used to be a boarder but have converted to skis for this year,,
ive got myself a pair of K2 jung fujas. i wanted to get some marker bindings to go with them, any ideas what would be the best suited? marker jesters or griffins? im not a massive guy, 5ft 10 and about 70kilos, your help would be much appreciated

Why Marker just out of interest?
Either would do the job! Am I right in thinking Jesters run from 6 din upwards? If then you may be better off with other bindings.

i stole my mates skis for two days earlier in the year. and refused to get off the slope. dont wana sound big headed but i caught on really quick. i think the whole ballance and movement of me ice skating alot of my life has helped.
if im going to be doing alot of jumping etc should i have a higher din?

You'll need to Register first of course.

if you *need* Jesters you'll probably know it (ie you ski on very high DIN settings)
aside from this, I suspect Jesters might be a bit more durable given that the Griffins have a bit more plastic in them so this would be the only reason to pay the extra IMO

benyl, generally yes but if you are not doing it them you should have someone charting it and setting your dins up for you.
GOod to hear you have come over to the right side-generally hockey players do pick it up real quick, least you'll have the hockey stops nailed.
As Arno says.

It will depend on the Boot Sole Length of your boots, have you got boots yet?

benyl, are you going to spin and ride switch? Griffon for light & less ramp. If not, PX12.

You know it makes sense.

benyl, 5'10", little feet, go Griffon.
Less ramp the better.
