New York-based designer Beck Hickey creates bags, belt buckles, money clips and other useful stuff from recycled skateboard decks for her Beck(y) line. All handmade, the accessories juxtapose "battered discarded objects with pristine new materials". For every used skateboard deck she receives, she donates $3 to non-profit organizations that help build and maintain public skateparks across the country. $30-150 ::Beck(y)

i think that recycling skateboards are so cool.If you can recycle old skateboards then companies can make new awsome skateboards! keep up the good work on recycling thoes boards and maybey i will buy one someday the u recycled.
I love these bags! I own a little shop in Lander, WY where I sell unique upcycled originals, mostly made by me. I would love to wholesale these bags and phenomenal skateboard items for my shop. Thanks!
I think those bags look great! I tried to go into Becky's page to find where I can purchase them but it's not permitted...something is wrong with her page...if anyone knows where I can purchase the bags let me know...
