Getting Green

As mankind continues to expand their knowledge of the world we live in, we learn that many of the products that we thought were safe to use are now found to be hazardous to either us, the environment, or both.

Methyl Ethyl Ketone Formaldehyde (MEKF) is a cancer producing agent that is present in many types of adhesives and resins. Many wetsuits are made using this chemical, especially on the lower end. I won't name names but be assured that no current wetsuits made by Rocket Science Sports contain this chemical.

One of Rocket Science Sports' primary goals other than to make the most technically advanced products is to make the safest and most eco friendly products on the market today.

Happy, healthy racing to you! Cheers!

Behold! Stunning Product Reviews!

Yesterday, TriGearReview.com posted a review of our Elite wetsuit, RJ bag, and our timing chip strap.

Now I want you all to understand that reviews come in a couple flavors. First is the review that you pay someone a fee for. Obviously the trend in these types of reviews are a bit skewed, seeing that if the company wants to continue being paid for reviews, they'd better give everyone that pays them sparkling remarks. These types of reviews can be spotted over time, as they seem never to have much of anything bad to say about any product.

So what we do is purposely stay away from "fee" reviews because we understand that the quality of our product is best compared in free reviews where the reviewer is under no obligation to say something is great even if it may be a hunk 'o poo. These review can be spotted by the occasional and even frequent pokes or outright slams of products. Still, you have to also be aware that if slams and pokes are not too prominent, then the reviewer could just be a George Foreman type of person (from American Inventor) who cannot seem to say "no, bad!" to anything.

For our most recent "unbias" review go to TriGearReview. Cheers!

What's going on?

Alright, I know I've been a bit quiet, but it's only the calm before the storm.

As I type, Marcin is hard at work overseas developing some really cool stuff. All I can say is it has to do with our Rocket Race Suit, Rocket Bottles, Rocket Bag, and a version of our Rocket Wetsuit. Yes, I said "version". Do I have your attention? Gee, I wish I could elaborate!

So, along with that Marcin is scouting out and setting in place backup factories just in case of, well, just in case. I think it's prudent for us to have a backup plan, don't you?

More news to come soon, hopefully about some sponsorships, a super secret product which will turn the industry on it's ear, and maybe even world peace! Okay, maybe not world peace, but I can dream, right?
