    I now have a ski rack!  As you can see I modified the side bolsters previously, I felt they took up too much room.  The bolster mod really cleaned it up and gives a little more room for the ski rack.

    Reflex Direct Connect

    in Skis Fins Bindings

    Posted

    @Horton I have included a picture to better describe my question.  Without the release mechanism engaged, I can place the heel of the boot flush against the heel cup, but then the release mechanism doesn't look fully engaged. There is a gap, almost a 1/4", is this typical for a reflex system?  This is my first reflex binding.  Coming from an alpine skiing background, this doesn't look right.  @ColeGiacopuzzi this is what I was trying to describe.  I am in the furthest hole backward on my Senate so I cannot try moving my boot backwards.  If the boot was flush with the heel cup I could try the boot placement you had suggested.

    I'm hoping I can get some help setting up my Direct Connect.  I watched Neilly Ross's video and it seems pretty straightforward.  What I have found is that if I put the boot flush against the heel cup, I can't engage the release mechanism.  To engage the release, I must move the toe cup forward so there is an 1/8" of room between the heel cup and the back of the boot.  Any suggestions?

    @HortonI bought one of these last year, they are amazing!  Here in northern Vermont November and April skiing in 50-degree water and 40 degrees is bone-chilling cold.  We ski in dry suits, but you can still feel the cold coming through.  When I finish a set, I pop this thing on and it is incredible.  I would highly recommend it!

    2024 Radar Vapor Review

    IMPORTANT NOTE

    settings for the above review are for a 67. boot placement is with a Radar Vapor boot measured from where the back of the boot hits the plate. if you're in a classic reflex boot the boot measurements is 1/8 of an inch less. 1/8 of an inch back.

    @ColeGiacopuzzi did I get this correct?

    So to be clear, if the measurement for a 67 Senate calls for 30 1/4, the reflex measurent should be 30 1/8 from where the heal meets the ski?  Sorry for the confusion....
