Baller TonyT Posted April 28, 2020 Baller Share Posted April 28, 2020 Thoughts on Radar vapor set-up - 2020 ski Put reflex binding on this spring with boots at 30 1/2 6.935 2.472 .762 68" ski Right forward. Not liking my on side at 32/35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ The_MS Posted April 28, 2020 Baller_ Share Posted April 28, 2020 @TonyT probably water temps and a new binding set up. I would wait for 65 or so water and see what happens or you may chase a setting that will need to change by next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller C5Quest Posted April 29, 2020 Baller Share Posted April 29, 2020 The 2020 Vapor really likes long/shallow settings. I’m usually more short/deep but didn’t work for me. Once I changed to L/S it worked. Still undecided if I like my 19 better though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Deanoski Posted April 29, 2020 Baller Share Posted April 29, 2020 I'm on a 67 2020 vapor 2.504 6.839 74.7 10 wing Fb 29 7/8 got it last august got me running -35 again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Chris Rossi Posted April 29, 2020 Baller Share Posted April 29, 2020 @TonyT For the settings you are currently running, I’d try going back with the boots to 30 1/4”. Should help with the on side turn. And like @Gloersen and @C5Quest recommended, if you haven’t tried the stock Radar long/shallow and short/deep set ups, I’d recommend doing so.

Baller TonyT Posted April 30, 2020 Author Baller Share Posted April 30, 2020 Thanks - trying the long shallower settings today. Boot placement changed moving to Reflex bindings. Back 1/2". Coming off the vapor boots. I'll try 30 1/2, 6.970, 2.465, .775, 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller C5Quest Posted April 30, 2020 Baller Share Posted April 30, 2020 Think I ended up at stock long/shallow settings but moved Bf forward 1/8 in before it all clicked for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ The_MS Posted April 30, 2020 Baller_ Share Posted April 30, 2020 The actual binding swap may need some time To adjust. How is your toe spacing compared to the Carbitex? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller TonyT Posted May 1, 2020 Author Baller Share Posted May 1, 2020 I'm 33 sets into the season and my skiing sucks. Considering getting off the reflex and moving back to the radar boots. I can't seem to find the right fin and reflex boot settings so I can at least run a decent pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller_ The_MS Posted May 1, 2020 Baller_ Share Posted May 1, 2020 Nice, 33 sets. Back to the Carbitex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skierjp Posted May 1, 2020 Baller Share Posted May 1, 2020 @TonyT , one tip with the Reflex starting out is have the buckles loose, especially the top one. There is a Andy Mapple video with tips on the Reflex boot. In my opinion stick with the Radar boots it’s a better boot and less aggravation. I’ve had both and prefer the Radar boots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ mike_mapple Posted May 1, 2020 Baller_ Share Posted May 1, 2020 @TonyT what @skierjp said is right.... Start at :51 That is the video he is referencing.. keep in mind that is not my dads actual reflex set up, he had his modified for his foot. But the part on how he did the clips is there.

Baller jimski Posted May 2, 2020 Baller Share Posted May 2, 2020 Been on the 2020 since last Aug I’m running double reflex with long shallow settings DFT at .775 wing at 7deg I’m skiing close to the best I ever have. Loving this ski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller BraceMaker Posted May 2, 2020 Baller Share Posted May 2, 2020 I still use the top buckle modification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller TonyT Posted May 2, 2020 Author Baller Share Posted May 2, 2020 Thanks for the great input everyone. I really appreciate it. Reflex boot placement at 30 1/4 with the short deep setting make sense? Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
