Im sooo sick of get fucked over by "warrenties".
A couple of years ago, i had some Look bindings, broke in the same place 5 times, the answer i got when wondering if i could get a warrenty:" No you were Jibbing".
Soo last year I bought Armada skis, as promoted to be "tough edges for rails" and Marker "freeride" bindings for FREESKIING. So the ski edges crack in 12 spots within two days doing BOXES, but because I was so unhappy about it, the rep here, Woofly was good enough to replace them! Your the man Woolfy. but my new ones are also fucked.come to realise alllll skis are fucked on rails.
Anyway though just recently my friend had a go on my skis and snapped one of the bindings just Learning, and the other one was cracking in the same spot. NOOO WARRENTY, coz i was "Jibbing", on FREERIDE fucken bindings, fucken dickheads. Sick of being shafted.
May all your interventions be Humanitarian.

take good care of your shit and it dosent happen. I take good care of my laroses(whitch are known to have crap edges) i hit rails all year and no cracks.
Make sure you wipe down your skis with a rag (the edges) before putting them in your car to go chome, if not, edges can get rusty real quick.
rusty edges + rails = no warrenty.
but i have no clue with the look binding on your part.
Some company should make a specific warrenty for rails, like if they brake in a certin amount of days from rails you can warrenty them, and you only get that offer like twice.
But then again the company would probly be losing the money....
yeah, i went there

buy some reactors then if they break Line will cover it no questions.... as long as they're not hack sawed in half or something lol
try not Jumping and stomping onto rails, get only as much air as you need, it looks smoother like that any ways ... save the real abuse for doing gaps and disasters. That or you're just unlucky to crack 'em that bad in like 2 days

Marker has a good return policy...call their customer service line...I have never not had a pair replaced and have been through 6 or 7 pairs the past five seasons....
the only fault of markers is that the heel piece screws are too far apart causing the metal plate to flex and eventualy crack under the brake...

And don't buy the Rossignol Scratch Axial's. My friend was at sunshine and there was this tiny step up and he landed switch on 'em and all the plastic under the heal shattered. He's busted 2 pairs only weighs 120lbs and he sent them back they told him they gave him new ones but they just poored epoxy in there.
