Griffon VS Jester? (Light Vs Durable ? )

I am thinking which to buy? I don't need the din of the Jester and I don't want the extra weight compared to the griffon.. but on the other hand I am worried about the durability and power transmition of the griffon because it's all plastic..
Is the griffon going to have a worse power transmition than the jester?

Which should a buy?

PS: is there any binding lighter than the griffon?

Thanks!

ive got griffons on my Kung Fujas's and they are solid. Ive got more than 90 days on them, ripped the heel pieces outta both skis, and they are still going strong. even though theyre plastic, the vital parts are metal and solid like Lukas mentioned. best binder ever for skis ovver 87mm under foot

I have a pair of the marker griffons on my armada t-halls and just love them. Super durable and not flimsy. I have already over 50 days on my griffons and still as good as new. Even though there is a fair amount of plastic the important parts are metal. When you click into them they fell really solid.
