Summary
[edit]DescriptionNew and old Look bindings.jpeg |
English: Mounted to a pair Head Standard skis, these bindings illustrate the evolution of the Look bindings over 30 years. On the left is a Nevada II toe and N17 heel on its turntable mounting. On the right are a Rossignol-branded version of the Look Pivot design from the 1990s. The lineage is obvious.
The real changes between these two designs are limited. Plastics have replaced metals wherever possible, lowering weight and cost, but making the binding larger overall. The new design includes a ski brake, which has been universal since the 1970s. The bronze roller in the Grand Prix, designed to fit in the place of a cable binding, is no longer needed. More subtle changes are implemented in the toe binding. The toe can now release upwards, first introduced on the XM models. Note the small graphic on the side of the toe clip illustrating the release directions. The two-finger design of the Nevada II, which lasted well into the 1990s, has been replaced by a single cup more reminiscent of the original Nevada. However, this cup is designed to roll sideways, instead of pivot, completely eliminating the possibility of the pivots jamming if the force is directed right at them. |
