Greener Construction
By implementing measures such as the use of aluminum stringers instead of wood, eliminating PU foams or resin for glassing, reducing energy production, and ensuring complete recycling of waste, the surfboard construction reduces its overall carbon footprint, resulting in a more environmentally friendly product. Additionally, all supplies are locally sourced in Peru, making the process even more sustainable.
With quality maintenance, our boards are built to last a lifetime. By providing proper care and knowing how to repair in case of any accident, our boards can even be passed down to generations. If you no longer want the board, its components are easily disassembled and recyclable, ensuring a sustainable approach to board disposal.
From surfers to surfers
Our boards are 100% handcrafted in Peru from surfers to surfers with precision and care, making each board authentic and truly one-of-a-kind.
At Yaku, we are surfers at heart with a mission to create soft boards that strike the perfect balance between performance and durability maintaining the art of the craft
Innovation is part of our DNA
Our patented «Magic box fin system» allows you to use both single tabl or double tab fins on the same board This system is ideal for wave pools where fins are prone to breaking when hitting the concrete. In the event of a breakage, you can just swap the base with a new one and you’re good to go!
