a different kind. Dads who prefer gliding across a wave of silver concrete can now do so on a board made from “recycled wood fiber veneer substrate and recycled skateboard decks. No lacquer is needed, [the] material is self-sealing and water resistant. [And the process] emits no V.O.C’s in manufacturing.”

4. Helmet B Bike Helmet
“The ‘tatou’ (armadillo) is an animal recognizable with its plates forming a defensive shell when it rolls into ball. Here was born the concept of Helmet B.” The concept helmet created by Julien Bergignat, which is 100% recyclable, is not yet in production (and there are questions as to whether or not it ever will be). But wouldn’t this be a neat way to ensure that dad keeps his head on his shoulders?
