take a look at the griffon schizo it sick. you can move it forward and backwards depending if your skiing deep powder or drop cliffs or skiing groomers or trees.

Julien has STH16's on his JJ

Tanner has Tyrolia.

Don't buy STH12/14.. shitty toepiece that breaks easily.

It's really hard to click your boot in into FKS if you got any snow under your boot. But still a damn good binding.

I have jesters on mine and could rave about them all day. have taken a big beating and they still super strong.. super light and a very secure binding. cant say i have had fks but they are heavier (but full metal). also if length adjustment is a problem go with jesters as fks's are very limited.

Hope it helped

i have jester schizos on my JJs and its pretty darn fun. i like being able to move the binding forward and back for different conditions

i find that they carve best -2 or 3 from dead center. but when landing switch in pow its dope having the binding forward
