Will my bindings be screwy?

So I have a pair of Marker Griffons that have the heel piece slid all the way forward to fit my boot, could this cause a problem?

So my I set my bindings to my new boots and they fit right at the end of the heel piece slide... And now they won't adjust, they don't seem to catch, any suggestions?

when the boot is clicked in, is the wormscrew at the back flush with the housing?

Horseshoes and hand grenades.

Forward pressure is your friend.

is it sticking out or receding into the housing? if it's sticking out you're out of luck, if it's tucked in just tighten the screw until it's flush

It's sticking out a bit, soooo... what does that mean?  And don't they sticking out a little bit to start with?

it means your forward pressure is too tight and if the binding is at the back of the track then it means your boots are too big. you need to remount either the heel or toe

I just got smaller boots and adjusted them accordingly, lemme try and get pics of what it looks like so it's easier to show you.
