Baller C5Quest Posted August 8, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 8, 2021 Can’t wait to get the boot. My reflex has been hacked, sawed, bolted, chopped, duct taped, drilled, run over, etc in search of perfection. I’ve seen the new radar boot and it’s sick.

Baller LOTW Posted August 8, 2021 Author Baller Share Posted August 8, 2021 Is it a new hard shell or just an update? Looks like same old bungee lace from the one pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller C5Quest Posted August 8, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 8, 2021 Basically looks like a vapor boot top with hard shell flat bottom. For use with the reflex binding system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller LOTW Posted August 8, 2021 Author Baller Share Posted August 8, 2021 Well.....that is big news! Bout time too! The thought of those bungees makes my knees and ankles quiver, it's just human nature to crank them as tight as possible. I was guilty of it myself and have seen the injuries from not releasing properly. Yes, it's the fault of the user for sure but the REFLEX release is pretty fool proof once you get them dialed in.

Baller Deanoski Posted August 9, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 9, 2021 Reflex may a be a standard but the technology is from 1960 snow ski non DIN era I wish we had a better option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller BraceMaker Posted August 9, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 9, 2021 @Deanoski would have been cool if they could have it with receivers for the mob blocks. That would solve the really only issue with the mob by allowing the boot to sit fully flat down on the plate not lifted up an extra quarter inch.

Baller C5Quest Posted August 10, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 10, 2021 1st 2022 vapor ride report…wow Haven’t skied in couple weeks so didn’t push anything . Ran a couple 22s, couple 28s and up to my average of about midway through -32. Have to get used to gate pull out compared to 2021. It’s still fast and glides well. Noticed if I even got slightly flat on the glide it was twitchy. I’m guessing the deeper tunnel and new bevels really want to make it roll on edge and build angle quickly. About the 3 or 4th gate I settled down. Still working on the gate timing but was able to keep the glide on outer edge and avoid the “twitch”. Turns in quickly and builds angle with a solid steady feel. Conditions were calm tonight and it just cut so smoothly. Rock solid feel and felt like less effort. As advertised it skis slightly more tip up then the 2021. Builds crazy angle off the ball and was very early on a few passes. allowed me to get away with a few turns I shouldn’t have and keep moving forward. And my off-side…..wow. Just kept over the ski and carved around with perfect angle when I hooked up. Was just a quick first set. Didn’t push it but this one feels like a keeper. Can’t wait to get dialed in settings. Im exactly at 66” stock numbers from the Radar site. I never skied really well on my 20/21 but the 2022 feels it suits my style better. Go get one!!!

Baller fu_man Posted August 10, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 10, 2021 Do the new boots still have the rubber behind the ankle? I love the Vapor boots but that is always the thing that fails first on an otherwise rugged piece of equipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Deanoski Posted August 10, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 10, 2021 @BraceMaker MOB is also old 1960 Non Din tech, but MOB does have forward pressure and Setting spring. Reflex only has setting spring no forward pressure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller brooks Posted August 10, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 10, 2021 @fu_man that is now made out of Silicone and is now as rugged as the rest of the boot, the upper cuff can be replaceable on this new boot as well which is an awesome feature!

Baller theboardingschool Posted August 12, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 12, 2021 Picked up my 2022 at Radar last week. I haven't been skiing at all and skied as well as I can. Combined with the new boot, it's a dream. There was no way I was leaving without that thing! People are going to absolutely love it. It stays tip down very naturally creating a ton of drive and and ton of swing with not much effort. And, the white is super crispy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller UWSkier Posted August 13, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 13, 2021 @Sethro no, Senate Pro. Back to the 69 from 71. Buddy got his 67 SP a week ago and loving it. We're both lowly 28 off class C skiers but I'm really looking forward to trying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller GMC Posted August 13, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 13, 2021 @MS you and me both. I got a 67" and rode it for the first time last night. Feels like the right size to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Keith_Menard Posted August 14, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 14, 2021 Went from the 17 to the 22. Both feel like Corvettes...the 17 feels like a 1968, the 22 feels like a 22. Both fast, both powerful, both fun...but the new one feels more refined Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
