they're kinda like a reactor/deadbolt crossbreed

they look just like the deadbolt, but you can mount a plate to multiple skis and just detach the binding from one and put it on another

so, you could get deadbolts, and mount them to all of your skis with just the plates and only need 1 pair of bindings?

slider plates just 240g, not sure how much the freedom plate was, or what part of the reactor weighed a lot

if its anything like the vist demo plate.. it sucks. You gotta crank the hell out of the fwd pressure to even keep it attached to your feet, b/c there is so much 'play' in the connection of the plate and the binding.

This may come in handy if it really works because nobody had the fucking jig to mount my deadbolts

ya no one had a jig for mine either but the shop got one fedexed to them in a day so it was all good.

and yeah that plate would work with the deadbolt because deadbolt = amplid = vist = best binding ever.

vist bindings fucking suck. they are all the same, and that demo platte, although a good idea, hasn't changed since they came out with it, and it sucked then too.

If by 'pieces of shit' you mean the most celebrated race -stock binding ever created, one that the companies tried to do away with in favor of streamlining their product and couldn't make it last more than one year because the demand for the old design was so high...yes.
