Look Pivot 18 Review
Переглядів 57 тис.4 роки тому
The Look Pivot 18 is the ultimate downhill ski binding. In our opinion, this binding is safer, more durable, and higher performance than any other binding ever made. For serious skiers looking for a binding that will last a lifetime and keep them safe, look no further.

Yeah I’ll just give you the money to do it please 🙏🏻 😂
show that guy en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punch_(tool)
It is 2024 today so to mount it today will cost you $100 plus time and to drop it off and pick it up from the ski shop. Thank you for the grate video I have to do two pairs of ski so I got special drill bit with a right depth for $20 from Amazon.
Hi Great video. I am just about to mount some pivots on an 88 all mountain ski that have 95 brake width. My concerns are the height of brakes when up. Surely they catch when carving. The stowage mechanism on the looks is a bit old fashioned and don’t lift and retract like newer bindings. Not a problem on your powder ski obviously. Am I just being paranoid!
Did you drill the ski with the same diameter drill bit as for snuggly fitting into the binding hole or did you measure the inside thread diameter of the screw? Do you take the screw to a hardware store to find out what the threads are and buy a tap for it?
Center by weight/balance or length? If by length, from absolute tip to tail or front most ground contact point to tail,
Thanks for the video. No one in my area mounts bindings, so I'm going to attempt it myself.
Best guide I’ve seen for mounting bindings! Great job! I’m about to mount some pivot 15s on my new powder skis. The only question I have is locating the heel piece. I see that you centered the post adjustments to be in the middle to have a little room, but can you give me an idea of what you look for in heel piece location? From the video, it looks like with the heel piece pushed all the way down you had about 1/8” or so gap between the boot heel and the binding. Is that about right? Thanks man!
The look. 15 is what most skiers will max out at the pivot 18 starts at eight where 70% of the skiers are below that din setting.
Haha the bias in the comments is wild. You'd swear these bindings would bail you out of prison and airlift you to a luxury island. Reasons why a Pivot might not be for you: *Heel piece can be difficult to dismount and remount boot in deep powder *Heel piece can clog with snow and stop clamping actuation *Heel piece has a very minimal amount of adjustment and can prevent other boot sizes very quickly *Pivot design limits brake options and makes much more difficult to change brake *Pivot is not the choice of racing athletes in the Look brand *Heel piece can easily get torn up while using pole tip to release or tear up the base of a ski to release
hi, hello, hao, ola,
Great, precise and clean job, pal !!! Few years ago i also mounted Look 15 pivots by myself , but jus as precaution ( in order to avoid some errors with mounting the heel piece ) i first premounted a pair of those bindings on one auxiliary wooden board and took the exact measurements and transmit it on my skis. I also keept the forward pressure tunning rods somewhere in the middle position during the instalation so now they can easily accommodate several boot sizes. And yes, they are also GripWalk compatible.Very simple, proven, versatile and probabyly the safest bindings on the market. BRGDS
Nice!
Worst paint quality ever ! Chips more than Tiger Woods. ,🤦🏼
Just picked up some news skis and pivots, I'll be doing this install this weekend
Sweet!
How did it go, I’ve always had mine professionally mounted and now just got my first fat pow skis and a bit scared to do it myself
What boat sizes are they compatible for
My only comment would be to make sure you drill perfectly straight. Use a drill press if you don't feel confident w/ a hand drill. You can also set the stops on a drill press. Otherwise, the binding drill jigs have drill bushings to make sure you drill straight & some have built in stops as to not drill too deep.
Where is this at?
This is where you go when you find the door at the back of the wardrobe......
Is the center of the ski the geometrical center or center of gravity
I personally would recommend squirting a little bit of wood glue inside the holes where the screws go, that way it locks the screw in and seals the holes from water entry
Most ski shops mount bindings if you buy them there. Also I wouldn't trust anyone mounting their own bindings because there's no way to test if they are working correctly.
LOVE my Pivot 18's.
You could just download and print a template for the binding...
How much lighter is it?
