14378640:bbw.enthusiast said:yeah, a lot of people who suggest attacks are skiing like mellow ass all mountain - theyre probably fine for that but there is a good reason most skiers doing somewhat gnarly stunts are on pivots or even sth or jesters. would recomend attacks even less for park lol

Attack2 they changed the toe piece. Almost nothing at the front lip to grab and hold the toe lug. This issue is amplified when the ski is at max flex.
Know multiple shops that have stopped caring attacks because of it. But most definitely they need the AFD adjusting regular is what I have seen when people have problems.

I have two pairs of attacks with the same issue. Tried two boots - lupos & kryptons (with afd height & forward pressure correct) The binding wiggles up and down while skating or when you Ollie.
I have had several prereleases with this binding. I took them to the shop twice, and all adjustments look correct to the tech.

The binding wiggles up and down while skating or when you Ollie. I've had them just blow off my feet while skiing crud. Or just fall the fuck off when I land tiny side hits.
I have had several prereleases with this binding. I took them to the shop twice, and all adjustments look correct to the tech. I'd clear the snow... Switch skis... Not matter what I do, I can't keep this fucking binding on my goddamn feet.
I am over it. Seems like it works for lots of people, guess I'm not one of them.

i skied off and bailed on one ski wondering wtf happened?
Both my heels were still clicked up on both skis, but this honestly scared the fuck out of me. That simply can’t happen to me at certain places I ski.
so what happened? DINS to low? 5,9 - 155lb riding at 8 1/2 din, but I need to raise it as that’s early season.
worried that this will happen in a spot that will seriously fuck me up if it happens again
It doesn’t make sense that DIN was the issue here tho - I can confidently weight on my nose for small nose presses and stuff and have never popped out on one of those

14419611:SEABURN said:Aww. You're a fixer. Thanks, buddy.
I maxed out the toe height, and still had a gap.
3 certified techs and the shop owner couldn't figure it out. I know how to adjust toe height. My post was more of a vent than anything else.

14419634:DominatorJacques said:So the binding was out of adjustment? Seems that's what you are saying.
14420539:SEABURN said:Nope. Faulty AFD. The local Tyrolia rep said he's had to warranty a handful of these for the same reason in the past. This pair (brand new, skied twice) is getting new AFDs
Seeing as how this is the 2nd set of Attacks I've had to warranty for the very same reason, I will no longer use these bindings.
14420612:DominatorJacques said:Faulty in what way? I assume toe, but you know how assuming goes.
Please explain for us.
I've seen the springs break in the toe AFD plate, but that has noting to do with height adjustment.
14420632:SEABURN said:The mechanism that keeps the toe height in place was self adjusting (like others have said) you need to check toe height regularly with these
14382192:Lemuel said:Things to check before cranking dins:
- forward pressure
- afd/ toe height depending on binding
- boot soles (if you drag your feet you will wear the sole out)
If you don’t know what you are doing, bring them to a shop. Make sure there is no snow on your toe or heel. If it has only happened once, keep skiing. If it’s a consistent issue, maybe your binding is saving your leg.
