Hey I am going to by looks because I have heard that markers sucs. Is that true? But I have heard that looks don`t reliese verticaly, thats bullshit right? because look is the best bindings on the market, is`n it?
 
If you are hitting jumps and land wrong markers tend to break in the break area. Looks I preffer a lot more.
 
I've cracked the toe piece of my markers and ripped the heal piece out of the rail and skiing switch they decided to eject breaking the break and almost my arm. So I switched to Rossi axials, which are the same exact thing as looks even manufactured by the same people and I LOVE them
 
i would go with looks regardless, they are durable and plus the pivot (if you can find it) could save you from some nasty knee injuries. Try and find the p10 or 12 if possible.
 
marker releases upwards from the toepiece, look sideways... and the old heels pivot. so, since twisting backwards falls blow your knees... marker stops it by letting you release vertically as well is to the side... but if you land backseat at all, you have a chance of the toepiece letting you go when you dont want it to. so, if you wanna stop that, you gotta crank on the din... and then youll probably blow the screw so... marker doesnt suck, and youll probably be fine on them, but... maybe not.
 
^ I dont know anything about markers, but I believe axial toe pieces release side to side and up and down as well. The whole toe thing/ wings rotate left or right like a clock. Im pretty sure that helps them release up and down. Its happenned a couple times if i fall really hard leaning back at an odd angle, but it rarely happens.
 
yeah ihad looks on my tm's the jibs and now i have markers on my nordicas and i'm scarred
 
they are both great bindinds they are just two diffrent designs in the way in which they release the twin cam is great so is the look/rossi but like its been said b4 if you can find a pivot go for it i have em on both my skis n i love em you could also look at the mojo15 which has the best of all worlds with the diagonal heel
