false. Just walked down stairs and looked at my brothers 2010(blue and yellow) booters. "Flex index 2"

Might not sell them separately, but they exist.

actually i just looked at my booters and the flex is a 2 and those are last years blue/white ones so unless they made a mistake 2 years in a row you  must be mistaken

thanks man! so much fun shedding with you, collin, and james...best day of skiing ive ever had

***anyways...i have this years booters. the sticker on the tongue says flex index 2, but its a misprint, ive talked to fulltilt, its a flex index of 4. i know they dont sell 2's anymore, so i would be extremely happy if someone would sell me their pair of #2 tongues. i also may be interested in trading my 4's for someones 2's if it came down to that. mine are in insanely good condition, so dont be afraid of the condition of my tongues, they have only have around 7 days on them, so shoot me a pm if you would like to work out a trade. if people interested in a trade, i can post up some pics if they would like. thanks again

actually, you're wrong, the booters from last year have #2 tounges, this years have #4 tounges but had a #2  sticker on them.

i have last years booters and they really are #2 flex.

free bump i guess

you talked to FT about this years line, last years are not the same.

this year 2=4

last year 2=2

end discussion.

by the way. i talked to full tilt. this years booters have the same flex as last years hot doggers. the booter of 09/10 is a 4, the booter or 08/09 is a 2. end discusion on that

beware of buying the full tilt classic shell tongues for your booters. what you need is the new FTI tongues. they have fewer corrugations i think, and they attatch differently.

also I compared the 2011 booters FTI #4 flex tongue directly with a 2011 classic #6 tongue, and i swear the classic one was way softer. idk why that would be, but it makes no sense.

and they dont make a #2 flex for the new wide boots either.

the real problem is that you're 110 lbs with size 27.5 feet. i was in that same boat two years ago and it sucks. basically the bigger the boot, the stiffer its going to be. including full tilts. the way i solved it was by cramming my size 9 foot in a smaller boot (25.5) and gaining 20lbs.


good luck man.
