    Taylor replied to the topic Phantom Slipper in the forum Boots 6 months, 4 weeks ago

    So sweet – I think this boot marks an important point in the evolution of splitboarding equipment.

    It looks fantastic–light, minimalist and engineered for the flex requirements of snowboarding. I too have been on Phantom for several years now, and because their culture of quality is second to none, I expect any product that they release to…[Read more]

    Thanks for posting @raphael.

    And, wow – that’s a big, clean break. I too wonder how many other boots have broken like that.

    I tried adding this information to my earlier thread but, with this site’s glitches, doing so resulted in the entire post being deleted while preventing me from adding it anew. So I am adding a new thread with the new information.

    Here are some links to photos of the Phantom Link Lever mounted to the Scarpa Alien. Phantom does not warranty use…[Read more]

    I would be very interested to see a photo of the break point, recognizing that posting photos on here is a bit difficult.

    Taylor replied to the topic Winterstick Tom Burt? in the forum Splitboards 1 year, 3 months ago

    Mtnsurfr –

    I second Scooby’s advice — spot on, as usual.

    I’m your same height and weight. Very few production boards fit us. I’ve been dealing with this problem ever since I filled in in my mid-20s, 20 years ago, when I went back to riding freeriding boards after years on race boards.

    Going custom is good advice. Instead of trying to fit…[Read more]

    @earnyourturn This is incredible–the trip, and to have filmed it. Thanks for that.

    Taylor started the topic Phantom Link Lever on Scarpa Alien? in the forum Boots 1 year, 6 months ago

    Has anyone tried to install a Phantom Link Lever on a Scarpa Alien boot?

    Given the extreme similarity between the Backland and Alien rear levers this seems viable, but I’m wondering if anyone has actually tried it and with what result.

    Taylor replied to the topic How big is too big in the forum Splitboard Talk Forum 1 year, 12 months ago

    Another outlier at 6’4″ and 225 lbs and a penchant for fast, larger radius turns. My resort quiver ranges from 162 to 195. My split quiver ranges from 173 – 190. Length is important, but there are many other factors that affect how a shape rides too.

    As a very general rule, I won’t go below 170 or so, depending on the shape, because for the…[Read more]

    Hey @permnation – got any non-split gen 1 173s left? I’m looking for one. Hope you’re well. I’ll let ya know if I make it up to your neck of the woods anytime soon. Good southwestern storm cycle setting up now…

    Taylor replied to the topic New Hybrid Soft/Hard Boot [Deeluxe Ground Control] in the forum Boots 2 years, 1 month ago

    Yeah, looks sweet for railing groomers. But for splitting, what snurfer said plus it probably needs a diet.

    Taylor replied to the topic Amplid Milligram in the forum Splitboards 2 years, 1 month ago

    Good stuff, Scooby.

    Man, I’m sorry to hear about the 165. That was a beautiful and shockingly lightweight board. That veneer deters failures is just the snowboard gods reinforcing the idea that style always matters.

    I wouldn’t have thought of it, but it makes sense that ultra light splits are vulnerable to failure in tour mode: That’s when…[Read more]

    Taylor replied to the topic Amplid Milligram in the forum Splitboards 2 years, 2 months ago

    @scooby2 Are those core compression failures typically located underfoot, or near underfoot, where the board is dispersing binding pressure, or throughout? If the former, I wonder if there’s a way to reinforce construction underfoot to reduce potential for failures while retaining weight savings.
