so i got new boots this year as my old ones dont fit anymore, iand my questions are, i moved the heel back as far as it can go, but when i click in the heel kind of pushes back then the binding pops up into place, i have marker jesters from last year. is that safe? also on my old boots i had lifters, adn none on my new ones so my toes kinda wiggles up and down mabye 2-3 MM, is there a way to adjust that? its kinda annoying. thanks for any help

I thought the jester had auto toe height adjustment.

your old boots had lifters?

Sounds like a serious forward pressure problem to the point where you actually have movement
Is the BSL of your new boots significantly different from your old ones, and did you make adjustments to your bindings yourself?

ya, my old boots were a nordica superchargers and were 25.5's i believe adn my new ones are 27.5.
i moved the heel back all the way that it can go back, and my new boots just fit in there, wil i need to have them remounted? and the only problem is i cnat find the forward pressure screw, just the din screw

its not always a screw for forward pressure, it can be just a little plate you lift in the heel to move it back and forth and you should see an indicatopr sumwhere that shows where the forward pressure should be at...its not much help cuz ive neveer worked on the jesters but it sounds like you deff should take into a shop ..even if the guys says its fine well then you kno for sure and wont smash yourself this winter..

you need a remount.  25 to 27 is too big of a jump.
