Jester X 16 Mwerks Ski Bindings 2027

The Marker Jester X 16 MWerks represents the most significant evolution of the Jester name in its history — a ground-up redesign that addresses every criticism ever levelled at freeride bindings and delivers a result that is lighter, lower, shorter and more connected to the ski than anything Marker has produced before. With a DIN range of 6–16, this is a binding for expert and aggressive skiers who demand absolute retention and direct power delivery in demanding terrain.

The headline specification is the stand height: by integrating the X-Brake fully into the heel plate rather than mounting it beneath, Marker have achieved a heel height of just 14mm and a toe height of 9mm — figures that put the Jester X in direct conversation with the Look Pivot and represent a reduction of roughly 40% compared to the industry standard of 24mm. The 2027 TP Elite X toe is produced from a single cast for the first time, reducing weight while improving structural rigidity. Magnesium components in the toe wings and heel connection frames add strength without mass. The compact footprint improves ski flex sensitivity, and the reinforced Anti Ice Rail ensures clean, reliable step-in regardless of conditions. For skiers who need the full 6–16 DIN range and want the closest possible connection to their skis, the Jester X 16 MWerks is the definitive answer.
