I think it would easily snap!  H & S would reject it before it got off the drawing board.

1st there was aluminium....so light!

2nd there was glass fibre...even lighter!

3rd there was carbon fibre..lighter still...yet more rigid!

4th...............................................................................?

I have seriously looked at bamboo and it's possibilities. It is the lack of uniformity that causes problems in manufacture. :(
