Replying to Difference between bindings

Hey NS,

So i am not entirely sure what the difference between cheap and expensive bindings is, other than durability.
I am assuming that an expensive bindings allows less prereleases than a cheap binding at the din setting?
I am switching from squires to jesters and i am a little worried about my knees.

I ride the squires at 11 and still pop out switch landings (heavy guy hence the investment in jesters)

Should i try to ride the jesters at an 11 as well or crank the din up a bit, or even lower it down a little bit?

Thanks
