I'm looking for bindings to put on some faction prodigy 3.0s for free ride purposes. I've always loved pivots, but they're a little of out my price range this season. If I go with the NXs, I'm worried that I won't like them as much as the pivots. I know that the NXs don't have the turntable heel, but are there any other performance differences between the two?

Are you dead set on Look? I think pivots are okay but cheaper Look bindings are garbage IMO. Tyrolia Attack's are probably best bang for buck. As far as Marker goes, I've had decent luck with Griffon's, Jester Pro's are awesome, and Squires are down right horrible.
Idk, if it were me I'd shop around for Pivot, Attack, or Griffon/Jester and go with the best deal. I've had problems with pretty much every lower end binding I've skied, it depends on how hard you ski/how often you break stuff but just not worth it to me

I’m open to anything really, but I do like the pivots the most bc 9 times out of 10 I won’t blow out my knees if I crash super hard. I’m a broke college student so the less I have to pay in medical fees the better. I’m interested in any binding that’a known for its safety

This right here is the right answer. Jump on this OP.

Totally understandable pivots are pricy asf. I’d probably stay away from the NX lineup if you are an experienced skier, i’d go with tyrollia attacks if you are on a budget.

Attack 13s on corbetts.com for $110ish USD, all prices listed on that site are CAD, the exchange rate is favorable for US buyers rn and they offer free shipping on decent sized orders...can't remember the minimum.

Safety in ski bindings is an industry wide problem. I'll save you the speech but the long story short is bindings mitigate tib/fib fractures, and generally aren't designed to mitigate ACL injuries. There have been attempts (KNEE binding) that were plagued with rushed, poor design. Tyrolia just released their protector series, hopefully it doesn't suck but I haven't heard any reviews yet or skied them.
So the only binding that *might* be significantly safer than any solid binding is $400 and relatively unproven, I'd just go for the cheap Attacks someone found tbh.

What size do you need? They have several listings for different colours from different years that may or may not be available with certain brake widths.
