Look's classic pivot turntable heel design offers 28mm of elastic travel and rotates directly under the tibia, delivering elite-level shock absorption and the industry's most trustworthy retention for a significant reduction in unwanted pre-release.
Features
Full Action Toe Piece - Featuring 45mm of elastic travel and 180⁰ multi-directional release, the FULL ACTION toe piece delivers best-in-class retention and release and increased coupling strength (boot-to-binding interface) for maximum power transmission.
Short Mounting Zone - The shortened mounting zone provides less swing weight, improved response, and a deeper, rounder, more consistent ski flex.
Multi-Directional Release - LOOK is the only binding brand to develop a true mechanical upward release that functions independently from the heel for the most effective 180⁰ MULTI DIRECTIONAL RELEASE in the instance of a fall.
Longer elastic travel - Ensures more reliable retention to keep you in when you need. LOOK bindings offer the most elastic travel (lateral and vertical) and the fastest re-centering prior to release, ensuring superior shock absorption to reduce unwanted pre-release.

Buyers Guide to Threaded Ski Binding Inserts
The Skiers Lounge are a stockist and fitter of the Binding Freedom Threaded Ski Binding Insert System, which allows the fitting of a variety of bindings to one set of flat deck skis.
Once installed you can take your bindings on and off as much as you like. This is ideal for travelling as you no longer need to take a set of skis for touring and alpine skiing, you can now take one ski and both sets of bindings. This also reduces your transport costs.
The unique features of the system are:
- Stainless Steel items means no rusting
- Closed end system means a watertight seal preventing water penetration
- Coarse outer threads bites into your skis core - Fine inner thread with M5 thread secures your bindings
- Very small – minimal invasion of your ski core and low visibility too
- Slotted system. Unlike competitors the Binding Freedom insert features a slotted lip, so they can be perfectly aligned and installed with a flat head screwdriver or the pro install tool which Binding Freedom make.
- The composition of the steel is altered by rolling the threads, which creates micro-fissures. This means a stronger adhesion when installing the inserts to the skis
Fitting options
For the Binding Freedom threaded insert system, we offer two options, you can either buy the various parts to install the system yourself, or we offer a fitting service in our dedicated winter sports workshop. So if you are not confident about drilling your own skis, let us take care of this for you, to ensure a safe and secure interface.
We can also assist in calculating the hole placements for a mixture of bindings, whilst ensuring you are still in the optimum position on the ski.
For our Binding Freedom section to buy your inserts and screws online please click here.
For workshop fitting, pricing is as follows:
- Installation onto one pair of undrilled skis - £40.00
- Installation onto one pair of pre-drilled skis - £30.00
The above price is exclusive of inserts and screws which can be found here.
We can mount multiple inserts for you to swap your bindings easily, or just one set to allow ease of removal when travelling with your skis.
