Thats what they all say, but if you KNOW someone they can be easier to get than consumer bindings. I'll keep an eye out for you buddy. Try talking to a Rossi or Look rep, they should be able to hook you up.

dont those things not have the good look/rossi toe piece, and instead, a wing design like salomons?

use either proctorjones.com, or talk to a rep. sometimes there's cheap ones on eba or on here, but they get snapped up pretty quick

What's the advantage of using a rossi FK versus a look pivot binding? I'm thinking about getting the FK's for my new AR5's, but just wanted to know the difference between them before I buy them

^benefit is that there's no heel track. on the regular pivots, there's a track that the heelpiece is attached to (track is mounted on the ski, heelpiece is screwed onto the track). these heel tracks bend on big stuff (switch landings, etc), so lots of pros use the FKS because it goes directly into the ski.

so the FKS's retention is about the same as a normal pivot, just the way it's mounting is stronger? im not going to be landing switch on insanely massive tables and only weigh about 150 in the first place, so they dont seem necessary

Is there a noticable difference in weight between the p12 and p18. Is it worth the cost to get the p18 over the p12. I'd check it myself but I'm overseas for a while.

I have a friend who wants to sell his old school Rossi Din to 18 bindings. They are light and unbreakable, and he bent the brakes for a wide ski.

p18s are actually lighter than p14s, more durable, and still have the pivot heelpiece. bad ass binding.
