Line Blade question.

I just got my Blades and am wondering what bindings people are pairing them with. I am an advanced skier, 5"11 195 pounds. Nothing crazy with these. I have Sakanas that I will be using in the trees, doing drops, etc. These will mostly be just for cruising on groomer days.
 
I was considering bumping forward, but guys at store convinced me to mount on line which is like -7? -6? I can measure. They do look fun
 
I am less concerned with the stack height on these skis because they are wide enough that booting out isn't an issue.

These skis were developed with marker Griffin Demo and ski great with that binding. I personally ski on a Look pivot 18s and can verify that they ski really well with that binding too. In general, I'd say the Jester/Griffin is the best bang for the buck.

Measuring the "center mark" of the ski can be confusing because we use forward and aft contact points compared to full ski length. I would not recommend pushing the mount point forward. The mount point is already far forward on the Blade and was tested and designed to be skied at that mount point.
 
putting jester pro 18 (green) or 16 black on mine. with the pivots so few buddys gets to try them. adjustability for boot size way better on jesters.

Good point. Adjustability on markers is much better!
