i have sveral pairs of 14frees and 18comps...I only use those two models (other than my AT setup) ..they are relatively bomber...although the metal baseplate on the heel pieces of the 14's tend to break near the screws...but they have an awsome warrentee and if your doing that then your a stud.
To many people post shit about how markers suck...blah blah blah
Markers are as good or better than any other binding out there....if your skiing for a lot...all gear will eventually break. Markers have the best and most reliable tension...
Maybe the best option would be a marker toe piece and look pivot heel piece...hmmm
