Palmer PLS Binding Lifter - 2008 BCS
Available Colors / Styles
The Palmer Power Link System (PLS) Standard Lifters give your board more juice. With 10mm, 13mm, or 20mm of lift, these plates make heelside turns feel like toeside turns and toesides feel more confident and powerful than ever. These lifters' all-mountain versatility lets you hop down chutes, ride waves of pow, or hit your favorite trailside jibs with confidence. Large feet? Fear not. By increasing the distance from your feet to the edges of the board, the Power Link System eliminates the drag of big feet. *Check the sizing chart link for differences between the four styles.
Bottom Line: Take your riding to a higher level.

Palmer PLS Binding Lifter

These things rock. This is the second set I've purchased (only because I lost a piece of the first set, not because they broke), and with a big board they make a HUGE difference. Not only do they keep your toes and heels from dragging, but they really do improve edge to edge control. I definitely recommend them.

Is there a major difference between the standard, flex, and shock?

Babs, for the most part, the technical difference between the three are the height they raise your bindings off of your board(10-20mm). The point of these things is not only shock absorption on stomps and high speed stability, they also act as a physical leverage increaser between you and your board. Depending on what you want to do with these in your setup whether for race or backcountry or park, i'd just go with the shocks, i use them in the park and for off piste stuff, and i feel like the extra 7 mm gives a comfy bed when you pull those massive stomps and at high speeds, its feels like your riding in a B with wings over the wheels. Hope this helped, adios!

they eliminate toe drag, take less effort to really stick to your edge, and help with stability at speed. Everything about turn initiation just feels crisper- all your power goes directly to your edge. These are 10x as effective (and stronger) than the 'Burton Elevators'. Go with the SHOCK for the dampening as well as the toe rise.

I have the 13mm and wear 13s as well. i have about 2.25 inch clearance from the base of the board to the bottom of my boots.(Stance 23",+15,-15; Flow NXT AT bindings). the 20mm will give you another 3/8 inch. Not sure about the effectiveness of the Dual Durometer set up.
NOTE!!! I have since removed the lifters. no difference in carving, just better board feel.

great devices
By: Jason Norco

I don't understand why you would want to ride without these. I have pretty long feet and toe drag was always a problem. These devices give me just enough clearance to remedy the issue. Turns are crisp and clean, energy transfer is improved, there really isn't a downside. For less than $100, you can make your ride smoother and stay on the slopes longer.

I'm interested in these just for the performance enhancement (I don't have dragging issues with my feet). For performance purposes alone, which style would I be best to use?

I have the shocks. i took them off, though. without them i feel like i have better feel for the snow under foot. with them there was a marked decrease in the feel of chatter.

I really like these. I bought the SHOCK (13mm lift) and think that they totally cut down on the amount of effort needed to hard turns. Granted these are not an necessity by any means, but merely a nice-ity. They don't give too much lift where you feel that the center of gravity is off. They do add a little more cushion under your feet as well. I wouldn't ride without these again by choice, but if I am riding one of my boards without them, I wouldn't feel like I would have to change my riding style. I know that sounds like I should give them an average rating, but they are great for what they are, basically an accessory.

Huge Feet

I ride the SHOCK and they are not only great for railing turns, but they also reduce the amount of toe drag someone with size 12+ feet might have. I also have a pair of STANDARD PLS, but prefer the SHOCK as they reduce chatter. One last thing is if you do a lot of traversing say in and out of the backcountry that extra leverage amounts to less energy spent while on edge. It would be hard for me to go back to riding a board without them because I would know what I am missing.
if your board is to skinny do you think these would hang over

Fur: You would have to have an extremely skinny board for these to hang over. I wouldn't be too worried about it if I were you.aaalllen: It's adjustable. You have a minimum width given the circle and the wings, but that's not going to be a problem. To adjust it to your board, you move the wings toward the edge and the circle sits on wing pads.

Has anyone tried these? My feet are sasquatch-esque and i need help! I would just buy them but they arent cheap and i would think raising your center of gravity would be a bad thing...Thanks for any insight.

Rasing your center of gravity by that small of an increment is not very significant as far as your balance goes, but it does make your board more responsive and quicker to gain an edge.
