    You are very likely fucked. Apple revokes the digital certificate of their previous iOS firmware shortly after they release a new version. You can't load up a version of iOS if it's not signed or if Apple has revoked the certificate. Yesterday, Apple revoked the certificate for iOS10. That means that if you don't have a backup of your iPad with the previous version of iOS handy, you're basically stuck with it. But, if you'd asked a day or two ago, you probably could have downgraded.

    Edit:
    You can check here to see if your iPad will still downgrade to iOS10: https://api.ineal.me/tss/status

    If you didn't save the shsh blobs before upgrading your firmware, I fear there is no turning back, since Apple stops sign outdated firmware after a few days.
