Need new bindings to mount on a pair of line prophet 98s.
Jester or px14? I don't know much (if anything) about bindings.
I weigh 95kg, am 6' 4" and like to ski mixed terrain. These are to suit skiing off piste as much as on and should be able to handle small drops.
One option is to mount my barons but these skis aren't to be used for any kind of skinning, more lift served hooning around.
Are the mount points for jesters and barons the same?
Also, I see freezeproshop have an offer on jester pro's... Worth the extra and does that wee bar on the toe make much difference?
Anyone with experience of the Prophet 98s and did you mount on or behind the line?
Any info much appreciated.
No rush to buy as there's not much snow!

Mounting points are different , but you could get quiver killers to double up
Jester is a great binding, and will handle most jumps and drops , but think the pro version would only be of benefit for those really pushing the limits ,

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

carbon_copy, that's what I thought about the pro too, but worth checking

Idea............... sell your Barons on Ebay.
Buy some piste orientated kit for your excellent mid-fat skis.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

shoogly, They do look extremely cool though, obviously not a reason for buying them

You'll need to Register first of course.

if you were planning on selling your barons you could(not certain about this) get quiver killers on an mfd plate and then have just the one set of non touring bindings, get some GOOD bindings and just switch them between skis easily if quiver killers work with mfd plates.

I have Jester Pros on my Line SFBs. Great binding but a bit OTT for general use. Standard Jesters would be a good choice. Or even Griffons for a lightweight setup. I have Griffons on my Prophet 100s and no probs, although I'm 10kg lighter.
