Your NS name is also the name of the flattest province in Canada. That, and you don't know shit about bindings, so eat a bag of dicks. The Reactor is fine, the idiots who set yours up probably aren't.

Yeah my friend bought them and he said he had to send them back twice for repair. All that fucking hype over a binder that sucks balls. I also heard it has a mind of it's own and likes to release at it's disposal.

All I do every day is kill kill kill. When am I going to get some shredding in.

I KNOW that the line reactors are horrible binding my freind got his free from a line rep and we WATCHED him install them he did it perfectly but the FIRST day we were out one of the screws stripped and fell out and they would release at random times he moved to the look freeride binding i duno which one WHICH HE LOVES and to tell u the truth most of lines products.........(besides chronics and Pollards) are pretty low quality

the only problems ive had with mine si not having enough locktite on the screws, plus they need a little higher din , and i love being able to swith the binding size around so that i dont need to get remounted

is this news to you?

This is stupid... he's now the army's greatest asset. Why would they assign him to Antarctica? WE'RE NOT FIGHTING PENGUINS HERE, PEOPLE. They should have him skiing lines in the dunes, picking off terrorists with his homing poles as they gape at his massize switch 9 over Abdul's Gap. - JDMay on T$

^word, exactly what i was gonna say.
if you set them up yourself, they break. Dont hate them until you ride them, people who say "i heard... so dont buy them!they suck!" are followers and deserve to die.

My sig gets fucked up if i put it in, so i just dont have one.

They are the worse binding ever. seriously i would rather use duct tape, probably hold up better anyway. I was using my friend on like a 30 foot table and i did a 180 and one of them just popped off, for no reason. Then i was like you can have em back and then he broke em a week later, they lasted him like 10 times on the hill, dont bother defending this binding, its a great company, but a piece of shit binding.

It's people who only ski 10-20 days a season who complain about breaking the things, oddly enough. For the most part, at least.

Fuck all of you who hate line just cause they're having a hard time with the binding. I want to see you make your own "kick ass" binding and not have it shit out on you.

the reactors are fine...i really dont know where everyone is getting this broken shit..ive ridden them at least 10 times and the only thing that happened was the brakes bent when i ejected going switch..but that happens to all brakes...the only thing is that you have to retighten the screws all the time...and they have randomly ejected on me...but they are pretty bomb proof compared to my old s912s

^You're a fucking moron. The weight difference between the Reactor and a Look/Rossi binding isn't noticeable, and while a Salomon S912 is undoubtedly lighter, it's not better. The only reason you think they're heavy is because the binding is on a plate.

If I had line skis, I would definately have the reactors.
They're good bindings, and they're only going to get better.

not to mention having binding inserts on skis is probably one of the best ideas floating around the industry right now.
