There’s like a very fine lint like coating on the bases of both pairs. Bases definitely don’t have that fresh wax feel. Found out when I was already...

    Look Pivot 18 Help

    Hey everyone, I just had Look Pivot 18s mounted on my new Bent Chetler 120s. I bought them lightly used off a guy at a local shop.

    Thinking about switching to FKS 140s??

    Hey all, Last week, I picked up a pair of mint 2016 Line Blends (178cm) from a ski swap, with Marker Griffon Demos already mounted. I saved a bit of money buying from the swap and started considering if it would be worth it switching to Rossi FKS 140 bindings. Originally, I planned on buying...
