Im getting a pair of V-pros really soon, and on them i have the option for two different bindings.

1: Marker 1200 Free
2: Look P12 / Jib

Both are at really good prices, i just dont know which will turn out to be the best binding for the ski and for me.

ps. I dont spend tons of time in the park, but a reasonable amount. The setup is for more all mountain type riding.

Thanks.

from what i've heard looks are the way to go, which is why i am prob gonna get the p12, although i think they are heavier binding, and i heard markers fall apart easily???

Looks have a lot of good reviews, and Marker have a lot of bad reviews. IF it's between those two, go Look definately - you won't regret it.

The new look ti bindings aren't quite as heavy and I'm pretty sure they are the same design, just with titanium instead of stainless steel...

I don't know if I should get some though, any help?

so now, say that the markers are only $150 (canadian), and the looks are $299. Is it still the same choice? or should i start to look around for different companies.

If i could have any brand of binding, do i still go with look, or should i try to find something else.

Thanks
