Hello All,
Mele Kalikimaka, I’m on vacation in Hawaii. “Vacation” still means, running things as well as I can from my laptop.
A big thanks Sam “The Man” our neighbor, who’s handling shipping for me while I’m out.
Sam just graduated this December from DigiPen with a CS degree with emphasis in video game development. If anyone in the XOOT community knows of any Rare entry level openings in this field. Sam, would appreciate a heads up. Just reply to this email.
(or, if you’re looking for a similar opening. Reply back and I’ll let you know of any responses.)
I’ll attest Sam is a reliable “Logistics Management Specialist”, as they put things in resume terminology.
– Chris (XOOT’s Founder)
2025 Retrospective

We released 3 new kits this year:
XOOT System with Wacom Cintiq 24 (2025)
XOOT System with Wacom Cintiq Pro 22
XOOT System with XP-Pen Artist 24 Pro 4K Gen2
The web site got an updated look and layout, and we started putting out some better social media posts. Thanks to:
Mohamed (our web guru)
However
I’ve got a big regret!
I started the year saying European distribution was almost here.
Well… the US started a trade war and everything got more complicated.
This has turned into a multi-level problem that’s difficult for a company as small as XOOT. We’re still working on it and optiistic some time next year we’ll have distribution in other parts of the world.
Happy New Years to everyone!
Wishing you all a great 2026!
