Evolved from "01" to "02" in pursuit of superior gliding performance
After four years of research and development, the Phaenom debuted in the 2024-25 season. Now entering its third season in 2026-27, the Phaenom continues to be developed in the same two categories as in its debut: "Freeride" and "Freeski." In its first year, it started with four models in each category, and in the second season, the lineup was streamlined, and a model for beginners in freeskiing was added, resulting in a total of seven models. Improvements have been made to comfort, such as how well the boots fit and how easy they are to put on
For the 26-27 season, while maintaining the sustainable design based on repair and recycling and the comfortable fit, the boots have been significantly improved in terms of ease of putting them on and taking them off. Furthermore, the last width has been revised and the materials have been updated to improve operability and durability, resulting in a total of five models. As a modern new style boot, it has reached a complete form

102mm across all models to 100mm. This change maintains comfort while achieving a "performance fit" that balances more precise control and a secure hold. Another key point is that by bringing the last width closer to the industry standard, it has become easier for users to choose the right boots.

, significantly improving ease of putting on and taking off. The high-instep design also eliminates the pressure around the instep that many skiers experience. Furthermore, the liner uses a low-friction material, achieving both smooth entry and comfort.
The new TPU+ material, unaffected by outside temperature,
is incorporated into the Flex 130 model, the top-of-the-line model in each category. This new material, "TPU+", is less susceptible to temperature changes. It provides consistent flexibility from the depths of winter to early spring, maintaining a consistently fine feel.
The newly developed liner, which sharpens the characteristics of each category,
has been updated with a 3mm thick self-molding foam that "bends to your feet after just one day of skiing." Each category has an optimal, dedicated design. The freeride-oriented "fr02" has a flex zone on the back that expands the range of motion, supporting natural ankle movement when climbing. The highly breathable mesh material also reduces uncomfortable stuffiness.
On the other hand, the freeski-oriented "fs02" adopts a thick structure that prioritizes shock absorption and cushioning. It mitigates the strong impact of harsh landings and dramatically reduces the burden on the feet.
Note that the shell and liner are sold separately, allowing for free combinations to suit your foot shape and skiing style.
