Biflex

/ˈbaɪflɛks/ adjective

Definition

Able to bend or flex in two directions; capable of bending with two separate curves.

Etymology

From Latin 'bi-' (two) plus 'flectere' (to bend). The term describes structures or materials with dual flexibility or curvature capability.

Kelly Says

Modern yoga mats and certain plastics are 'biflex'—they can fold in different directions without cracking, which is why they're better than old stiff materials that could only bend one way.
