Ok so I'm going to be riding Anthems for park and all around shit
then I'll have either Jp vs. Juliens or 4frnt VCT's for powder and cliffs and shit, and a bit of all mtn stuff
I'm 5'10 145lbs, very agressive skier. I relaly don't know a lot about bindings but I'm considering
Z12's
Sth 14's or 12's can't remember what they come in
Px12's jib or whatever
Marker Jester (these look hot, and I think they will be very good bindings, maybe even the new standard)
4Frnt 12 or 14 din ones
Are there any other bindings I should consider?
Thanks guys

jester. i know its marker, but it completly different than anything ever offered. its based off a wider platform for more feel and better anckorage.

Ya, the jesters are lookin pretty ill. They are a bit expensive though, but I'll hopefully be getting them for well under retail. Should I go jester for anthems and my wide ski or?

I saw that earlier. Ya, seems like a really good deal though. If my shop doesn't have good deals I'll probably buy those, well at least for my anthems.

the jester is super light and built very well and the fit the anthem without having to bend the brakes, but if your pockets arent that deep go for the px12 jibs i rode them all last season and have nothing bad to say about them i think they might be a bit heavier though

Ya, I rode jibs all last season too, good bindings, never had any problems, I don't really wanna out jibs on the bc skis though, probably a lil higher din.

I don't think Z12's would be suited for a pow ski (and, if you're an aggressive skier, at all). STH 12's don't seem a bad choice, and neither do the 4Frnt bindings for your pow skis. PX12 would be good for all mountain.

I think I'll put jesters on my Bacons
and for the Anthems I'm not sure yet, anyone?
I can get 412 deadbolts for like $125
or look p12 jibs for $200
or STH 12's for like $250
I'm thinking deadbolts would be good cause they are cheap and I've heard they are pretty bombproof.

px 12/14 is the best non race stock binding on the market right now. Smooth constant release, lots of forward pressure.and not to expensive.

Ya, I rode the p12 jibs last year and I never had a problem, but if the deadbolts are as good I'll get them because they are cheaper.

you should be able to find px12s for less than 200 no problem. my shop is selling them for under 200 right now, and will be all season. the look bindings feel so much more solid to me than the 4frnt bindings do.
