Beginner skiers, look elsewhere. The Look PX 18 MaxFlex Alpine Ski Binding is not for the faint of heart. It has a DIN that starts at 8 and goes up to 18 for the most aggressive skiers who push their skis hard and can't afford to have them pre-release. The MaxFlex insert helps the toe and heel piece move and flex together for solid, consistent flex under foot when every ounce of pressure counts. Look bindings have a very short mounting zone, which provides strong lateral support and allows the ski to follow more of its natural flex. Look's heelpiece has a huge range of elastic travel with automatic re-centering giving you more time to recover before it releases and making it easier to get back on in deep powder and steep slopes.

Bombproof control for those skiing with their hair on fire.
