The K2 FL3X Method W masterfully blends ease of use, comfort and performance whether you're shredding the mountain or throwing-down in the terrain park. It sports the iconic FL3X 3-piece construction, complete with a ribbed tongue for ultra-smooth flexing and amazing shock absorption, no matter the conditions - be it icy, powdery, or bumpy. Boasting a flex 70 tongue, it has a really mellow feeling flex, making it your ideal companion as you explore new territories and boost your park skills. The shell design, along with the Infinite Pivot, is a like no 2-piece boot as it never restricts or hampers your flex, reduces shin bang risks and improves control. If you crave more room, its high-volume fit is a generous 102mm last and can even be heat moulded for a custom fit. The Intuition Tongue liner is a breeze to put on or remove, and can be fully heat fitted for the perfect shape for optimum comfort. Plus, it's one of the market's lightest and cosiest liners too. This is the perfect boot for those who play hard but want a forgiving relaxed feel and need a slightly roomier fit.

Overview
Fit
Generally an average feel, but with a slightly more generous forefoot width. Cabrio constructions allows for some flexibility over the height of the instep.
Shell
TPU shell and cuff, Grilamid tongue, mouldable. K2's FL3X 3-piece construction offers a smooth flex with no deformation of the shell, leading to better foot hold, increased control and improved shock absorption. The Method shell provides more internal space than the Original version.
Liner
Intuition Tongue, mouldable. The Intuition Tongue liner’s laminates use multi-layered construction in a traditional tongue liner, designed to provide targeted comfort and performance in a familiar way. 4mm Intuition medium density foam for a solid balance of comfort and performance; 4mm open cell foam for warmth and comfort; 5mm Intuition high density foam for a responsive and efficient energy transfer.
Key Features
Ribbed Tongue
100% Ribbed tongue enables smoother, more natural linear flex from your shin to your toe. The tongue bends like a flexible straw, never bottoming out while providing smooth rebound. No more shin bang!
Shock Absorber Boot Board
A soft rubber layer in the sole of the shell absorbs vibrations, impact and shock for a smooth ride.
Ladder Buckle
The ladder buckle features an intuitive, easy to remember, macro-size adjustment, plus a micro-twist for fine adjustment with a light, easy-to-handle aluminium lever.
