I know there have been countless discussions on them and i have followed most of them and am planning to buy them and put them on the invaders when they come out. I apoligize for starting a new reacotr thread...just looking for the overall vibe...

if set up properly i blieve them to be a very stable binder... i ride the R12s on my Chrons... i couldn't be happier with the performance. next years reactors are constructed in a diff way the design is the same but the material is stronger.. and they come in camo which is neat. i have pics of the camo binder in my uploaded media in my profile.

if you have to ask then they'll probably be fine.




My weiner is probably harder than yours.

We live a life of luxury. While we worry about having the newest, coolest gear, millions of people are wishing they had food or shelter, or some place to sleep. While we try to have fun, they try to survive. We are incredably fortunate. THINK ABOUT IT.

i haven't skiied them, but i think the concept behind them is great. people do tend to bitch a lot about them breaking though. maybe you should wait for next years new and improved team reactors-

I too haven't skied them, I just can't get over their weight. It is a great idea but until it's tried-and-true technology, I'll stick with what I know.

lets see... they are heavy: all the weight is under your feet in a reduced swing weight.. area.. than salomons or looks etc...

brakes, they just need longer brakes and they will be fine.

i love mine. don't knock it 'till you've been on them more than 2 hours. one demo isn't enough to bag an entire brand.

Got 'em and love 'em. I switch them between a set of '03-'04 1260's and a set of '04-'05 Pollards. Only complaint is the brakes, especially the wide ones. Lets just say if you catch one while riding or landing switch your gonna be bending them back to some sort of normalcy later. I'd pick up a pair of next years though, this new construction sounds like its a bit stronger (Lord knows these things scratch easily). And besides once you see how the base pivots to assist a safe release when the toe or heel turn you'll realize why its such a safe binding.

if you want to replace your brakes all the time..get these...otherwise they are good on any line ski because they balance out the weight. yesterday i threw a 5 over 25ft and when i landed..my binding started to rattle and let loose..then the brake broke
