New setup! have some questions

Well after 7 years I decided it was time to refresh my setup old Hyperlite setup, so I got this new Ronix One board/binding combo shipped to my place in Argentina.

After making my expensive way through customs, I finally have the setup home waiting for it's first ride, I have many questions, hope someone jumps in and help.

I've been wondering how's this about distributing the weight on a 3 stage rocker (I come from a continous rocker), and how this variable rail thing work. Overall how do you ride this thing?

About the bindings I'm not sure I undertand how the laces work, I can adjust them but do they stay like that or loosen during the set?
Also, any home-made ideas to do the moldable thing? with a hair dryer maybe? I think I'll be adding the J-bars too. I tried the bindings and my heel had some play.

How's durability and warranty on this things?, I see it's all made in Taiwan now??? When my friend had a problem with the inserts on his Hyperlite board they warrantied it right away, should I expect the same with this company?

Really appreciate any input

thanks
Luciano

what board and bindings did you get?

"Ronix One board/binding combo"

Warranty is great, board is alright but thats a personal opinion I know freinds that love it, and depending on your riding style Id say its pretty durable. The only problem Ive seen and experienced are the base plates on the bindings can break at times. But if your not hittin double ups and just out there for a good time, you got a great board and nothing to worry about. Ronix will back you on there product as well. Reps, riders, and staff are great!

I have the same set-up and I love it! for distribution of weight. I ride with the bindings all the way out so it is even thats just a personal preferance. My Bindings I just tighten the bottom part as tight as i can pull then do the top the same way. They dont seem to loosen for me during my set unless you take a hard fall. I usally check before I go again. I never heat molded them if your in warm weather I think they will mold quickly. Ive heard people using a hot bathtub or shower or even a hot tub. A hair dyer might work ok? As for the inserts I rode my board all year and have had no problems just make sure you keep checking to make sure there tight. Hope some of this helps! I love the board and bindings hope it works well for you too!!

HAHAH...i've been at work too long...

just get out and ride it...

hey! thanks all for the quick answers, as for the stance I tried the board/bindings at home and had it set. What I meant about weight distribution is regarding this variable rail thing and turning/edging.

As for the kind of use, I only ride on wake, and have not been in enough good shape to hit a double up for a loooooong time, so I think I'll be nice to it.

I'm not sure when I'll have time to try it out, hope it's soon!
