It seems like most of the breaks people have reported were due to mis use of the bindings. Does someone have a guide to how to use them correctly, because the binding sounds rock solid when it is used correctly.

yes, reactors are fucking sick. the proper way to use them is easy, just have a shop set them, you cant set them yourself. you have no clue what to do so dont even bother. take them to jibij or find some other shop close to you. once they are set, you can switch them from ski to ski by just unscrewing hte 4 screws, easy as that

will any shop that does other bindings know how to do it? or is there something different to it that they will need to know about in order to set them right?

if you have any questions, email the Line guys. it is pretty straight forward.

the biggest thing that people forget to do is keep the screws tightened down... think like a snowboard.

and if you are using on them non-line skis, have an experienced shop mount the freedom plate.

id have a shop do it that actually sells the binding....and i totally agree with you. The people that complain about the binding dont set it up right.

well the proper way is too place your hand upon the binding, then as you grasp it, carry it too your garbage to be hauled to your local dump.

^then you're probly shit out of luck. unless you want them to break, i would send them somewhere to get done if there isnt a certified line shop near you. or have the company that you buy the bindings from set them up for you. can you do that? im sure they have line skis there that they can set the toe and heel heights on, and just let them know what boot you have and your sole length. I dont know if they'd be able to do that, but its just a suggestion

reactors suck ass. all the ones at our shop had to be taken back because they didnt test out correctly. not to mention ive seen a sountless number of them break, even when set up by a line rep.
