i just bought a pair of fkx and in one of the pics one heel was like way higher than the other i asked a few people on here they didnt know what i was talking about. heres is an example of what im talking about. my question is this a common occurence for these bindings and is it a big problem:

It seemed fine with the boot in. And I don't think they are supposed to pivot easy, especially with your boot clicked in. I always saw that as a terrible design flaw in the binding. It doesn't seem like having a bar extend out from the back that is held on by rivets would work too well. I have never had the chance to use FKS, so this is just an observation. Have a shop tech check it out maybe?
 
yea just to clarify these arent my bindings but by pivot you mean side to side not up and down like these are. and i think the bar just keep the heel at the proper height for you to click i. withoust i think your heel would sag and you would have to pick it up. idk i cant wait for them to arrive and scope them out.
 
You asked this a few months ago and people told you they were fine then. They're still fine.
 
if anything the problem is your other heel. they are supposed to move up and down like that. hit it will some grease.
 
super glue it if its that big of a problem, it doesnt move when the boots in there so whats the problem?
 
Bindings are good man no worries. I have quite a few pairs and some move a little easier then others nothing to worry about. once you lock the boot in your set.
 
3 of the 4 pairs of fks i own right now have that exact same thing on at least one heel, it's not a problem at all
