I'm an intermediate skier, in the park probably 40% of the time. Just moved from Line Anthems to LIBtech NAS 09's Jib ski and i need new bindings, Im looking for something light, strong and simple. So far i've been suggested the LOOK Jib P12's anyone got any suggestions on newer bindings, does anyone make pivot bindings anymore and im looking to spend ~200$ but preferably looking not to go apeshit on the cash.


+Karma for suggestions, thanks guys.

I've looked at the "Answer to 'what binding'" post, but i'd like direct input towards my situation.

Rossi/Look/ make Pivots right now but they will set you back some cash. The PX 12's are good binders though not ultra light (still lighter than full matal) but durable, very reliable and lot cheaper.

You think the Griffons are heavy?  are you out of your mind?   They are so light.  If you think those are heavy try riding with a pair of Pivots on your skis.  And the Griffons are barely better than their comp series bindings.  they are all plastic and fall apart after a couple months of riding.  I

To the OP-  If you do go with Marker, spend the extra cash and by the Jesters instead of the Griffons, they stay together a little bit better.  But really look into an old or new pair of Pivots/FKS.  They may be heavy but by far the safest and most durable binding out there.

buy a pair of Rossignol SAS 120's. they seem to fit your cause. get last years or somthing, they are the same and will be cheaper.

Get the griffons. Nice and light and simple. They aren't the best binding, but unless your super advanced your going to be well within the bindings limitations.
