- Raichle_Flexon abstract "The Flexon was a downhill ski boot introduced by Raichle in the winter of 1980/81. Based on designs by Sven Coomer, Al Gross and Erik Giese, the Flexon used a unique system to control forward flex in a predictable way, as well as making the boot more comfortable and easier to put on and remove. The basic layout was, and is, generally referred to as a "three-piece" design -- three-piece boots preceding the Flexon included the Henke Strato, Nordica Comp 3 and a dozen other designs from Italian bootmakers.The Flexon was a major success on the pro circuit in the 1980s and 90s, especially among freestyle and mogul skiers looking for better performance and less shin bruising. A series of business mis-steps led to Raichle's demise in 1999, and the Flexon along with it. It remained so popular that the Flexon lived on through a vibrant aftermarket network and online auctions, notably the large collection maintained by free skier Seth Morrison.When Dalbello, a Raichle subcontractor, re-introduced the three-piece design in 2004 as their "Cabrio" line, the market for the original Flexon was inadvertently re-created. K2 Sports had already purchased the original Flexon moulds, but were late to bring them to market. These have since been released under the new Full Tilt brand. Roxa, the Italian boot maker who produces Flexon for K2, also sells the boot under their own name. Numerous companies are now producing three-piece designs.".
