Different force needed for cliping out

[Petar_Dimanov]

So I recently bought new Rossignol Axial 2 120 bindings. Today was my first day testing them out and I was pretty stoked about it. When I tried to clip them out with my poles the right one needed some force, but still nothing special, I found it to be normal. But when I tried cliping out the left one it was really hard, even my pole started bending and I just ended up cliping them out by stepping on them. I was kinda puzzled to why is there such a big difference but anyway, I continued skiing.

I hit some jumps and tried a tweaked mute grab twice and both times my right binding cliped out in the air when I reached for the ski with my left hand. My DINs were set at 9 since I'm new to freestyle and expect to crash more frequently. Once again I didn't expect that behaviour from the binding. While waiting in line for the lift I tried grabing my ski as if I am doing a mute and do some pulling to see if the ski will come off again but it didn't.

So do you guys have any ideas what might be causing this difference in the two bindings? Mainly the cliping out party.

sounds like your forward pressure is off a bit. Put both of your boots in the bindings and check the little window behind the dildo to see if how much black and yellow is in the window. I've noticed that with these bindings sometimes the forward pressure has to be really far forward to indicate correctly.

but really, just take em to the shop who mounted em and ask them to take a look.

as a shop tech i second this. it could be that the pivot part of the heel has seized up too, but it is more than likely that your forward pressure is off. def take them to a shop and explain to them the situation...
