Problem with look/rossi pivots

Hey has anyone else had a problem with their breaks? I've messed up a couple heal peices because when i land switch sometimes the breaks will catch and break the tab that hold the break onto the binding. I love the release mechanisim on the look way better that solly's or deadbolts. I was thinking about buying the FKS 120 or 155 but bending or breaking the breaks on those scare me
 
that happend to one binding that i had of look p12...but ive had 2 other pairs of look p12's since and i havnt had any problems.
 
And yes I know the FKS system is different, but you cant get any after market, so if I broke em' I have to go make my own or buy off of someone
 
i have the p12 jibs from a few years ago, bought them new and the breaks blew up on one ski because i fell landing backwards
 
ive had it happen on my p12, but with my scratch's it hasnt yet. i still think look is way better tahn solly or marker..
 
My brakes bend on my fks, but i just bend them back. I imagine they will eventually just break from bending so much, otherwise they aren't going anywhere, they are encased in steel.
 
Every brake is going to break if you put it in the snow that way, they aren't made to be released landing switch. It's not a flaw with Look's binding, it's just the way that all ski bindings are designed.
 
solly breaks are a little more burlu tho. I know from experience. But yes I understand all will go with enough impact.
 
So did these problems make you go to other binders or do you just stick it out with look/rossi. I like the solly brakes, but the constant toe adjusts drive me up a wall. On the other hand i have toasted the brake clip on rossi's
