Space... snowboarding's final frontier. Nike Snowboarding is preparing to blast pro boarder Danny Kass to the moon, and he’s taking a pair of his signature Double Tongue Zoom Force 1s with him for the ride. The mission: to shatter the record for aerial spins by pulling off a zero-G assisted ‘9000’. Slated for a 2010 release, these spanking silver moon boots feature a retro ‘Kass 82’ space mission badge on the heel, giant flag patches on the tongue and an icy blue translucent outsole revealing a techy space-age inlay. Tune in to Nike Snowboarding's official mini site to follow the mission… there’s some pretty funny video featuring Major Kass as he trains for the mission with trusty sidekick Champ the Chimp (who can resist a chimpanzee in uniform?)
