Boot moving in bindings

My boots been moving around in my px12. If I lift my ski off the ground and spin it left/right I can feel the boot moving a bit. As of recent I've noticing it's also lifting up/down a bit.

The boots are dabello kryptons. The boot soles have worn down a bit (front/black are a bit rounded from walking). Is this likely a forward pressure on the binding problem? And can the sole be fixed up by a shop or am I likely going to need new bindings?

Who set up your bindings?
It sounds like your bindings werent adjusted for your boot by a shop tech. You probably wont have to buy new bindings but I would bring it into a shop and have them take a loot at it for you. They'll make the proper adjustments for you.

Sounds like you might need to adjust the forward pressure to compensate for the wear to your boot. Bring them to a shop to have them tested/adjusted.

They were fine to begin with and have 80+ days on them so it's definitely progressed into this rather than being an issue with the initial setup. I'll take it into a shop hopefully it doesn't take too long / can get adjusted for.

Thanks for the replies

how much walking around do you do in your boots?
it sounds as though you might have worn down the soles to the point where they're not at din height anymore.

I had this problem last season..

unfortunately you can only do so much to the forward pressure if the boots are worn to much you are going to keep being loose

I had to buy new boots as i kept pre releasing alot due to it.
