26/27 · 25/26 · 24/25 · 23/24 season review
The flex sits right on the line between medium and medium-stiff, with response matched to it, so it drives almost any board without overpowering it. Even an E-width foot didn't feel tight on day one, and the early pressure on the instep and Achilles went away within a few days.
The TLS lacing makes getting in and out very fast with no heel lift, and if the speed lace snaps you can replace it with a normal lace.
