Every singe time i try a 270 onto a hop on, my ski ALWAYS comes off. My dins are set to 8, and the only time they come off is when i 270 on, they even fall off when i land perfectly on the rail. How can i stop this from happening

Cranking the DIN to 9, how tall/heavy are you?

8 is more than enough. i think the forward pressure or whatever its called on your heal piece is too low. most heel pieces have an indicator. you heel piece should move back just slightly when you clip in. i think yours is too far back, needs to be moved forward alitle

What is the max din setting on your binding? If it is 8 then turn them down a bit.

Make sure your forward pressure is correct, that could possibly be contributing to it.

Take them to a shop, give them to a tech, problem fixed. The axials have sensitive AFD's if your boots are worn at all, had the same problem, ended up buying new bindings. As well forward pressure is much more important than DIN when keeping your boots in the bidnings.

Those have a max din of 14, so you dont have them. However if you have the same binding with lesser DIN, you need to check the forward pressure. To do this:
Put boot into binding
Behind the boner piece is a little window. With the boot in the binding through this window you should see half black and half colored (either white or yellow).
If it is not half/half take it to a shop so they can fix it.

This was happening to me, check the heel piece of your bindings. If there is wear marks on the outermost edges, it meant they are to long for your boots,then you can crank the healpiece forward a little to fit your boots tighter. This is probably not your problem though.

this was happening to me for a while (for example http://vimeo.com/32947769--dont be hatin, i know i suck)

what was happening was that i was focused so much on hucking hard that i would pop as much. it helps me to think of a 180 and then whip around the extra 90 with my legs. maybe not the best way...but it may help
