Quality - decreased!
I fited the New Track 325 and the New Track 700 a week ago.
First: Track 700 was the softer boot then Track 325. At Walk-Position Track 325 was softer then Track 700 (other shell-principle). Shell's are comming from Hungary.
Second: all liners are now "Made in China" and the used material was as cheap as I had seen it a view years ago on snowboard softboots in a supermarked! The fiting wasn't as comfy like I knowed it from the HPD-Liners from the red Raichle 325-ties ("Made in Switzerland")! But they are now very much lighter (I think: cause missing of good old caoutchouc-parts inside the liner).
The new buckles are not ready to ride like with loose straps e.g. for freeriding in powder-snow, like on older SB-boots! Uppermost strap/buckle was to long for my legs and to adjust this, I need to open an prepared hole with a drilling-machine to adjust the buckle position. The buckels are now the same (type and colour) on both type of boots (red colours are not matching at the Track 700).
But one thing is inceased! what? Price!
(Track 325: Euro 330.- -> 340.-)
(Track 700: Euro 370.- -> 400.-)

Gliding on Snowboards,
like Pogo, Kessler, Virus, Hot, Nidecker and others,
from 151 up to 183 cm and 14 to 27.4 cm width,
covering any kind of shapes with
any kind of boots and bindings.

I am not sure and can't share your opinion
First I don't think the T-liners are made out of cheap materials. I can feel that the new liners are much more comfortable to my feet as my former T-liners. They are softer and I have the feeling they are more and easier forming to your feet. I think I can definately say this after I have been snowboarding with these boot.Schneewurm wrote:Quality - decreased!

And what about that freeriding. This is very dangerous: riding with your buckles NOT CLOSED or LOOSENED. Not very smart I think if you do this. Or if you want to get hurt, than it's smart
I adjusted my buckles too, but only made a hole with a screwdriver,
10 seconds per boot and I was ready

I talked about the normal liners not the Thermoflex-Liners!
Freeriding: Buckles of straps are closed, but a kind of loose fit (only upper straps), never had problems and feeling is great!
