Check this site, punch in Dynastar for ratings (this site is Canadian, BTW):

Troublemaker is a park/pipe/freestyle ski, twin-tip, very popular with freestylers, was one of the early dedicated skis for this (now there are many). Apparently, it stands the test of time!
Dynastars have to have Look bindings - what will work on this model is dependent on the waist width (and I haven't checked this model). If it's a wide waist, you might have to go w/what's recommended.
---I just checked, 81 mm waist, this is listed as a men's model - have you looked at "She's Trouble," the women's specific, or did this ski catch your eye somewhere on sale?
Most Dynastars will take a Look Nova (10 or 11) or a PX-10 or 12, but the variant is the width of the brake (to fit over the waist). Jerry-rigging isn't a great idea with ski brakes (i.e., having brakes bent to make them fit over wider waist).
Will tell you, though, that the Pivot is a great binding, Jib sounds as though it is freestyle specific - do you know the DIN range of it and what your current DIN is?
The shop/merchant will probably be a better source of info that I am, but maybe this is a start??

p.s. Hey, what's up? You gettin' into jibbin'???? You DO know these are freestyle skis, right???

I'll watch
Yeah, I'll spot your jumps, take photos and videos, and I'll copiously post all!!!
(I have experience in the photo/video of people on elements dept) But you're gonna have to find someone else to show you these ropes - my skis stay on snowa-firma!
Did you get twin-tippers? Dying to know. Don't be shy. Tell us!

In fact, I've been known to ski backwards without gloves on while video'ing people, through the whole park run - there ARE things I CAN do
Pass on the elements 4 me...
