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.

max pilling tested this product
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...

Leo is a legend!
5 /5
I really appreciated Leo’s honestly as most online reviews of the ski equipment I was looking for were far too positive, and really very few people willing to admit or call out truths about various options, however Leo was spot on and understood exactly what I was experiencing with my current skis which perhaps weren’t the best choice for where I ski. That said we had a huge downfall of snow today and my skis performed absolutely brilliantly, but with Leo’s help I decided to upgrade my skis anyway and also needed bindings for my new Atomic Maverick 88ti skis, following Leo’s advice I opted for the Marker Griffin 13 ID Bindings.

Parker was top notch!
5 /5
Parker was so helpful with sending me recommendations and even created a personalized video that explained why he was making the recommendations. I definitely didn’t expect such great service from an online ski salesperson! I’ve been looking for skis for months now and Parker helped me decide in one afternoon! I would highly recommend this service to anyone looking to purchase skis!

Zach pays attention to your needs!
5 /5
Zach was great at listening to my request and desires out of equipment. As a 1wk/yr skier. He coulg have just said yep here is your weight, ht. budget and here is your gear. Instead he really paid attention to the issues I have had with gear in the past. The desires I had out of my future gear. Look forward to maybe giving an additional review and feedback when I use this gear in a few weeks.
