I have the Afterbangs with griffon bindings and they are not to heavy. They weigh more than my ar6 with griffons but you wont really notice the weight if you mount the bindings true center.

afterbangs are a 100 percent symmetrical ski. where else would you mount them...

griffons are a pretty light binding cause its a lot of plastic. but i have mine mounted with px12's and i think they are light

Griffons, they're not bad skis at all, I've done about 80 days on them and they just feel a bit dull now. Pretty bombproof though!

I've seen cork 9's done on flat tailed skis, never worry about this sort of stuff.
