I may be high but why doesn’t LOOK make a frame binding (markee duke, salomon guardian) with a pivot heel. They would definitely do it better. I feel like the pivot following is strong enough that a lot of people would buy them. For people that dont spend much time touring but want one solid binding to hike and ski in bounds with. I know theres cast but not everyone has tech toes and cast is a lot of $$$

Sounds heavy and the market is moving away from frame bindings fir a reason, they're not great. Just get some daymakers if your boots don't have toe inserts or GR boots with toe inserts. You'll be much better off.

Could simply be the many more moving parts on a pivot heel compared to marker / tyrolia / salomon heels.

Was going to mention these, saw a video of them last winter - anyone actually seen them in person? Or used them?

It’s a lot of money but you could buy the CAST touring system for $300 extra dollars. You get the best of both worlds. (As long as you have a Pivot 15 or 18)
