I got the 4frnt 2012 yle this summer and Im trying to decide between the Marker Jester, and the Rossignal Axial2 140 XXL, any thoughts?

Im level III gonna be skiing at Bridger this winter.
 
And im like 5 10 185 lbs and the yle's are my powder ski, I also have the volkl bridges with the jesters on them, and they have worked great.
 
Based on how many good things I've geared about the axial, and how few things I've heard about the jester from people I know, I would buy the axials. Seems like a bomber binding for their price and the only downfall was changing breaks. Good luck man!
 
Another suggestion would be the STH 14. The new ones only come in a driver version, which is pretty much the best toe piece available currently. They also can be found pretty cheap from last season.
 
I have used both the axail2s and the jesters, and overall I much perfer the Jesters. I have used both bindings on some of the deepest days ever in the alps and BC coast and interior, and I had more confidence in the axail. I had no real trouble getting either binding on in powder, however the axail definately was easier/quicker. The main problem I experienced with the Jester was the heel piece sliding back on the rail, the caused me to pre-release. I don't believe the problem was particular to my Jesters as I have experienced the same problem on Barons. Skiing almost back to back I have to say that I felt the power transmission on the axails was superior.

Bottom Line: - Axails

Hope this helps, Joey
 
Just picked up the STH16 for £179! OP this is another suggestion I have not personally skied the STH Driver toe bindings, yet, so I cannot comment. However all the reviews/feedback from them is all overwhealmingly positive.
