Lifter Bindings vs Regular

Can anyone give me some input on lifter vs regular bindings? I know you can take the lifter off and grind down/get new screws. Do the lifters help much?

Well, the main purpose behind lifters is to increase the potential for the ski to be put on edge without boot interference. It helps with carving pretty much.

I can't say whether or not it effects park skiing from experience, but I can't see it making much a difference.

for park it wont make that much of a difference without them, and for carving it does make a difference with them.... so just keep them if your bindings come with them
