Can anybody identify these bindings?

Not sure how old these are, or if there's a way to adjust the forward pressure. The only thing I can do is adjust the DIN on these it seems. They're Marker bindings, just not sure about anything else. Also no, there is no screw near the back of the rear binding to adjust forward pressure, or markings in millimeters for fitting a boot in. Key words are Marker, Titanium, Turbo SC, Twincam M4.

See, that's what I'm worried about. These could be old enough that a shop would say "Sorry we can't work on those". Also they belong in a trash can.... I guess I didn't luck out and get fantastic ones then haha.

Any serious shop would refuse to work on these because of their age and risk they won't release properly. Never buy old skis with old bindings unless you want to put them on your wall or do everything yourself on them.

I had a pair mounted to Dynastar Legends back in the day. Race-inspired. Good binding at the time but heavy. Don't use them, though. Not worth the risk to your knees.

FYI I believe these were consumer bindings based on the MRR (https://www.panjo.com/buy/marker-mrr-racing-bindings-150550), which was a kind of interesting race binding with a turntable heel (similar to Pivots) and those same exterior springs.

Man look at you doing all this research while i'm gone haha. Thank you, it's really interesting seeing those. I took them out skiing anyway, some dude in a rental shop worked on them despite him admitting he shouldn't. But they worked very well, still released properly and everything. And my legs remained un-twisted. Thanks for your help man.

I wouldn't use those.
I remember seeing those back in 2001, and nobody would touch them. They had a habit of breaking when not in use. People got upset when you told them that the binding that was fine yesterday, had just broken sitting in the ski rack, and that's why they couldn't get them to work.

I just remember researching them back when. At the time I didn't really know much of anything about ski gear. I figured they must be good if they were so obviously inspired by a legit race binding, and I liked the turntable heel piece (these days I'm rocking Pivots), but mostly I just fucking loved the exposed springs and the wacky color choices-- not exactly great reasons to choose a binding. These days I wouldn't put them on skis but I never had any problems back when I had them.
