who are we ?

Our reason for being:

Forerunner and specialist in the manufacture of D.I.Y. skateboards, our core business is the training and the supply of materials and tools necessary for the entire manufacturing process.

From the beginner to the expert, making your own skateboard or other project in glued and curved laminates, such as a chair with particular curves or a guitar has become affordable and easy to design.

Training for individuals, future shapers and wood schools, our goal is to democratize and make the practice recognized as a profession in its own right.

We work with shapers, carpenters, luthiers and markers.

We also collaborate with various associations in the field of solidarity, skateboarding, and youth.

A family story: 

About 20 years ago in Canada Ted Hunter was looking for an idea for a playful carpentry workshop for his students at the University of Toronto.

A polystyrene mould and vacuum press combined with the quality of Canadian maple veneer and the patented invention was born.

His niece, Sarah Jackson imported the concept to Europe 7 years later.

Based for 5 years in the Bordeaux region, the company has been developing in line with the world of craftsmanship and the practice of D.I.Y. which is increasingly being revalued. 

An eco-responsible concept: 

Our veneer: 

Roarockit supplies Canadian maple from a sawmill participating in the SFI (Sustainable forest initiative) program.

Participants in the SFI (Sustainable Forest Initiative) program think of forest owners who have an essential stewardship responsibility and commitment to the ecosystem.

They recognize the importance of maintaining a commercial base while sustaining family forests and conserving viable forest lands.

They support sustainable forestry practices on the forest estates they manage, as well as promotion on other estates. 

What we do:

Concerned about the ecosystem that surrounds us, we provide our clients with a means of action for reforestation.

Indeed they can reduce their carbon impact by planting a tree at the time of their purchase on our website. 

Our materials :

The parts of our kits are all reusable and / or recyclable, designed for years of use they can also be used for other wood projects, and not only skateboards.

The glues, paints and coatings we use are water-based.

Travelling on a self-made skateboard is an environmentally friendly means of transportation and a great exercise.
