Tyrolia attack problems

I have skied the tyrolia attack 13s for a season now and im a little concerned cause when the heel piece is locked down you can hear a random sound, like some part from the binding was loose. Also the the heel lever moves a bit. My boots have recently released from the bindings a couple times while buttering and I have loosed some of my trust to the bindings, but im not sure if the problem is real or is it just all in my head. Has anyone had similar problems and should I be worried?

As this is part of the equation that keeps you on your skis, don't gamble with it. The only way to know for sure is to take them into a shop along with your boots and have the shop perform a release check.

They can see your binding, we can't. They'll be able to see what is going on and figure out what to do next for you.

I own a pair of 13s as well, and worked as a ski tech untill this september working with attacks alot. the heel lever moving a little bit is part of its design, its kindof like a double action lever, the lever itself moves independantly from the part that clamps your heel in. Basically just needs less leverage from you to push it down making it easier to open the binding. I would say that the noise youre hearing is the lever itself rattling a bit. Happens with mine and my friends who ride the binding.

Hope that helps but you can always bring the skis and boots to a shop for a test.
