yes, the p12 jib has a 2mm rubber shock absorbtion pad under the binding but that is kinda just a pointless gimmick

I'm pretty sure the 'shock absorber' is also not unique to the jib. Its just orange so you can actually see it. My p10 from two seasons ago have it but its harder to notice. I think thats what they call the the shock absorber

acutally 221, your incorrect. The p12 jib is not made of plastic, it has some metel construction, just pick one up and you will see. The Titanium bindings offerd from look this year are not constructed fully of titanium eather, cuz if they were then you would be lookin at some dam expensive bindings. Basicly the only differance between the titanium p12 and the non titanium p12 is the heel track and a couple other small parts, not a huge differance in weight as one would think.

sure you would. hiking at higher altitudes, every gram matters. especially because the ti is only $20 more. plus, bitches love titanium.

10% off a 5 or so pound binding is really not that huge, but I agree, spend the $20 more and get the bling of titanium.
