Replying to Look pivot discussion: solid toe piece vs split wing? Why so $$$ compared to attacks/sths/markers?

dolanslebensraum:
Also why is the pivot heel piece so flimsy looking? Assuming it is indeed as strong as it needs to be, couldnt they engineer the heel piece so it looked/was more solid and sturdy? To me the heel piece looks like some 1970s shit. Maybe that was their intention?

i think the single piece toe piece looks cooler than the split wing toe piece but is it better?

and about price, you can get tyrolia attack 13s for 140$ new, yet pivots are often 300$-400$ or more. Why is their such a price difference? Mceachran and stevenson and jesper all kill it on tyrolia attacks; i dont understand why the whole universe seems to be drawn to look pivots when you can get some badass attacks for way less $
