Guys thanks for all the help with ski recommendations, but I found a guy on here selling brand new trouble makers for a great price and so I went with those. Next year hopefully I will get to check out the Chronics, AR6s, and MSPs. So now that I have the sticks I need bindings...
6"0" 180 and skiing on Dynastrar Trouble Makers 175cm
Marker Griffons?Marker Jester?Look?Rossi?
What do you guys think I should hook these up with?
Dynastar recommends you set them up with the PX12 Jib...what do you guys think??
I will primarily be on the mountain, with 15%-20% in the park on jumps...not into jibbing much yet.
ThanksMike
 
the look and rossi bindings are the same product more or less, different badging and colors though.
I used jesters last year, and loved them. A 16 din bindings may be a little overkill for you though since I am gathering that you are not gonna be hucking your meat off every feature, plus you dont weigh too much.
Id play it by price, the griffons and jesters are imo better bindings, but how much do you want to pay? You can find px/axial2 bindings for $110 bucks brand new. Good luck getting new griffons let alone jesters for that price.
 
Thanks for the help. I ended up finding a pair of Griffons for $145 online so I picked those up. I decided the Jester's weren't worth the money because I am not going to be going too big.

 
umm... arent the jesters made of plastic too??

yes they have a metal toepiece and a higher din setting. just because the kid weighs 180 lbs it doesnt mean that he will DESTROY the griffons because they are made of plastic. im 6'2'' 170 and ive got the griffons. does that mean that i will destroy them? absolutely not. maybe if he were charging deep pow lines up in AK i would recommend the jesters, but not for ordinary park skiing.

you made a great choice on the griffons. you will not be dissapointed and they will last many seasons.
 
Yeah last weekend I demoed a pair of extreme's that were mounted with Griffons and that was an awesome setup. I am not nearly as park focused as a lot of the guys here, and I am not launching myself off into 80 fts gaps so the Griffons especially for that price made sense.
