While skiing in BC last week, I heard that K2 has bought the flexon from kneissel and will put out a new flexon next year with improved buckles. Anyone heard anything about this?

I've heard the rumour too, but no confirmation. I'm pretty sure they never shipped out of Europe at all this year though.
It's not so much the model year, it's the high mileage or meterage to keep the youth of Canada happy

That wouldn't suprise me at all, I had heard from our k2 rep that they were looking to buy a boot line, leaving the name undisclosed.

Heard the rumor as well, but can't confirm, never really been a big fan, but Dalbello's boot that is an updated flexon, looked much better than existing Flexons.
Skiing, where my mind is even if my body isn't.

I know Seth Morrison was pushing for K2 to buy the boot. And Mike Gutt did acknowledge they were thinking about it.
the possibilities...unless you have wide feet!

Sweet. Two Flexons/Flexon combos. I wonder if the K2 boots will have a stiffer tongue that will fit on my Flexons. Hmmmm

I found my sz 28 Flexon Ts on Ebay brand new for a goood price. The only problem was that they were from Germany and payment was a pain but they were still quite cheap. Try doing an international Ebay search...

Don't be mislead...K2 has had their own boot line before. I've got a pair to prove it.
