softbootsurfer Posted October 20, 2020 Report Share Posted October 20, 2020 Question, I do not want to go through the Hot Wax thing again...I did that when I had a ski touring set up and did some Ski racing long ago...I have bought a new Splitboard set up to get me where I need to go if Milk gets Covid crazy this season...I have some exceptional backcountry friends who have said, Bob ! just do the Phantom treatment, apply Skins and enjoy...no problem getting at least a season minimum result without applying anymore wax at all...anyone here have used this product and have a review of how it works? Thank for any input... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexJ Posted October 22, 2020 Report Share Posted October 22, 2020 I had the treatment done on all my boards last year. It was OK, but I had to still wax. For my powder/non carving board it was fine or worked well. Anything I carved on burned away and still needed to be regularly waxed. I would not recommend for a carving application. So for a splitboard application it will work fine. The treatment seemed to work fine in all conditions. Hot/Cold, wet snow or dry snow. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
softbootsurfer Posted October 23, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2020 Thank You Alex, this is confirmed by some others I know here as well...for the Split? Fine for Carving not so much... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svr Posted October 23, 2020 Report Share Posted October 23, 2020 @softbootsurferI would not recommend it for your split...the application/chemical will not react well with your skin glue decreasing your skin effectiveness...also of note is that in my experience with the application, p-tex base repairs did not hold to the treated base, so I would not recommend using it.
