I would seriously try to avoid these bindings at all costs. Unless you want your bindings to self destruct once you click in.

It really depends on your weight and how aggressive you are on your skis. If you're a smaller guy, they should be alright.

SO everyone says they are junk and plastic and will explode when you put them on. But I have yet to see a picture of an exploded squire with someone who is riding park and less than 175 lbs.. Maybe someone can prove me wrong but I don't believe it until I see it.

Marker squire are designed for lighter less aggressive riders and they do the job they are designed to do. However, most people on NS are serious about ripping on the slopes so maybe you should consider a more rugged binding. Even a px14 from evo will prove to be more durable.

In my opinion I would go with the griffon, or if you want to go cheaper got with the look px12s. The px12s are pretty solid bindings and are affordable.

No one that rides remotely hard should ride these if they are over 120-130 lbs.

I would not trust this binding what so ever. just my opinion. i'm 140 pounds and i wouldn't go near it or even think of it. i looked at it in a shop and its prob one of the cheapest looking constructions of a binding possible. seems like a junior binding.

You have jester and you ride them at 6.5 ? Your are 120 lbs? Its not good to put a din at its lower, i have jester and they are at 10. You should have bought sth12, grifons, px12..... A binding thts go too 12 , imo. Maybe im wrong
