G-Summits Vs Phantom Techs
Looking at upgrading from Nepal Cubes to a more technical and slightly warmer boot and considering the La Sportiva G-Summits and the Scarpa Phantom Techs.
I have climbed in the Phantom Techs and appreciated the streamlined exterior and extra space for my toes to stay warm, but felt the laces were annoying and tough to dial in. I have not climbed in the G-Summits, but really like the idea of the Boa system for loosening the boots at belays and allowing for quick sock changes etc.
Any advice on either boot? TIA!
