I havent heard very good things about the Line bindings, but ive never used them so I don't know. And all I can say about the Skogens is they look sick :)

If they came in, say, 183, they'd be perfect.

1) There will be no Skogen next year for obvious reasons
2) They come in a 178
3) Problems with reactor bindings are blown out of proportion like everything else on this site.

^if i were you, i would get the line binding but i would have a certified line tecnician set them up for you, unlike what pretty much everyone else on this site has done.
if you decide against that, get look p12's

I ride the 176 w/ R12 and I am 215lbs. All who hate on the Reactor binding w/o ever trying STFU b/c you have no idea what you are talking about. I am very pleased with them thus far. On Sunday, I ripped in like 15in of pow and they shredded. Due to their stiff nature, they hold an edge very well on hard pack. All and all, I would def recommend them to you with the R10 or R12. Lates.

About the line site saying that the Sprangs are stiff, but they might be wrong, they also have the Prophets for being stiff, but theyre really soft...

There are four prophets now and only the 130's are soft. The rest are burly as hell... well the 130 is the burliest one but it is softer. The rest are fairly stiff like the Mothership ti this year.

hahaha 300 good deal? no i walked into my shop today they wanted 300 for the R12, I told them i could get them online for 240 they said they would do the same deal and they would do the mounting for half price to becase i bought from them. so after tax it was at like $260, $280 mounted. not to bad, about the same price as i can get online + getting them mounted(extra $40 norm), but there is no wait, they are now just sitting in my room waiting. can't wait to get them on my gold Cronics.

1080plp, we were talkin about how 300 is a good deal for the skogens not the reactors. and you know that all they need to really do is set the binding to the size of ur boot and test it right? you can just screw the bindings in urself. so u didnt really jip ur store...

if a shop doesn't set up the bindings the first time it voids the warrenty, they have to test them and make sure everything is set right, not saying that it wouldn't be easy to do most of it yourself.... but with Gold cronics and R12's i kind of want a warrenty for a couple of years first. scdond i didn't say i riped off my shop i just nagotiated a better price and i don't have to wait for them like i would if i ordered them online, also after josh said that i relized that the work was very minimal and i doubt the person i bring them in to will even make me pay, but even if they do charge me the $20 for mounting services who cares its fucking $20 and they did me a service.
