Baller skialex Posted July 26, 2018 Baller Share Posted July 26, 2018 I wouldn’t want my release jammed between front and rear shell. The rear shell looks like it touches the arms of the release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller condorpilot Posted July 26, 2018 Baller Share Posted July 26, 2018 Logo on the plates says "Reflex" by the looks of things. So I think a fair guess is Reflex. Looks like black cuff front and R type rear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller BraceMaker Posted July 26, 2018 Baller Share Posted July 26, 2018 @skialex the release will still work because it spins around the arm just so long as the arms are properly leaning rearward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skialex Posted July 26, 2018 Baller Share Posted July 26, 2018 @BraceMaker well yes if the force is significant and usually is, but also the uncut tip of the shell will not let the release fully spin around the arms. Anyway all I’m saying is that I wouldn’t use this as is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ozski Posted July 26, 2018 Baller Share Posted July 26, 2018 The rear boot is not an R-style, its a a moded std boot and it looks like an intuition liner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller rockdog Posted July 28, 2018 Baller Share Posted July 28, 2018 @skialex do you think a professional water skier such as Whit is using a setup which she has no idea whether it will work or not? Cmon man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller OldboyII Posted July 28, 2018 Baller Share Posted July 28, 2018 It is not a question to sportsmen, it is a question to manufacturers - recommend users not to compromise with safety for better performance. if sportsman does any modification, he/she does it on his own risk. Original Reflex construction does allow full arm swing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Deanoski Posted July 28, 2018 Baller Share Posted July 28, 2018 They use tape on the toe bar for two reasons alignement if needed. And to hold the toe down after the shell is heated and flatened. It takes up the space on top of the boot. Because the toe bar cannot be adjusted that low after the boot is flatened Im sure most skiers dock test the release Mine releases fine with all the same modes as her front boot.

Administrators Horton Posted July 28, 2018 Administrators Share Posted July 28, 2018 Is clearly Reflex + R style rear & none Reflex liner in rear. @skialex I run my R style super close to my front boot. it does not interfere with the release.

Baller skialex Posted July 28, 2018 Baller Share Posted July 28, 2018 @Horton yes, as long as the top of your rear shell’s tip is cut off, the r-style shell is. If you use an uncut shell super close, full arm swing is difficult. I’m not saying a release is impossible but not as it should be and the blocking of the heel can result to hitting the ski with the shin and other body parts. A friend of mine runs his rstyle so close that the rear shell touches the back of the front shell. His r style tip if cut off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ISP6ball Posted July 28, 2018 Baller Share Posted July 28, 2018 Maybe an R Style concept, but not an R Style boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skialex Posted July 28, 2018 Baller Share Posted July 28, 2018 Now that I see the closeup, boots are not that close together, a proper rstyle boot or a straighter arms release such as 840 would make this a safer setup without needing a get used to period.

Baller Brewski Posted July 28, 2018 Baller Share Posted July 28, 2018 Look like the (Reflex Style) boots Quantum was selling sometime back. I have done lots of testing on this set up. The release has to move back less than 1/8" if the block on the back of the front boot is cut down. That set up does not look like it would release correctly from the pix its hard to tell if there is enough clearance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
