Does anyone know the colors of the full tilt tongues? Like what flex is the orange one, etc.? Thanks.

depends on the year, but this years (2010s) are:
White and Yellow = #4
Brown, Green and Red = #6
Black = #8
Black = #10 (yes there are two different blacks)
Orange = #9 (Pro Flex - this is what most pros use)

last year they did - so I'm sure you can still get it if you ordered it from them (which you have to do through your shop), but they don't have it on any of their boots this year so I don't know if they're making it anymore.

well i got the 2009/2010 booters and on the tongue theres a sticker on it that says "Flex Index: 2" not really sure why, it should be a 4, but its cool cause i would rather have it softer. i think they screwed mine up? if anyone could check their 2009/2010 booter tongue and pm back what their sticker said should be great. thanks

yeah, it should be a #4, don't know why you got a #2, maybe it's just the wrong sticker - what is the embossed number? (the one that's permanently on the tongue)

I have the 2010 booter and it has the flex index #2 sticker as well. It's not just a coincidence.

they must've changed it after the first batch shipped cause it says #4 on the site and the booters at the shop near me got #4s - but the #4 is still really soft so I don't think it matters much - I couldn't really tell the difference when I tried on the #4s on my booters.

it says "MB 26 . 27.5"

27.5 is my boot size by the way. and it doesnt really matter too much, i was scared they'd be too stiff, but that problem is solved. and if it turns out its just a wrong sticker, that okay too cause a flex 4 would work.

Why don't they sell the #9 flex tongue?

I thought they labeled it on the tongue, but I guess they don't (I just looked at mine and it's not labeled). I'm guessing the first batch was #2s and then they changed it to #4s.

I found some raichles at a thrift store for 10$..see if you can do that if you don't feel like spending 60 on a tongue...the tongue will fit your full tilts, its way cheaper and you can find some sick colors, and you get all the other spare parts.

ive got a friend with the new booters, the tongue is a #2 and another with the new doggers and the tongue is a #4, which are totally different to the guide on the site...

I talked to a full tilt rep and it was just a sticker misprint. Also, 8 flex and 10 flex tongues are available in orange if you special order them from your local shop. 8 and 10 are available in black from the website.
