^ yup hes pretty much right. din of 12 and din of 10. the p10s might also have a lifter, which the p12 jibs do not.

Yeah. they're all right. Unless you are a badass or weight more than 200 lbs. i'd say you don't really need a din past 10. The p12 jibs have the fancy trouble maker graphics, but paying 50$ extra dollars just for graphics is absurd.

You should be fine with p10's.

okay, p12 jibs are a bit heavier but more durable. i would get the jibs because say you have your din at 8. with the p10's it would be putting more stress on them than with the p12 jibs. more stress can lead to pre-releasess and possibly breaking. idealy you want a binding for which your din level falls in the center of the range. the lower it is in the range the more reliable they will be

exactly. I like to stay 2-4 whole numbers away from the max din. If you ski smooth, your bindings are in good shape, properly adjusted, and your boots soles are not warn. Then you should be set. Most people over look there boots soles

What does the lifter do? I am buying p10 lifter bindings today and want to know if you can take it off or not.

you can take the lifters off, however you will need to provide the shop thats mounting them with new shorter screws.

the shop will have them. But the only reason you need the screws is if you get p10 lifters, and do not wish to have the lifters.
like everyone said, the only difference is the din. p12's have a tighter spring or something.

unless you are spending 80% of your time on groomers, dont get lifters. i have p12, great binding, good durability. i overshot a landing by 30 feet, and the toe piece twisted, as it is supposed to. just pop it back into place. great bindings!
