DPS's OFFICIAL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
"Phantom is a permanent, one-time application base-coating that forever eliminates the need for waxing skis and snowboards. It's a disruptive, truly innovative solution that ushers in a new era in Snowsports.
"Phantom's patent-pending polymer technology offers ultimate convenience combined with great glide performance that never wanes across all snow temperatures, and for the life of a ski or board's use.
"Phantom eliminates the damage traditional wax does to watersheds, along with the health risks for people applying it.
"Phantom can be applied to any new or used ski or snowboard at any point in a board's life cycle, at a price that quickly delivers strong value.
"Ski wax has been around since the 1850s and has always been assumed to be a necessary piece of the snow sliding puzzle. Its development over time has been dominated by the one-run world of ski racing and less by the needs of the everyday skier or snowboarder.
"In the 1980s, again driven by racing’s desire for speed in small doses, dangerous perfluorocarbons and other toxic chemical additives were included in wax recipes to broaden performance and increase operational temperature ranges. Wax still depends on the need for the inconvenient and constant reapplication of chemical functional groups that cause widespread damage to the environment and those applying it.
"With a single and permanent application, you get ultimate convenience (no waxing required), elite-level performance, substantial cost savings (no regular waxings), increased base durability, while saying no to the harmful chemical waste found in traditional ski and snowboard waxes.
"Unless you are constantly waxing with the correct temperature specific waxes, Phantom is faster across all conditions over time because its performance is consistent: you never suffer the glide degradation that happens when wax starts to quickly wear away.
