Read the Q and A at the bottom... if you're not super aggro, or if you're lighter you'll be fine.  buy them.

I'm putting Griffons on my Spiral Anthems and Bacons. I'm not too worried about the height. I don't think you'll notice much between the Lifters and Griffons height wise.

Don't worry about the height or lifters or anything.  It's one of those things, where I think if you know how to ski, it won't matter.  some of the best skiers in the world seem to use them no problem.

you're wrong, i've skied both binding and the griffon is far more lighter.

Dude, get the griffons, they're super light and will hold up fine. You'll be happy you spent your money well.

the difference is only liek a couple mm, and unless you hitting 825275265 ft jumps, i dont think it will change anything.

Hating over the internet is an obvious attempt at compensating for something..
