					<description><![CDATA[With the motto &#8220;handcrafted by expensive machines&#8221; its easy to love O-matic snowboards with their fun no-BS approach to snowboarding.  Beyond the company and the names behind it, once you ride the boards you aren&#8217;t disappointed by the little shred company that could. O-matic snowboards was the last stop on Day 2 and located in beautiful Encinitas in Southern California. When I was driving through town I wondered how hard it would be to spot the snowboard offices but it&#8217;s not hard to miss the massive poster that fills the window and with front row parking I found myself soon to walk into O-matic Snowboards. [singlepic id=6693 w=395 h=297 float=] Upon walking into O-matic you get the full tour, almost everything is in sight of the front door which makes it very customer orientated with all eyes on the prize.  I was faced with Jason Kanes and Tanya Otero who would be my tour guides for the afternoon.  The best part was sitting down with both of them and just talking (some off the record so for my ears only) and what&#8217;s coming up for O-matic including possible changes in store for their snowboards.

After listening to Todd Richards on Extreme Scene, I was told about this amazing gem of TodCast&#8217;s on Quiksilver&#8217;s website. What is a TodCast? Well it&#8217;s Todd Richards up close and personal, in this TodCast you get the Todd tour of his garage in California. Here&#8217;s all 3 parts of his garage and you might find yourself watching all 3 in amazement.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[If you get the chance to meet the people behind O-matic or even just check out their catalog, they just radiate with fun and humor.  That fun and humor goes into their boards and making them fun to ride without making it too techy or serious.  From the first time I checked out O-matic I had hopes but you never know, when the insane sales went down on them and people scooped them up like mad&#8230;it was then that the reports came out how people loved their O-matic&#8217;s which helped the word of mouth go even further on the brand.  Since then I&#8217;ve seen them more and more on the mountains. The B.S. (supposedly stands for bowed surface but I love the name) Technology is new on the extr-eco.  The B.S. Technology combines reverse camber with a convex base that lifts the edges off the snow between the contact points while the center of the board remains in contact with the snow.  You might think O-matic used oompa loompas to design this&#8230;but no, it was design robots who created the magic.     O-matic stepped up for the boobs in 09-10 with a B4BC snowboard that really says how much [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Industry Profile: O-matic Co-Owner, Team Manager, Professional Snowboarder, Janitor, Receptionist, and Marketing Director Todd Richards Shay: Tell us a little bit about yourself? Todd: Well I&#8217;m 38 years old, have two kids and live in Encinitas, California. I have been riding snowboards for a living for a hair under 20 years (09 will be my 20 year mark) and co own a snowboard company called O-matic. Shay: What is your job title? Todd: My job title? Hmmm, that&#8217;s a good one. I guess brand direction, team mis-management, cheerleader, art director, gross youtube video finder, etc.Shay: Did your parents question your job choice? Todd: You know they more questioned my life choices. At that point in the sports evolution there was not anyone that was really making a solid living snowboarding. It really was not until I started getting enough money to sustain life without the help of the parental unit that they kind of got off my back and realized it was something that I could do and survive. They didn&#8217;t see it as a job until I was making decent money. Shay: What was your first set up? Todd: Oh, good one. Flight comp-rocket 165. Shay: What is your [&#8230;]]]></description>
