jester, I wouldn't recommend the schizo's though, my brother weighs a lot less than you and broke 5 schizo plates in a year.

I would never recommend Schizos to anyone, or markers for that matter, but i guess that's a different story.

I need bindings with a brake to fit 132 underfoot, I can't find any other bindings which can do 132 brakes

Liberty http://libertyskis.com/bindings, they are rebranded tyrolias but they come with really wide brakes.

At 187lb you'll break them. I virtually guarantee it. Griffons more so, Jesters probably, especially because they're Schizo.

I assume you're getting Hellbents, from the 132mm bit. There are tons of bindings that any tech worth a damn can easily bend the brakes on to fit that ski. You can bend 115mm FKS brakes relatively easily to fit them. Don't get a less-suitable binding just because it's slightly trickier to get a brake that will fit.

You can get look pivots (14 or 18) with a 130mm brake
