I just got this years suspects.

Which bindings should I mount them with?

My local shop says either the Jesters or the STH 14.

What do you guys think?

if your skis dont get destroyed after hitting a few rails then i would get the markers. they are light and last a long time, also haven't hear anything bad about them so they seem like good bindings.

I've had STH-14's on my last three pair of skis...I'm 6'0" and 175lbs and the bindings have never broken and I ride hard. Everyone shits on the STH-14 and STH-12 toepiece but I've had nothing but good experiences with them. In fact, I had the option this year to mount STH-16's on my Suspects for less money than STH-14's and I still went with the 14's. They're lighter and have auto wing adjustment too.

STH-14 for sure
