“Flex pattern” means that the stiffness of the runner can vary over its length. “Progressive flex in the trailing runner” means that the runner gets progressively more flexible towards the tail. This gives a smooth ride and enhances handling. It works for skis, and it works for sled runners. Monolithic runners can not provide progressive flex.
