Here’s the explanation about this ROCKIT! Built by SHAPESHIFTER aka Alan Sidlo

It’s a 6 ply maple rocker, with rolled down edges. there is a 3/16″ foam micro-core which is recessed for impact resistance and sandwiched within a clam shell of 3 plies on top and 3 below - thought it would give it the thicknes of a 9 ply in the center and the stiffness of a 7 or 8 ply without all that extra weight…. instead it feels more like a very flexy 5 ply with the strength of a seven. there’s a generous kick, nose fit for hang’n and with the 22″ wheel base, it has a stiff yet snappy feel which is totally enhanced by its lightness… this board was made for slashing! powered by the 40″ X 9″ roarockit pin tail kit. i like to call it the “one like no other”.
