Some just have lifters and others don't. You can grind down the screws on the lifter ones, take off the lifters and mount them like that.

ti's replace heavier metal with titanium and plastic parts with some hardcore polycarbonate or something.  and the jibbs are just light and lifters come with lifters.

Lifters are the little things under the binding that raise the whole binding a few mm's, so you have more vertical leverage for racers, so it is easier to carve. The pivot is the style of heal of the binding, which in alot of peoples opinions is much better.
