What is a good shop to get the Reactors mounted in the vancouver/whistler area. It seems like these bindings are one of the best if mounted properly, and by far the worse when done inproperly.

it seems as tho you have been misinforned, you should run as fast as you can AWAY from the reactors.....one monstrous head ache, some may be AWSOME, but their rep si not vewry reliable, and thats not what i would want holding me to my skis

hmmm mounting reactors.......if can be extremely difficult. You many need all of the following











screwdriver









and if you are having them mounted on non-lines....then your just wasting you time, which IMO you're doing anyway dealing with recraptors

have you guys been on these? i doubt it. i havent had much time with um, but from what i have gathered, he is right. you do um yourself, they break. a tech does um, they are sweet. just go to a line dealer.

what is the point of the bindings if everytime you need to change the binding from ski to ski if you have to go to a ski tech........

From what I read last winter the reactors have some extra adjustments for getting them to wrap around boots nice and tight, as well as some wacky DIN stuff because of the pivot. Get a tech for that.

Screwing them onto a ski should not be an issue.

That is when the ski is adlusted properly. When you first get it, you are supposed to get them mounted buy a line certified dealer and then you can monkey with them and put them on different sets of skis.

Damn it, I know mounting them is easy, but I want to know where in BC a good store is to fit the binding to my boot. Anyone have them done in the van city/whistler area with good results?

i've seen several pairs of those things literally explode off a kid's skis. and they were mounted by a certified shop tech too, so that's not the issue.

This is directed to Smuck, but if my reactors break, and I buy them from comor and get them adjusted there also, would I just get another pair on the spot or would I have to wait until I get them back on warrenty.

Everyone is always pissing on the reactors. I have a pair for three sets of Line skis and have loaded 110 days on them and plan to use them next year.

Hey. I even set them myself to my new boots halfway through the season. (went for smaller boots) wow. no issues. Then again maybe I am the luckiest person alive.

look got rid of the rear pivot so they are comparable to.........markers? but with a slightly better heel break. and if i hear anyone say get dead bolts over reactors i will fling poo at you! those things are supposed to be death traps. you dont ever pop out. one of the 4FRNT riders COMPLETELY enialated his knee on them (he might not be able to ski competitivley ever again or so I hear). I dont know if i should say his name or if you all already know who it is.
