I use my old snowboard as a triple set of shelves after I broke it into three pieces. It holds most of my snowboard gear that can fit on it. Also looks badass.

A sick bench. Or add some wood to it for a box to practice jibbing on over the summer.

you should make an awesome shelf to keep all your bits and bobs on!!!

I’d slice that sucker in half, bolt some flag pole brackets onto it and add an old school metal legged chair. Toss a few of those on top of a cracked ice course and we’ve got a new olympic sport!

toothpicks

you can place some pillows under it and make it the “coolest” place to meditate !

i think i would find some huge dirt board trucks and put it on the bottom of that sucker and build a cupple jumps and a rail and go to town down a hill if that didnt work i would through some grip tape on the top and make a longboard that rides just like the board use to.

I’ll reuse it as a present for somebody who couldn’t afford one.

Considering I wasn’t fast enough to get my real answer in before others did, I’m going to go with a bonfire to sacrifice it to the snowboard gods. Maybe spread the ashes up on Hood where it lived a good life.

I would make it part of a skate ramp!

If the snowboard is still good you could donate it to a lot of different organizations like Kid Sports or Right To Play who would pass it on to kids who can use it.

I would attach some pegs to it and make it into a coat rack to hang the awesome gear i won from snowboardermag.com

I would take my old snowboard and make a waxing/work bench. I could wax my snowboard on a bench made out of an old snowboard. Reuse and Recycle, One Love!

Bench, Shelf, home training board, tree swing, etc.

If i could acquire the tools to do it, i would definitely cut some rectangles through it make it into a picture frame filled with some of my best riding shots/ memories

play slip and slide in the yard

i like to take my old boards cut them into random sized squares and make mosaic type decorations, they usually turn out really well. or make a snowboard club type thing and make a paddle, theres gotta be some type of initiation right?

If you have an old snowboard that you no longer want, go talk to your local shop. They should be able to help you at least get in touch with the right people. There are a number of charitable programs that will accept snowboards as donations. You know you’re helping out someone less fortunate and can earn yourself some tax credit. If your snowboard isn’t in useable condition, there are recycling centers that are equipped to shred down old boards and use the leftover bits for composite decking, flooring, furniture… It’s definitely worth the effort to look into the various programs in your area, again a local shop should be able to help you out. Every little bit helps, and you can never have enough good karma.

I would make a bench as cool as my creative possibilities go

You could make a rail by sliding on the base of it!!! And it’s portable

I would use an old snowboard to try and remake a Signal’s every third thursday board. Personally, i think the survival board would be very useful for back country. It would be an awesome conversation starter to pick up babes as well.

I give my old boards and gear that i have grown out of to my family that likes to shred, but i want to start saving boards for shelving features in a man cave

I like to donate my old stuff so other kids, who may be less fortunate than I was, may experience the same happiness I did whenever I got up to hill.

I would use it as a giant kitchen knife to slice thin cuts of meat with the edge.

If i had not one but TWO old snowboards I would bolt in some ski bindings and go by all the typical liftline skiers that all they talk about is how fat there skis are and they would look pretty stupid standing next to the boats on my feet……. or maybe i would just look stupid. “yeah there about 250 under foot.”

We made a spinning table with multiple positions out of my last 3 snowboards. Put a lag bolt in the middle and used an old speaker box for the base. Turned out pretty AWESOME!

Here is a link to a picture of it: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=268548679839119&set=a.267002846660369.83746.208768305817157&type=3&theater

Give that puppy to a fledgling rider.

First: you could do the oviouse and donate it to a store or resort as a used board (always a good choice for the kids who want to ride but can’t afford a bew board. Plus saved the materials needed to make that new board)
Second: If it is really beat up, with the right tools the possibilites are virtuall endless; shelf, bench, add pegs for a coat rack, you can even use a power saw to cut out circles to make coasters (actually pretty cool)

I would cut out a semi circle out of one side, then sharpen the opposite side to make a boomerang weapon to use when I go big game hunting for kangaroos and such. When the kangaroos jump over it the first time, it would come from behind and get them! Thus providing my family with delicious roo meat that we can store to survive the winter!

I would carve it into a bong that doubles as a smoking utensil and a sexual pleasuring device for the ladies. I would use the remaining material and create a structure to help stimulate growth and shelter all of my copious amounts of marijuana. I would then take the edges and fashion shivs and bake them into cakes and deliver them to all my homies on the inside so they can guard their grills.

I would spread the shred and give to a kid because they are the youth of snowboarding

i used my old capita snowboard for sandboarding behind dirtbikes and then at the end of the day i took my shotgun and put holes in it all throw the night with my friends last summer.

make a bike with snowboard wheels.

