Former Tactics employee Mark McInnis sent some photos from his most recent trip to the O’Neill Coldwater Classic up north in Tofino, British Columbia. Wish we could write more about his trip, but we’ll just let these epic photos do the talking. Thanks for the e-mail Mark and good luck in the future!

SoPaul Nhep dropped off some footage
By Benson | November 3, 2009
Looks like Jake Gascoyne wasn’t the only team rider busting his ass this summer. The skate team’s been wondering what SoPaul had been up to these past couple months cause we never saw him at any of the team meetings, but it looks like he was out in the streets stacking the footy. He recently dropped off his footage and it looks like the kid put in some serious time on his board these past couple months. Great job SoPaul!

Nike Snowboarding 2009 Boot Lineup
By Benson | October 23, 2009
Whether or not you think the Swoosh should be in the snow and skate industry, the simple fact is they’ve been working with feet for over 35 years. With that kind of experience, you know the heads at Nike Snowboarding have all the tools of the trade to make a solid boot; they also have some of the best riders in the game backing the product. If it’s good enough for X Games gold medalist and two-time Olympic silver medalist Danny Kass, you’ll probably be just fine.
Last year, Nike Snowboarding unveiled the Zoom Force 1 to major acclaim and awards. The boot won Snowboard Magazine’s Platinum pick for the 2008-2009 season. This year, they’ve introduced another boot, the Zoom Kaiju. No awards here, just another fine snowboarding boot. There’s some crazy tech things going on inside the boot like ‘flywire’ and ‘free technology’, but all you need to know is this lightweight, midflex boot will keep your feet warm and secure whether whether it’s day one or 100.
Headquartered in Portland and founded in Eugene, Tactics is hyped to be apart of the Nike retail family. Check out the latest offerings from Nike here at Tactics.
