Table tennis bat made from reclaimed skateboards by Skateriors, combining layered deck wood mostly from indoor skateparks.
This table tennis bat started as a skateboard ridden at indoor skateparks and beyond. Once the deck was too worn to skate, it was collected and reshaped by Skateriors into something new.
Skateboards are built from multiple layers of pressed maple wood, often dyed in different colours. When cut and formed into a handle, those layers become visible as colourful stripes. The result is a bat that feels familiar in the hand but looks very different from standard sports gear.
It’s not just decorative. The bat is built to be used. Whether you bring it to a casual game night or keep it as a conversation piece, it carries the energy of the skatepark into a new setting.
If you’d like to learn more about how Skateriors transforms indoor skatepark decks into functional objects, you can explore their full story via the maker page.
Because each bat is made from different skateboards, the colour stripes and patterns vary per piece. The function stays consistent, but every bat looks different.
