Who would love these

The Look Pivot 12 is for lighter advanced and expert skiers who want the confidence, durability, and safety of the Pivot turntable heel piece design, but don't need the burliness of the 14/15 DIN options. These are perfect for freestylers/freeriders with smaller frames who want the very best binding retention.

Why I recommend these

Design reduces force on knees
GripWalk and alpine sole compatibility
Ensures natural flex of ski
Absorbs vibrations to prevent pre-releasing

Expert verdict

The Look Pivots are one of the most sought-after and admired bindings on the market due to a unique turntable heel piece which allows the heel to release both vertically AND laterally in the event of fall (95% of all other bindings only release vertically). This results in way less torsional energy transferred to the knees should a fall occur, so the chances of your ACL staying intact are higher—hence why they are so coveted. They are equally well-loved by freestyle/freeride skiers due to their ability to take a beating and keep on ticking. The Pivot heel piece can be a pain to click into for new or less experienced skiers, and the 12 DIN means they are mored suited for lighter or less aggressive intermediate to advanced skiers (experts will want the 14 or 15). But the Pivot has set the standard for what a binding should aspire to be for decades now, and though pricey, they are one of the most durable binding options available.

This product is for aggressive skiers who want a binding they can trust to not prerelease and gives them the peace of mind of an extra smooth and safe release in the heal.

The best part of this binding is it's reliability. The Look Pivot stands out from other bindings because it has a rotating heel piece. This gives your foot a little bit more leeway when landing because your heel can shift a bit, and you won't pop out. This gives you more reliability while still keeping your knees safe. The pivot...

5 /5
Vince was so caring and helpful, I am a skier and my partner is a snowboarder and her board and all her gear recently got stolen. I decided to surprise her with a new set of gear, but had no idea what I was looking at! Vince made it easy to understand, and for that I am so so grateful. Feeling glad I chose Curated!

This is a new business model for me: personal expert guiding me through an expensive purchase. I was a little worried this was AI or at least someone who wanted me to spend max money. However, Christian was not pushy, sent me a lot of info when I asked questions, and guided me towards the best items in my budget. I’d definitely recommend Curated.

First time I ever used Curated and I got paired with a stand-up guy (Jared), he helped me through the process of picking a new board - I've been hesitant to pull the plug on a new one but he got me a great deal and gave me the best options that fit my needs on the mountain.
