Look Pivot 2.0 13 GW Ski Binding - 2027 Blue Steel, 105

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""This binding has all the classic Pivot tech without needing a race-level DIN. The elasticity and turntable heel make it feel super secure, even in variable conditions. It’s the perfect sweet spot for aggressive skiers who don’t need the 15 or 18."" We trust the Look Pivot 2. 0 13 GW Ski Binding to bring the iconic power and release characteristics of the Pivot line to a broader range of skiers. With an approachable DIN range up to 13, this binding still features the hallmark turntable heel, outstanding elasticity, and the shortest mounting zone in alpine skiing. The Full Action Toe delivers 45mm of lateral elasticity and true 180° multi-directional release, ensuring responsive retention and dependable protection in the event of a fall. At the rear, the turntable heel rotates under the tibia for smooth release and absorbs shock with 28mm of vertical elasticity to dramatically reduce unwanted pre-release. Compatible with both Alpine DIN and GripWalk soles, the Pivot 2. 0 13 gives you pro-level feel and security in a more accessible package."
