Description
The Look Pivot 14 GW Ski Bindings are a classic and highly regarded choice among dedicated skiers worldwide. Known for their reliability, consistent release, and superior retention, these bindings offer a range of features that contribute to their outstanding performance. Here's a breakdown of the key features and specifications of the Look Pivot 14 GW Ski Bindings:
Features:
- Full Action Toe | 45 mm Elasticity: The Full Action toe piece boasts 45mm of elastic travel and 180⁰ multi-directional release. This results in exceptional retention, release, and increased coupling strength between the boot and binding interface, ensuring maximum power transmission.
- 180˚ Multi-Directional Release: The toe piece features a true mechanical upward release that functions independently from the heel. This design provides highly effective multi-directional protection in the event of a fall.
- Dual Standard Concept: The binding is compatible with both ISO 5355 Alpine and GripWalk soles. Look has strategically reinforced the toe housing, elongated the toe-wings, and made other adjustments to ensure compatibility with both standards.
- 28mm Vertical Elasticity: The heel offers 28mm of vertical elasticity, which is among the highest of any binding on the market. This elasticity helps prevent unwanted pre-releasing.
- Turntable Heel: The unique turntable heel design rotates directly under the tibia, reducing the risk of injury. It also provides 28mm of elastic travel for effective shock absorption and reduced pre-release.
- Smaller Mounting Zone: The Pivot 14 features the shortest mounting zone of any alpine binding, resulting in less swing weight, improved response, and a more consistent ski flex.
- 7 Points of Contact: More points of contact with the boot enhance lateral energy transmission, delivering more power to the ski's edge. This results in superior control, response, and snow feel.
- Rolling Control: The binding components are specifically designed to deliver industry-leading roll coupling strength at the boot-to-binding interface. This design minimizes roll before the boot engages the binding, ensuring the most efficient power transmission while skiing.
- Recommended brake width: Equal to or at most 15mm wider than the ski waist width.
- Ability Level: Intermediate-Advanced
- DIN / Release Value Low: 5
- DIN / Release Value High: 14
- Boot Sole Type: Alpine DIN (ISO 5355), GripWalk (ISO 23223)
- Warranty: 1 Year
The Look Pivot 14 GW Ski Bindings offer exceptional performance, elasticity, and reliability, making them an ideal choice for skiers who prioritize classic design and superior retention.
