I’ve been running Phantom on three pair of skis for 3 years now. Is it a fresh application of Hertel? No. But it’s great in my opinion. I had one pair cured at Jackson Hole. The other 2 I did myself. The summer Texas sun cures it very easily and very thoroughly. I don’t have any problems on the flats or cats as has been mentioned. It will stick from a dead stop in really cold snow but as soon as you get moving things loosen right back up. It has saved me countless hours on the bench. This next application will make the 4th pair in my quiver with Phantom. Just waiting for the skis to ship.
