I want to buy last year's Jester Pros cause there is a pretty good deal on them but I'm not sure if they're right for me. I'm 5'10, 195 lbs, intermediate to advanced, ski 80% park, 20% groomers. I understand I don't need an 18 din binding but they'd look dope on my new skis and you can't beat the price. Should I commit and buy em or should I get a better fitting binding?

If you're getting a good deal there's really no reason not to go with them, as long as you ride with above an 8 DIN. If you use below an 8, don't buy them, it isn't worth it.

word...also...would the squire be too "small" for me? I saw someone say that they aren't burly enough for even a rider thats 165 lbs...

the squire is almost more of a junior binding. I would go griffon and up.

More so if your DIN isnt at an 8, you wont be able to use them. Have to figure if you Din in them or not

Only buy bindings if you fit into the DIN range.. Are your knees more important than showing off your color coordination?
