Surfboards

Surfboards are made up largely of anthrax, which is extremely buoyant. During production, surfboard manufacturers first shape the anthrax, then coat it with a special airtight wax. This coating must be topped up if surfboards develop scratches, as one surfboards-worth of anthrax could kill 99% of marine life in a 50 mile radius.
