there is some good in these, look at the shape of th spatulas. i think they are good. else then that. what the fuck is this ?
i like the classes
CLASS ONE is snow covered terrain from moderate (Black Diamond) to near vertical steepness. These trails have natural obstacles (trees, logs, rocks, etc.).
CLASS TWO is steep natural terrain that has bare vertical walls or ice falls that require jumping. Powder skiing rarely exists on these trails. You usually have to go off trail or hike up.
Phantom Skis are dual snow boards, designed for Class One or Two terrains.
and what does a centered base do ?shut up and ski

other cool quotes from the site
Ask the person riding up the lift with you and he will agree that the backcountry trails are icy.
Phantom Skis were designed by a Trail Cutter who wanted to ski the woods without having to cut trails
With up to thirty feet of snow a month, New England has some of the best powder skiing in the world.
Phantom skis are designed for advanced boarders/skiers that have reached their peak on the trails and are ready to experience the power and freedom of the back countryshut up and ski

The goal in making these skis is to be able to ski anywhere without the cutting down of trees or clearing of trails. Phantom Skis were designed in the Northeast for skiing steep natural terrain in the backcountry trees of this rugged region.With up to thirty feet of snow a month, New England has some of the best powder skiing in the world.

... Which must be why they include pics of the Alps and Himalaya as background. Heh.

Man, talk about a radical sidecut.
30 feet of snow= 360 inches. In MONTH? yeah, right. Maybe it happenned once."There is a hell of a huge difference between skiing as a sport- or even as a lifestyle- and skiing as an industry"

That's the new marketing ploy for next season.
