I thought that was a salomon thing. I pulled a 5 off a small jump, landed fine and when I went to turn around to go straight again my binding exploded. The other wing is in my jacket which Is in my mom's car. It just snapped right off and the other wind rotated 90 degrees.

I can honestly say I've never heard of them exploding either... There's a first time for everything I guess.

your left front screw has some pressure cracks on it, not that it matters anymore.

you can't generalize and say 'all look bindings explode' just because YOU had an unfortunate binding failure

I never did say that all look bindings explode I said I didn't know they ever exploded. I was actually generalizing the other way by saying that they don't explode.

well a toe piece blowingup is rare, but the one that is rotated 90 degrees is fine. just stomp on it and itll click back in place. its supposed to twist like that

'i didn't know look bindings exploded.....'

just because it's look, doesn't automatically make it in-frickin-vinsible. sometimes shit happens.

Those aren't the kid bindings that go to 9. They are the same as last years p10's and since I'm light and only ride them at 6 they work good. It's just weird, there was no pressure on my leg or the binding and it just exploded.

ye i was just looking at them and they looked a bit small. You probably are just too big for em and if you overload a binding they are bound to explode. And who mounted them for you, if you did yourself they're more prone to break
