Pivot hole pattern
Quick? Are the hole patterns the same for p12,14 and the steel 18’s?
Thinking about mounting a ski with pivots and eventually putting a new CAST system on it(new CAST is only p18’s). In the meantime I’ll go cheap with a p14 until I scrape together the extrA $ on a CAST system. Hoping the 14 has the same hole pattern

I had last year's Pivot 14 Dual WTRs and P-18s in house this Summer. The mounting pattern matched up for both of these.
Same strategy for me as well (18s/CAST) until I decided it was overkill for me and I sold the 18s.
Keep in mind that CAST comments to not use inserts (QK/BF), at least on the toe mount, 'coz the CAST toe employs a standard binding screw thread.

That's about the only thing I don't like about Pivots and Ions - brake width complications. It definitely takes some planning.

It is possible to swap the brakes on turntables without separating the dildo from the base plate, but it's not a job for the faint of heart (or the mechanically inept).

Thanks. I recall reading this, but have yet to have the need to explore Pivot brake swaps.
I also recall 1000-Oaks commenting that Ion brake swaps are quite complicated.
I do a lot of seasonal swapping using inserts in my skis (i.e. using my moving bindings from Spring skis to early Winter rock skis and such), so width flexibility varies between "nice to have" and necessary.

Pivot brake swaps could be a good task to master

Yeah he used to post here or newschoolers or both, but I can't recall what his handle was.
The first time go slow because you don't want to screw up or lose the small parts, but once you've done it a few times it's smooth. Pro tip: don't bend the plate any more than you have to.
