dude your shop should be able to take care of you. maybe they won't replace it with a new reactor but at least ask for store credit or something of = value. email line if you have any trouble.

sadly its true, i beleive alot of people that carry line knew it very early in the season, but neglected to tell people who would be buying there product to still make bank off the binding...i think line or the shops should refund anyone who purchased the bindings

now that i have thought about it, i think line, being so innovative and progressive in the ski industry should stand behind there saying of WANTING TO BE THERE FOR EACH AND EVERY SKIER, thats why they dropped there pro team right? now that they drop there binding, it hurts us who purchased it, and now i think they should help us out in some way.

Was it just not selling or was the design as poor as everyone says it is?

The design was great, I believe it was a money thing. It wasn't profitable.

They will not send you a pair of reactors. They discontinued the reactors and probably the best youll get is a rplacement pair of bindings from whatever shop you bought them from. Reactors as of now are a wicked shitty binding. Line will probably do some more testing and try to fix the problem but the reactors are incredibly shitty and the shop i bought them from told me that 3 out of 5 of the reactors they sold came back destroyed, and you have to keep in mind that this was 2-3 weeks after the season first started. I had the reactors for less than a week and a half and they busted for absolutely no reason. i would not recommend reactors to anyone until next seasons model or later at least.

they discontinued them...you wont see them next season, what sucks is that most shops wont let you trade in bindings because they would be taking a loss

does this mean that they will no longer be puting the binding mounts in their new skis. If so WTF thats the best part of the reactor being able to go from ski to ski and the reason i bought them. damn

That sucks, Line really had a good concept with the bindings, they just are too small of a company to keep loosing money off of it. They just need to make the binding lighter and stronger which is pretty hard to do.
