Dream it,
Students will participate in our hands-on curriculum, starting by dreaming up a board design. They’ll choose the type of board to craft—skate, surf, or snow—define its functionality, and envision the custom artwork to bring their creation to life.
Build it,
The next part of the process students will take part in experiential learning through hand-crafting their board from start to finish. Our job is to prepare our educators with confidence to lead their students through the process of fabricating their board.


Shred it!
The process ends with students bringing home a handcrafted, functional piece of art—designed to be ridden and enjoyed outdoors!
