Default Flow NXT FX - Opinions

Hi,

Quiet here innit! :-( Where's everyone gone?

Up until a baseplate cracked a couple of years ago I was riding Flow
FL11s.
Forced into an emergency purchase I ended up getting a pair of K2
Cinches
which I guess have been okay, but I suspect are close to a terminal
breakage.
Rather than get into another forced purchase, I'm planning on buying
some
replacements in advance.

I'm looking at Flows again, probably the M11 or NXT FX. It seems like
there
have been some design failures with the NXTs. Has anyone had any
experience
with the 07/08 models?

Cheers.
Iain.

I recently upgraded from an old pair of Amp 5's ('04?) to '06 Flow
Pros. Some minor improvement in the weight department, but the biggest
different for me is that

a) adjustability is improved with the new ratchets
a) the highback doesn't catch the heel of my boot the way it sometimes
did when opening because of small cutout at the base of the highback
b) the highback stays down when open making getting in a lot easier to
get in the binding, whereas it always popped up on the Amp 5s

Here's a link regarding the NXT breakage issue. Seems it's fixed.
