We were little but strong until greed walked in the door. I walked away a few years ago with a fight, but that fight has come to an end. I am no longer owner of what Omatic used to be. After a year of Lawyers trying to settle, the fight is over. Good did not win and now Omatic is for Sale. Omatic is owned by an attorney who knows nothing about what true snowboarding is and a lot of good people who believed in Omatic where taken advantage of. . . <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Strangely, Tara didn&#8217;t mention <strong>Todd Richards<\/strong> or <strong>Jason Kanes<\/strong>.
