Marker Jester 16 Ski Binding
YUUUUUP

Pretty awesome looking bindings. I have them mounted on 185 Volkl Kuro's. No pop out issues, have been doing some jumps but not super big.
One issue that lead to me giving them 4 stars versus 5 was that after skiing them for the first two days on my Kuro's the backplate came loose on both skis. Took them back to the shop where they were mounted and the owner put some screw retainers on both back screws of both back plates. They are very solid now. Most likely an issue with the original tech not tightening them enough, but the owner commented that he has seen this problem before on a pair of rockered Armadas in which the whole back plate came of with some Baron bindings. Just thought I would throw this out there to see if anyone has had similar issues.
Overall a very bomber binding. I don't see any future problems coming up. Great looking and preforming on my Volkl Kuro's!

I had the same thing happen four days after I had new Jesters mounted to Nordica Enforcers. The right rear binding is wiggling and you can see 2-3 mm of daylight between it and the ski.... and on top of that the bindings never seem to release. I backed the ski-shop set dins back to an 8 to try not to kill myself. ( I weigh 170, and am 5'9") I am not impressed I should have bought LOOKs or Salomon. I think these Jesters suck.
