OXS came about mid ’08 in a small town by the name of Omaha (AKA Omax), which is roughly an hour north of Auckland, after it was recognized that New Zealand was serverly lacking in any form of decent flatland skimboards. Sam Price took this upon himself to solve this issue before the following Summer arrived. Summer ’08/’09 arrived with a bang and flatland skimming in NZ with OXS on board (no pun intended…) now looks set to be the fastest growing sport for youngsters around the country!
With the continued progression of the sport here and OXS’ intention to be at the forefront of flatland in NZ, things look set to grow at an alarming rate. On any given day, you can witness the rail riding antics of the Omax riders with pushing the limits their goal!
With OXS only just being born in mid ’08, it’s already making noises around the globe and with the level of commitment shown by Price, it’s not hard to see why! The boards have come along way since the beginning and are performing above expectations. Keep an eye out for further progression and products.
