DaKine is an outdoor apparel company that definitely has the 'Cool Factor' !  The company specializes  in sportswear and sports equipment for alternative sports. The name of the company comes from the Hawaiian Pidgin word "da kine" (derived from "the kind" or "the best").  The high quality gear is very popular with sports enthusiasts.

Alternative sports are also known as "extreme sports" because of the high action or adventure that is involved.  Extreme sports are also  perceived as being more dangerous and risky than other 'non-extreme' sports.   In many alternative sports there is often a much higher level of speed, height and very often spectacular stunts and competition that is over the top and that involve a high level of physical prowess.  Extreme sports have also come to require their very own highly specialized sports gear and sports apparel that the Dakine Company is well adept at providing to the extreme sports enthusiasts. 

Some of the best known extreme sports are snowboarding, windsurfing, surfing, motocross biking, skiing, kiteboarding,  skateboarding, BMX biking, etc...  Dakine provides awesome gear for each of these and more.

Dakine serves the worldwide market but is based in the United States in Hood River, Oregon.
