Full Tilt boots might look familiar. K2 bought the molds for the venerable Raichle Flexon Comp, but not the name. The Flexon has been a cult boot for many years. Bill Johnson won the US’s first Olympic downhill gold medal at Sarajevo in the Flexon. Pros like Seth Morrison have been hording shells and parts in fear of switching boots. The Full Tilt’s unique three piece shell design gets its signature sweet flex from the ribbed external tongue. These tongues are swappable for stiffer or softer flex, while the heat moldable Intuition liners are warm and take a great impression of the foot. Intuition liners give the FT boots a pretty versatile fit, but it is still a med to low volume boot. The FT’s stance is very neutral and it surprisingly appropriate for modern Freeride skis.

Pro Liners are great replacements for worn, smelly, or just uncomfortable stock liners. They are made by Intuition with a three layer design using 4mm of open cell, 2mm of super soft, and 7mm of high density foam. They have an Aegis Microbe Shield coating to prevent boot stink, and no seams to create pressure points. They are also very light, and quite warm. It takes about 20 minutes or so to heat and mold the liner to your feet. It is a pain free process that works well with most alpine, AT, telemark and snowboard boots.
