Flex
- Flex Rating: 10/10 (Very Stiff) – K2’s stiffest boot, engineered for expert riders who demand maximum support, power, and precision in every movement.
- Endo™ 2.0 Construction – Urethane-reinforced shell maintains flex, rebound, and structure season after season, ensuring consistent response and longevity.
Lacing System
- Triple BOA® Fit System with H4 Coiler™ and TX3 Laces – Three independent dials allow precision adjustment across upper, lower, and liner zones for a truly customized, locked-in fit.
- Conda™ Heel Retention System – Integrated with the liner BOA®, this internal harness cinches around your ankle to prevent heel lift and maximize control.
Liner
- Intuition® SpaceHeater™ Liner – Heat-reflective, thermo-moldable liner provides unmatched warmth, comfort, and support through K2’s top-tier Intuition® technology.
- Internal J-Bars – Strategically placed supports around the ankle and heel eliminate lift and improve energy transfer to the board.
- 3D Formed Dual Density EVA Footbed – Dual-layer cushioning provides comfort and impact absorption for long freeride days and big landings.
Outsole & Midsole
- Vibram® V5 Outsole – Premium Vibram® rubber compound delivers superior grip, lightweight performance, and durability for backcountry and resort use.

Sizing Advice
- Fit – The K2 Thraxis BOA® fits true to size; if you measure to a size 9, order a size 9 for the most precise and responsive fit possible.
- Snug at First – The Intuition® SpaceHeater™ liner and triple BOA® closure system will feel firm out of the box but will break in after several days of riding, molding perfectly to your foot for maximum support.
- Performance Feel – Delivers a stiff, locked-in feel designed for expert riders who need powerful edge control, stability, and precision at high speeds.
- Do Not Size Up – Sizing up will cause heel lift and compromise response; K2’s liner and Conda™ heel system are built to form precisely to your true measured size.
