Replying to STH, Pivot or Jester Pro, which one for awesomeness and durability

I'm trying to figure out what binding I want.
There's several options I have right now:


- STH 12 Driver
- STH 14 Driver
- FFG 16 Team (Just the Atomic version of the STH 16, right)
Any difference between these two except DIN?

- Pivot 14
- Pivot 18
I know the 14 has a plastic toepiece, where the 18 has metal.

- Jester Pro
Don't really know anything about this. Is it all metal? Anyone ridden these?

I don't really want a DIN 12 binding, so the STH 12 isn't really going to be it.

I've heard so many good things about the Pivot/FKS that I really want to try 'em out! I'm looking for a good combination of good releasing, durability and price.

I've told myself that a pair of Pivot 18's should last me about 20 years, is this true? Whereas a STH 14's could possibly break after 3 (or one) years of use.
Anyone think it's a good idea to whip out 220€ (on retail, normally they're 300€) for Pivots because it's a nice investment?

Pretty much happy with any input. What do you guys ski, and how do you like it?
