People who are saying that K2 Skis is going to make a boot like FT are wrong. For one, K2 skis does not own full tilt, it's K2 Sports that owns FT, Line, K2, and others... so you're not going to see a rebranded FT boot.

Im going for them targeting more of the backcountry AT market which is where it seems they are going with their skis...Although I am expecting some mainstream styles like salomon
not true actually. K2 skis/snowboards, full tilt, line, etc. is owned by k2 sports, which is owned by a whole other parent corporation that also owns volkl and a shit ton of other outdoor companies.
almost. k2, inc. owns k2 skis, line, marker, and volkl, etc. k2, inc. is owned by the Jarden Corporation, which like you said is a conglomerate that owns a ton of companies. Jarden bought k2 and all of its subsidiaries in '07 for $1.2 billion.
interesting stuff haha. volkl, line, k2 skis are all competitors but in reality, they aren't...
Spoiler alert: K2 park boot. Take a K2 snowboard boot and mold plastic around the lower boot and up the calf so that it looks like an oversized version of the K2 fatty inline skate but with a ski boot sole. Soft boot/hard boot hybrid that will only work for "park" applications. Speculation over. Lol
