MARKER Jester 18 Pro
Best heavy duty binding for aggressive expert freeride skiers.
These bindings are built for aggressive riders who demand absolute power transfer and rock-solid retention in the backcountry or park. While the heavy-duty magnesium construction adds a bit of weight, the trade-off is unmatched edge control and a reliable, ice-clearing design that keeps you locked in when conditions get rowdy.
