    Look Bindings - Adjusting Heel Piece - Forward Pressure?

    I got my Little Big Fats back from warranty and re-mounted my Look Pivot Jib bindings.

    The one thing I am confused about is how far forward (forward pressure is the term, correct? - JONG!) do I adjust the heel piece in relationship to the boot heel.

    You can see on my boot heel where the "prongs" on the look binding heel piece have made a slight impression into the boot heel. I have adjusted the binding so the "prongs" hit in this same spot again.

    So what is the correct way to adjust these?

    Adjust rear screw until screw is flush with the bottom of the scooped out indent when boot is in binding.
    that is correct forward pressure.

    Question JONG resurrects thread!

    Just wanted to reconfirm: Flush with the indent above the screw or below the screw, or maybe even right in between the two?

    it should be flush with the bottom of the semi-circle indent above the screw

    afterwards, click the boot in and out a couple of times to make sure the screw is indeed flush with the indent above the screw.