Very nice! Good work
One thing to mention- Ski bindings do not use Phillips screws. They are #3 PoziDriv screws and the proper bits make the job much easier without stripping the heads.
Looks like dog poop
great video, thanks for sharing!
You can use a large drill bit by hand to chamfer the whole
With a proper ski bit, the shoulder on the bit is not a stop, it's a counter sink. This allows any material drawn up by the screw to sit in the counter sink void, keeping the binding nice and flat to the ski.
This is a 1st class UA-cam video. Little things like marking drill bit depth with tape... Bravo. Upvoted.
I do most of my own ski tuning and waxing but I never attempt to mount bindings. Ski shops have the proper equipment to do it right. And a binding that is even slightly off center or not correctly positioned front to back can cause the ski to act erratically and can cause the bindings to release differently depending on whether they release to the left or right. Better safe than sorry, is how I feel.
Question: How do you find exact centre or in other words can you tell us how you measured to find centre ie from tip to tip or from where ski curves type of thing. Thanktyou in advance.
Great informative video! For now though I’d rather spend the 40 or so to get it done professionally because it takes so much time to do it yourself and if a mistake is made, it’s on them! I usually set my own din though because the din that comes out of the shop is usually too high for my ski style.
what drill bit size do you use ? or what sizes should we be using depending on screw size ? sorry just heard it on your video.. 11/64
Cool. Thanks for sharing. Know I am wiser. One question. What size bit do you use to pre drill the holes?
4:02 - Hi! Can you help me with advice. Ski waist is 104 There is two width of bindings: B95 and B115 Which one is better for 104 mm waist? B95 - I can unbend it a little(is it good idea?). Or better B115 only 11mm thicker then waist. It’s ~5 mm one side.
Go with 115
115, the spring steel won't bend and hold shape easily if you get the 95.
Bad, bad, BAD advice on placing all dead center of the physical ski for watchers. Most skis are marked for THAT SKI as it was designed by the ski designer and impacts how the ski will perform. Placing it in the physical center may DESTROY those intentionally placed markings for the best ski performance. Current racer and advanced extreme skier for the past 40 years
Bad, bad listener. He said that is where HE chooses to mount HIS setup. Yours, is up to YOU.
Yes indeed😁@@randyabbonizio6216
best ski performance is relative to what you use the ski. I.e. touring, telemark, freeride, or slope. For touring and freeride, you may want to leave the marking 10-15mm towards the back. For slope, it is surely best to use the manufacturer's marking. But that is my opinion and my advice to you is etiquette!

Thanks for watching
Great job! No forward pressure adjustments on that binding?
Yes on look pivots you use the side post adjusters on the heal to align the white plastic tag with the rear on the heal piece. Similar to other model bindings.
awesome instructional video. just ordered some SPX12s for my new Rangers and I'm going to undertake this... Thank you very much!
Has anyone else found the plastic the toe and heel piece is made from to be very soft and gets chipped and gouged quickly?
how did you find the ski centre line
Hello, bindings are fixed and cannot be adjusted to another boot once they have been set, rignt?
The p18 binding has some adjustability, but it's more limited than most other alpine bindings.
Love the simple and practical and easy to understand video for a person like me who is doing it for the first time!
Why not use a look binding jig
You should use a jig if you have it, obviously. This video is for people who don't have a jig. If you have a jig, there's no reason for an instructional video like this.
@@skisledshred1277 why wpild u mount it with out one ?
@@skisledshred1277 u shouldn’t be mounting with out a jig lol that’s y there’s a shop
@@skisledshred1277 you realize that you just told everyone how to void their warranty and indemnification, right?
This is the only binding type that I don't have early heel release problems.
Hello, awesome video. What do you think about 115mm ski brake to 100mm waist ski?
It’s fine, brakes should be no more than 20mm bigger
I always opt for smaller brakes when using Look Pivot meaning, I use 95mm brakes on skis up to 110. You can just take out the brakes, fastem them in a vice and widen them a little. Better than to have too wide brakes that will drag in the ground as you cant the ski in turns.
perfect video! just what i was looking for
My a arm bent same spot
