Bamboo is the new "carbon fiber".
They've been recently experimenting and marketing skis as well.

Oh, you silly goose. Bamboo is used to make bulletproof vests, grills, truck chassis... es, and bank vaults... and steel. ;):D

In all seriousness, my biggest concern would be its continued durability after being struck by many shots since cycling helmets and hockey masks require different protective properties.
