Phalanx?
 
What happened to Phalanx? Are they done?
Haven't heard anything about them recently. Just curious.

Scott, unfortunately we had to shut things down a couple of months ago. We gave it everything we had collectively, but sometimes things just dont work out. Kind of bummed, we were really stoked on the product we had lined up to drop this year. Ricky is still riding a Phalanx CW, and he still has yet to break one. Erich builds one hell of a product!

Yeah was waaaayyyyy too bad. Great bunch of guys between Ray, Joe and the rest.

Thanks man! We truly appreciate your kind words and support. Hope your Phalanx gear is still treating you well! :)

Joe do you have any more of those vests??? I saw one in a vid somewhere and want one haha

andy_nintzel 08-07-2013 6:44 AM

I was wondering why I saw a few clips of Ricky G riding Hyeperlite gear.

My last two boards were a Company Recruit, and a Phalanx. Both have been the best quality boards I have ever been on. Sad to see them not make it....

My rope is a phalanx! It's pretty awesome! The stickers will remain on my snowboard helmet, lol.

If you've still got my number shoot me a text!

tampawake 08-08-2013 10:40 AM

Yeah great stuff. I got two ropes and handles two zip up vest a medium and large. Next was gonna be a board but oh well. I like supporting up starts and new stuff. Not to mention customer service was phenomenal!!!

Joe was very helpful last year in getting me on to a Phalanx board. It is too bad that they had to shut down. In any case, I have a CW 385 (138.5) I would sell or trade for another board if anyone is interested. Rode it behind boat for a year and decided to go with something bigger (142) so I am interested in selling or trading for a cable board.

rayatrogue 08-08-2013 7:40 PM

Guys thanks for the kind words, it was a sad day when I found out our investor was pulling the plug on us and there wasn't too much I could do to save the brand. I felt We we're really on the cusp to have a solid year this year.
I have 2 CW boards (138 & 142) I'd sell if any one is interested PM me. I also have some never release Company wake boots left in stock that would match up nicely with the CW.

Side note I'm still involved in wakesports with Agenda Surf and I am currently working on launching a wakesurf board line called Vessel. as well.

Last year during the company's end of summer clearance sale my brother and I picked up "Vertex CGA" vests. Just wanted to show some love and say that we could not be happier. Such a wonderful product. I know somebody already brought it up but really if anyone has a chance to pick one up do it!

tampawake 08-09-2013 6:05 AM

Ray is a great guy so any of you folk that need surf stuff go get it and support them. It will be impeccable products for sure. I am looking forward seeing these new surf boards!

jburbo 08-09-2013 8:07 AM

Stoked to see that you guys were pumped about what we were doing with Phalanx! Brett,John,Mark,Vinny,Spencer,Riley, you guys rock. Your support means a lot!

And Mark is right on, Ray really knows his stuff, whether its designing boards and boots or softgoods. If you are looking for surf gear check out Agenda, Ray is bringing his A+ game to all those products as well!! The lineup of Vessel wakesurfers is going to be sick!

Again, cant say thanks enough to everyone that supported Phalanx!

Wait, so I'm a little confused, what happened? Why did they go out of business? Same story as co.?
