alright so i got some px12 jib troublemakers earlier this year and i wanna put em on some invaders right?
so i get them in the mail, and i pick them up and the toe piece is normal and then i pick up the heelpiece and it was like more than 2 pounds....
how much do you think this heavy ass binding is going to affect my skiing 100% park compared to some really light bindings like some Z12s.

and also what jig is needed for them..

and yes ive tried searchbar.

Well the Invader is a light ski, and the px12 jib is a light to mid-weight binding. I have the Anthems at 178cm and they are still pretty light. But the Invaders should be fine with them, plus they are a great all park ski/binding combo you choose.

The binding is a little heavier because look uses pretty durable materials. I am not the greatest park skier but i dont think the extra 2 pounds is gonna make that much of a difference. I have those bindings and i like them a lot.

i have them, they aren't so bad. remember the binding is in the middle of the ski so i dont think it wuold really affect your skiing speed. im not expert though so maybe someone else has a better answer.

ive got the same bindings on my invaders and they are fine...if a 2 pound difference between your bindings can mess up your skiing almost at all, there is something wrong with your abilities on the slopes

lol alright, and what JIG would be needed to mount the px12 jib troublemakers... because the normal px12 jibs are looks so i would i assume that that would just be a rossi/look JIG but the px12 jib troublemakers are dynastar.....

Those bindings are bombproof. I have a pair and they are kinda heavy but they definatly make up for it in durability.