Well for starters, I would use my board as a club to capture albatross and harvest their feathers (the albatross has a 10ft+ wingspan, the largest of any bird). Then I would use the feathers and fasten them to my board to create a pair of makeshift wings. I would then patrol the skies, fighting crime and making America a safer place (for snowboarders)!

if you shred your board up, you could mix it with a bio resin to make anything you wanted pretty much. i wouldnt mind eating dinner on my snowboard plate and smashing a beer at apres with my snowboard mug.

this makes no sense

I make them into benches to furnish my house.

cut into 3 parts and make stairs

So im sick of all this ‘ski shot’ business. Picture this. Old snowboard, some glue and a few beer coozies. Glue the beer coozies on the board, cut out a hole in them to poke the can through. Gather the homies. I give you the snowboard shotgun, doesn’t that have a better ring to it then ski shot?

I would use my snowboard as a work bench or desk for building and repairing snowboards, skateboards, and longboards :)

when i don’t want to ride my snowboard anymore i test it to destruction and i usually break it :(

Cut a large Glory Hole in the middle, then stick my dick through it and let all the snow sluts slob my nob!!!

Well, you probably won’t pick my entry here, but just because you don’t want to ride a snowboard anymore, & you’ve got a newer or different one that you like better, doesn’t mean that there’s not a WHOLE bunch of kids out there that would love to have your snowboard, not to mention any snowboard at all; & just have the chance to even try it, even one time! There are thousands of kids in this country not to mention the millions elsewhere in the world that don’t even consider ever really having a snowboard of their own simply ’cause it’s too expensive for them & they could never get one themselves, not to mention their parents. I’m not gonna’ go off here about socio-economic “classes” in our society & the rest of the world & how in reality snowboarding is obviously more accessible for the upper middle-class & beyond, but the truth is the truth, most of us snowboarders are kind of spoiled, really…, & we don’t even stop & think about it that much. I say the best way to “recycle”/reuse a snowboard, as long as it’s still good enough to ride, is to simply get it to somebody that can’t afford one themselves & give them the chance to try it out! There are a number of organizations out there that are already kind of doing this, in different ways, most of us have heard about S.O.S. Outreach Intl., but there are others as well. Part of the problem with that though is they’re almost always located & do their thing where major resorts are already established, & the rest of the country & world are still left out. When it really comes down to it, not many of us can really do a whole lot about this, even if we wanted to, but it’s kind of one of those “Think Globally, Act Locally” kind of things, or beyond if you can. Where I live, in the Midwest, there obviously are not mountains, we don’t have the best snow, but you enjoy it for what it is, & try to have as much fun as possible. There have been many, many times, when I was just in the local 2nd hand sporting goods consignment store, that I’ve seen bindings, boots, or a board on occasion that are actually still in really good condition, sometimes practically new, & if I was rich, I would’ve bought them & eventually got them to somebody else that they would’ve worked out for, & you know they’d be stoked! Let’s face it, when you don’t have much money, & you’re “new” to snowboarding, free or discounted equipment is a huge plus! I happen to live in a college town so I know it’s not like most places per se, most of that equipment I’m seeing that I’m referring to, was more than likely taken there by a college student who tried snowboarding a year or two before & realized they sucked at it & decided to get rid of it, whether it was through there, eBay, selling it to somebody they knew, on Craigslist, or however else have you. The point is this, really, share the love & the stoke! It’s true it’s not for everybody, but if nothing else, you can make more friends & share the love, & if you’re lucky, it’ll continue & multiply through them as well; & when it’s all said & done, that’s what really matters most of all people, LOVE!! Snowboarding, life, love, people, & continuance, Later peeps, peace!

I would put trucks on my snowboard and some grip tape and add wheels and make it into a snowskateboard.

I would take the snowboard and donate it to an under-privileged town so it could be used to help construct a playground in a park. It would make the cost of the park lower, while also adding some flare to the park the kids might enjoy, instead of just a park being painted one solid color.

i would split it in half and use it as skis!!!!

I would make a parkboard. Attach 2 skateboard wheels to each end and 2 in the middle. Then go shred around in the summer.

Burn that shit so it will snow more next year

Give it to a kid. or make something out of it. a bench or a doghouse. or repaint the topsheet and hang it up.

I would cut my snowboard/skis into a fence posts and use them to border the backyard garden

Yeah you could pass on your board to a kid or another rider and have the best story at the Thanksgiving table, but you forget that you love that twig, and you want to continue to shred that stick until it finds new life in the pet cemetery. So heres what I’d do: “Don’t want to ride it anymore”… whaaaaaaat? I’m not sure there is a better topsheet for a rail than a butchered deck. Wax that puppy up and strap on some 4x4s and you’re on the way to hours of crooked grinding.

paint it and hang it on the wall

I would probably use the snowboard as a spring or summer board by waxing it and edging it.

Carve it up (no pun intended) and make ukelele out of it. It might work.

Put wheels on it Then I got an awesome long skate board to go!

don’t want to ride it anymore :O are you crazy?! haha if it is about time the board needs retiring, i would screw in some supports, dig it into the snow and have a backyard fun box/flat rail ! constant 24/7 jibbing!

i always give mine to a charity for them to sell or something but ive also use them as decorations and cool showoff peices in my house.

