those are the exact same bindings I have without the railflex plate system. Instead of mounting to a plate, it mounts on any flat ski like a regular binding.

Ideally you want to find a light, flat mount binding. All that ability to move the binding adds weight too...
I dont like to bash any ski equipment, but I would never be on Tyrolia Bindings....In the info that is sent to shops on what is still alowed to be worked on there is not a single Tyrolia binding pre-01' or 02'(don't have the papers in front of me) that Tyrolia will let a shop work on. That does not say a whole lot about their quality.
We do not get many Tyrolia's in our shop because we have never a carrier for them, and our local competition is a big place for them. But I fail 1/4-1/2 of the ones that do come in.
Do you want to trust your legs to that?
I would love to try some Elan or Fischer skis, but not when they are teamed with Tyrolia for their system bindings......
And not Marker. :uzi:
I would stay the hell away from the Axial2's.
I've got a pair on my B2's and they have issues if you ask me. Getting into them is a MAJOR PITA. I've brought them back to be tested twice and they still don't work right. Maybe I got a 'lemon' pair, but no matter how clean the surface of my boot, when I go to step into them, I can't just click in. The binding only closes half way and I end up having to grab the heal piece by hand and yank it up to have it close fully.
Annoying as hell.
I always thought the Axial2 and the Look PX12 were the same binding. They look identical. Interestingly enough, I have the same issue with the Rossis, but not with the Looks. I found I really have to stomp on the Rossis to get them to close

Currently own 3 pairs on skis, and have had 2 others in the past 2 years. Never had this problem...;-)
well, looks like a got a lemon then
first pair of Rossi bindings ever and after this experience I will be unlikely to get another pair soon. Oddly, I'm about as big of a fan of Rossignol skis as you might find.....
Psst.... maybe the heel piece has to be adjusted. The little lever in the back lifts up so the piece can slide back a little
bvibert,
My PX14's were the same way when I went from my Langes (307mm) to my Kryptons (306mm). It was the forward pressure. The ski shop moved the heel piece forward slightly until the yellow was halfway in the "window". Now they work fine.

When I set them up the yellow was half way in the window. Admittedly, I haven't checked the forward pressure since. Thanks for the tip. Maybe I'll time to play with it in the off season...
