I still love my Dynos. However, if I were buying a completely new setup I’d probably buy the phantoms. It’s more of a complete package. That being said, my touring gear is now collecting dust here in sunny SoCal. I miss naturally snow covered mountains.

No sorry. I sold them a few years ago.

Edit to add Mr. Chomps crampons

Where is the salivate emoji when you need it?

Looks like some cool views. So the question is, would you go back? Was it worth it? And what board you riding in the bottom picture? I’ve coveted me a fish-tail board for a minute.

I totally get what you mean @Unruly Baker, I’m in the same boat. Thus the predominantly nocturnal nature of my adventures.

Doug, your stashes always look so pristine and serene. Love it.

Thanks everyone. I think I’m convinced that they probably aren’t needed as long as they are locked out .

Hey Doug, what length V-tail are you riding.

This weekend I had to travel back to the homeland for a funeral (Colorado). It was a great opportunity to tour in my home state for my first time and get out for some fresh air with family doing something my late grandmother would definitely approve of. So yeah this is not about Wasatch conditions but…[Read more]

Yeah you might end up removing plastic. Look at the first couple of posts in this thread for ideas on that. Or you can change the whole forward lean plate like Marc did. I did cut away plastic on mine.

@Neni – I don’t know if that is necessarily a male/female thing. Based on the color scheme of your boot it looks like you got the women’s version. I’m sure the boot designers accounted for the differences in anatomy. But having not seen them side by side and can’t say definitively.

However, your experience sounds very similar to my first time on…[Read more]

Yeah mar123, the Aliens my be a better boot. However, if you are looking to save money on a hardboot experiment, which is what I’ve been calling my experience, Aliens will be harder to find. TLT6s keep popping up on KSL all the time. I saw 4 pairs in different sizes just the other day for around $200. Makes sense, especially if you are going to…[Read more]

Marc – I updated my post above to include that information. I had the buckle completely open, I haven’t tried the trick you are talking about yet. I wouldn’t go hog wild with Phantom’s mod suggestions all at once though. You may regret it depending on how much flex you like and how big you are. That being said, some of the mods they suggest are…[Read more]
