Marker Jester X 16 MWerks Ski Bindings 2026

The Marker Jester has been a fixture on the feet of hard-charging skiers for as long as most of us can remember. If you see a skier clicked into Jesters, chances are they absolutely rip. The all-new Jester X takes everything that made the Jester a benchmark and refines it for the next generation.

This updated version trims weight without losing strength, thanks to a mix of composite housing, magnesium components, and a redesigned heel that’s noticeably easier to step into. Stronger, lighter, and more dialed in, the Jester X delivers a more connected ride without sacrificing the reliability that made the original famous.

The binding runs on the same DIN range (6–16) and offers the elastic travel and shock absorption advanced skiers depend on, but now transfers energy more efficiently for better feel underfoot and snappier edge-to-edge transitions.

What skiers will notice right away is the feedback, there’s a more direct connection to the ski, improved power delivery, and the kind of precision that builds confidence, whether you’re locked into a carve or pointing it through chop.

While the chassis is built on the proven Jester platform, the new footprint and materials are what separate the X: it’s familiar performance with a sharper, more modern edge.
