Bamboo Surfboards

bamboo_surfboard.gifImagine a surfboard that is 15% lighter than normal, with more control and speed in turns, that resists denting. One that has two third less toxic chemicals. Made from a material with weight for weight twice the strength of fibreglass and six times steel. One ridden by a World Surf Champ legend, like Sunny Garcia. Stretch your imagination further and conjure up a board made from grass. A super grass. Bamboo. (More concrete than waves in your local turf? Hey they do a skateboard too!) ::Bamboo Surfboards [by WM]

I was wondering if the board was coated in anything. Is it just made out of bamboo, or is it coated in a layer of fiberglass and resin?
