916 Born, Forged in the Shadows 🥢🔴⚫
From Sacramento’s underground, All.Thaid.Up — also known as ATU or Darth Natrix — built his name one roll at a time. There’s no production line here, no shortcuts, just a craftsman working with bamboo skewers, steady hands, and a patient approach. Each piece reflects discipline and precision, rooted in a deep respect for the tradition.
Thai Stick Roots
Drawing from the Vietnam-era method, ATU revived the lost art of the Thai stick. Flower is carefully set on bamboo, coated in rosin, wrapped in leaf, and slow-cured to perfection. The process is intentional, designed for structural integrity, smooth combustion, and balance — much like the double-bladed saber it’s often compared to.
Donut Pioneer
Before “hash-hole” became common vocabulary, ATU was already embedding rosin cores into his rolls. Mid-burn, the center blossoms into a perfect white donut — a visual and flavorful signature nicknamed the “dark side halo.”
Premium to the Core
Each creation carries 4–6 grams of indoor flower and 0.5–1 gram of fresh-press rosin, wrapped in fan leaf and tied with hemp wick. Humidity is maintained at a precise 55% to ensure an even draw and extended burn, elevating the smoke session into a ritual.
The Double-Bladed Cannagar
ATU’s most recognized format features two finished ends meeting in a slow-burning core. Known as “Sith Sticks,” these builds demand patience, precision, and absolute consistency — trademarks of ATU’s craft.
Alliances & Apprentices
Special releases include the “Outlaw” collab with City Exclusives 415. All production rolls are finished exclusively with Organitips — wood or glass only — and ATU’s bamboo molds for Thai sticks are fully custom-made, avoiding any silicone materials.
Holonet Hype
ATU was featured in High Times’ 2023 “Ones to Watch: The Roller Economy” and is recognized on Reddit’s r/artofrolling as a Sacramento-grown master roller, respected for skill and adherence to tradition.
Rare as Kyber
ATU’s work is never licensed or sold in dispensaries. All pieces move exclusively through the traditional market and never directly from him. Monthly production is limited — typically 200 to 400 units — and priced for the discerning connoisseur.
Collector’s Weapon
Each roll is finished with Organitips — wood or glass, nothing else. Many collectors keep them sealed until the perfect occasion, treating them as both smokeable art and heirloom-quality craft.
The Dark Side of Craft
ATU’s work blends ancient Thai stick technique with modern solventless precision. Built for true connoisseurs, every roll is an offering to the culture — only pressure, never play. Much love.
