Problems wih Marker 11.0 Free?

I've been having a sh*t load of problems with my Marker 11.0 Free's, like its popping me out when I land my jumps, or when it receives a big impact. The part that connects the brake to the rear part has also snapped TWICE on me, both in less than 4 days, both on the same binding. I broke it landing switch on 180 on a small step-up. I brought it bak to the shop, but they told me no warranties on brakes so I paid the $45 then it broke on me again 2 days later, same binding. Both same prob.
Is this just my bindings, or is it a popular prob. and should I spend $ to get them fixed again or should I just chuck em and not jip $ on bindings nxt time?

yeah my freidn has the 18 din marker's and the same shit happens to him
first day back after breaking a break on the second run his din is at 9 and hes like 150 pounds does a 180 over like 7 foot jump double ejects both brakes break so its just marker there breaks are garbage
there bindings are pretty much the same way too id save up and get a pair of used looks or rossis around here or you can sometimes find th px's online around 100

Marker claims themselves as the safest bindings in the world. This may be true, but, because of their extra safety features, come off more than any other binding. I have a pair of 1200 Free on my beater skis, and I have a lot of problems with the upward release on the toe if I land a little back seat. I only weigh 150 and have my DIN set to 9. I might turn it down as I'm a little afraid of blowing a knee, but we'll see. Oh yeah, I've also tweaked them off on in a mute grab.

exact same thing happenned to me with my 11.o's....The would randomly pop off on jumps and release, it was only a 30 footer, did a 180, brake popeed off, landed 1 footed, pulled groin, broken brake....But oyu got screwed voer man, you didnt have ti pay for it, marker has a 1 or 2 year warranty and i got mine fixed no problem, my DIN was at like 8.5, im 5'11 180........should my DIN be higher i ride like 90% park....
but ye dude that stinks, when you can switch to different bindings cuz the 11.0's dont seem to work for anyone

for the price of two brakes you could find brand new px12s.
