Yeh, it got discontinued, although if you have a look around, I'm sure you could find a pair of tongues. The main issue with them was that they were just so soft, unless you were very light skier not looking to ski super aggressively they were too soft.

Way to soft for anyone really. I'm surprised they make anything softer then the 6. They are still very soft. Personally I woul like to see the range be 6-12 so it would open the boot up to more aggressive skiers too.

The 6 is way too soft, I can't imagine what a 4 or 2 feels like.

back in the day when Raichle was hot shit, my coach copped a pair. said he really enjoyed them through the season, but on a super super warm day in the spring shredding killy, he was in a deep trough mogul line when his nose of one of his skis sank too much and being the hotdogger he was, had his dins cranked up so he wouldnt eject while killing it.instead, he flexed his Raichles so much that he literally folded them in half and broke his ankle. funny story of how they got the boot off, but anyway, my coach is now probably 150, 5'7" now, so he was probably 160 or so. He was using what is today a 10 flex.
If a toddler decides he gona go slash some moguls and the same thing happens with some 2 flex tongues, those boots are gona go Tanner Hall on his ass.
