$200 is always to much to pay for bindings. I'll sell you brand new p10 demo's.

They are the future...buy them
If no one buys them then there is no way for them to put more money into R&D to make em even better

^ word. If you have the discount and an extra long warranty why wouldn't you support the future of bindings.

so basically you're saying to buy bad products so the company gets more money to improve the product? i'm not too keen on that reasoning. my ski shop got quite a few pairs of of last years reactors with snapped heel and toe pieces, mostly toe. line is really good about their warranties though.
i've ridden my friends chronics with the reactors and i like them, they felt really secure, you just gotta make sure to tighten them. the weight factor didn't even matter to me. i've skied salomon, look, and marker bindings and i really don't notice that big of a difference between different weight bindings.

those bindings are really heavy but with how light the skis are it cancels out. i have a pair of dynastar candides with salmon s810 ti bingsn on them and the lines are a little heavier.

The weight of the binding doesnt matter. It is all underfoot so it does nothing to your riding. The only way they are to heavy is carrying them from the car to the lift. And mine broke once last year and brand new ones a day later so the warranty is great. They are a really good idea and work. And if you have multiple pairs of lines then they are perfect.

buy them dude, they are siick bindings, but people fuck around with them when they dont know how to change them around with weight and sizing and shit...and break em...i would buy em if i were u....plus...u are giving money back to line so that they can fund R&D to make them better.

all the people on this site need to buy a pair of Reactor 10 or 12 and get them set by a PROFESSIONAL, then rock them for a whole season and see how they hold up. Too many dumbasses think they can set the reactors up by themselves and then they are not properly adjusted resulting in a breakage

no, i'm not saying that at all. whenver i get new skis i'm definately looking at the reactors, especially if i'd get lines. and you may have missed where i talked about riding them, so i'm not just going by what i hear on NS.
i just don't think that you should tell somebody to buy something so that the company will have more money to make the product better.
