Long Elastic Travel
A LARGE ELASTIC TRAVEL allows powerful skiers to avoid untimely releases while adjusting their bindings to the release value recommended by ISO standards: to ski hard with confidence and safety.
Multi directional release
The LOOK stops offer a MULTIDIRECTIONAL RELEASE that protects the skier in all cases of fall, including rear and combined falls. Their mechanics keep a constant pressure on the boot and eliminate any gapping for the best possible control.
Full Action Toe Piece
The FULL ACTION reinforced stop provides: - A 14% wider jaw for better transmission between the boot and the ski. - A 10% wider platform for even more efficient transmission. - Reinforced components for better resistance and durability.
Rolling Control
All components and mechanisms reduce roll; your energy input is directly transmitted to the skis.