For me to not want to use my snowboard anymore, I would have to be dead. I guess it would make a good (and appropriate) headstone for me when I am buried

I would put it on the back of my car and use it as a spoiler.

Any boards that I snap or outdate I keep and make into snowboard benches. I actually have two and one I donated to my local shop. My favorite consists of three forum boards from the Forum 8 years. My friends always get pumped on reliving those years when we are drinking some brews in the back and reminiscing. Each board has specific memories and its great being able to recycle those memmories every time I’m hanging out in the backyard.

if theyre completely broken, make em into furniture with a few simple attatchments, benches, cofee tables, book shelves, fencing, lawn ornaments. If theyre still somewhat rideable then its fun to take a jig and cut out whacky shapes inspired by snowboardings past.

cut it in half and use it for skis for under your truck tiers like a real redneck would!

i’d turn an old deck into a shelf or a couple into an old bench…swag for my house

I’d probably give it to someone who wanted to get into the sport but felt money for gear was an obstacle. That way, someone gets to enjoy snowboarding as much as I do. Either that or I’d make a coffee table out of it. How BA would that be?!

Make a seat or a bench

I would probably make a list of 100 things you can do with an old snowboard and then choose one of this 100 things and do it, yeah I would do that !

The easiest is to make benches of snowboards, but not only for private-use, also for public places. Imagine Central Park in New York city full of snowboard benches. That would certainly give our sport a huge boast and make it more famous. Cheap and ecological publicity!
If you’re really fanatic, you can go even further, for example rooftiles for a bus stop and so on. How cool would that be! Snowboardlise the city!

I would pass on the passion so it can make somebody else as happy as it made me

I would probably give it to one of my cousins or someone younger than me so they can enjoy it as much as i did. Or if its too beat up make a bench for my local board shop or some shelves. I would do what ever i could think of. there are so many possibilities as to what you could make.

Shelves, park bench, or convert it to a skateboard

At the moment my old board serves as wall decoration :)
Looks pretty awesome imo!

If i really get tired of it, i would just pass it up to someone who wants to start snowboarding.

use some unbroken edge as a shaver !

Throw it on the wall and display it. Most snowboards have artwork on em that deserve to be displayed.

A new ironing board

I would take my old snowboard and send it to iNi Cooperative, where they do a phenomenal job focusing on recycling resources/materials and let them do what they please so they can bring back the snowboard to life through nature between you and I! So someone like you can enjoy it like I once did.

I would totz make into a divin board and jump on that allllll dayyy longgg :D

Lots of awesome used for a used board. First, if you LOVED riding the board, hang it as a piece of art on the wall. If you have others, use it as a bench at the dining room table – not too hard to make. Use a piano bench as the base and drill away. OR, if you have a cabin or sit ourdoors, cut it in two and use it for an Adirondack style chair. Right now, I have skateboards mounted on the wall as bookshelves – try that. The possibilities are endless and keep the daily desire to ride alive!
Oh, and what a great replacement for my cardboard trampoline trainer!

cut it into 3 pieces, and get a plastic bottom, and a piece of glass and make a fishtank out of it…Mått

I would where iNi gear while shredding natural features such as tree jibs and look good while I carpool or hitchhike to the mountain!

turn it in to a spoiler for my subi!!

Combining my love of snowboarding & food I’d turn it into a set of serving platters & a cheese board!

i would most definitely make a pong table out of it. Boots to hold it up, with about 3 or 4 foot aluminum pipes in the board and boots so it kinda looks like the board is supported by the boots?
Or, I would combine all my old boards and make a door out of them, unique and could be an item used almost daily.

I would nail it to my ceiling so that it reminds me of all the good times I had on it whilst falling asleep

make it into a skateboard

I would turn it into a park bench for my room. I would use the board as the backrest for the bench. I would make the bench seat and legs out of recycled wood i have left over from making a quarterpipe. Imagine how awesome it would be to have a wooden bench with a snowboard backrest!?

I’ve been thinking about this on and off for the past week and I’m trying to imagine what I would do if I wanted to stop riding mine. Honestly, if you don’t want to ride one any more, give it to someone who needs one. I need a snowboard right now because I’m living off of rentals and I would love if someone gave me one…

We take an old snowboard… made holes on it with a drill ( with a diameter of little glasses ) and on every party we fill it with old kind of vodka and we just have fun!!

i will use my broken snowboard as boxspring support for my twin bed considering my boxspring is broken, but it will also come in handy for snowboard repairs like blown out edges that can be macgyvered back to perfection

I would use it as a backyard jib or something. Or i could put it on a dope collage of some sort. That would look pretty cool. I could also use it as a cutting board in the kitchen… clean that shit off and cut up some good ole steaks on that sucker

i’d break it into pieces and cool shapes and make a headboard for my bed! I think it’d look great with my snowboard poster infested room

I just yell at everyone in my neighborhood until they start recycling. Hey it works!!! I call it tough motivation!
