Rockit Talk Community Blog
http://www.rockitalk.com/
Rockit Talk is our way of highlighting the amazing projects and contributions, that come from our extended (and very talented) Roarockit family. Everyday we are lucky enough to see work created by people using our Thin Air Press technology, and everyday we are amazed by what people have come up with. These projects range from designing skateboards to building boats, and are only limited by the imagination of the builders themselves.
