P12 spacer vs. lifter

[WIfreeskier]

I'm getting a used pair of some P12 spacers and I also found a good deal on some P12 lifters. what is the difference between these?

Im guessing the only difference is the lifter part.

who wants lifters

my rossi freeride 120s came with a raiser plate (lifter) - they apparently help with steering my giving you more leverage so you can turn with less effort

lifters are just the plate that sits under the binding to give you more leverage for an easier turn, cause the higher up on a ski your foot sits, the easier it is to turn it on edge and carve a turn

get the lifters...u can always mount the bindings W/O the lifters underneath

if its a twin tip, then most people dont use lifters...i usually put the SMALLEST lifter i can find under a look binding, because if you mount them without any lifter, i myself feel like you lose some all mtn performance on the ski, but thats just my opinion on how i like a ski to feel and what lifters do for you

also, depending on how narrow the ski is, lifters prevent boot drag if you really lay the ski on edge and carve it
