No. If you only weigh 150 lbs., there's no reason at all that you need a 16 DIN binding. A relatively small number of people actually need their bindings to be at 12. Period.

OP: Griffons would be perfect.

you want to be in the middle of a din rang brah you wouldnt want griffons if you rode a 10 din or higher. the jesters are 6-16 and trust me if you weigh 150 there's no reason you wouldnt want metal instead of plastic if you're hitting legit jumps doing legit tricks. period. haha

plus resale on jesters would be easier and if you're gonna grow and get better you'll get heavier thus higher din for weight and higher din for skillz.
