...Liquidation decision next week
By the end of next week a decision could fall over the liquidation of the traditional Tyrolean company. Once he had received the report from the liquidator, he will decide whether or not the company as a "whole, living" could be sold, or must be destroyed, said bankruptcy Judge Hannes Seiser... |
A sad end for this company. Perhaps they should have got the hint when K2 bought the Flexon off them and made a go of it.
Glad I still have my Tankers.

Serious question, doesn't K2 "making a go of it" involve stripping the factory and shipping production out to a Chinese sweat shop?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Indeed a bit of a different story to that being spun recently on sHs by Kneissel UK. Looks like the major shareholder has declined to put in what for him looks like chump change of a few million.
For me a brand that lost its way, may be fondly regarded by some but can't as a punter recall any significant race presence nor exciting freeride skis since the Tanker.

davidof, The Flexon was bought by K2, now rebranded Full Tilt. What makes you think they're made in China????
