Double ejection issue landing switch

It seems every time I go off a larger jump and land switch I double eject and absolutely ruin my brakes (which I proceed to bend back over and over again.) Has happened on every misty 5, cork 5 and most reg 5s this season. it’s quite annoying. So I’m trying to figure out if I’m just ass at skiing or my dins are too low. I’m 5’11 150 skiing on attack 13s set at 9. I don’t have any good angled clips to determine if I just suck or not. On 5s that I don’t die on, I usually land with my hands dragging the landing so any tips to land more perpendicular to the landing would be appreciated.
 
attack 13s are notorious for issues releasing incorrectly if the afd plate isn’t set right. lots of info regarding that on google and on here but we all know how jank the search bar is. another problem can be the forward pressure tab on the heel piece of your binding, notches on the small metal piece must be lined up with corners of black metal next to it. again there’s plenty of info on google for that.
 
There's something iffy in your bindings for sure, I'd get them checked. But it also sounds like you land your weight VERY far from centered, which isn't helping the situation. There's something wrong with your set but it's pretty much impossible to tell without seeing a clip for a trick that complicated. Do you land very backseat on your forward landings?

I'd choose a binding releasing too early every time over a binding not releasing at all. Be careful about cranking your dins higher and don't try to fix a trick set problem by adjusting your bindings.

Forwards landings are spot on. Never really land backseat on them and am always pretty centered. I don’t really have a clip of it happening which is unfortunate because I’d love to self analyze. I have noticed that when I do 5s off jumps with flatter landings they seem to end better for me.
 
Seems like you’re landing super toe heavy and popping out when you do 5s, etc

Sounds like you need to check your forward pressure and afd height. Also your boot soles can be worn out as well.
