Freestyle skiers and racers of the 1980s and 1990s developed an affection for a boot brand called Raichle and in particular its pro model with the ribbed Flexon tongue. They liked the way it flexed but held its shape. It's been resurrected by the Full Tilt boot company in a model called the Bumble Bee. See www.fulltilt.com -- JD
