Does Anybody else not like the loose feeling in the heel of look pivots?

Im not sure the mushy feeling you get from so much travel in look pivots is necessarily a good thing. Having a more rigid heel feels like the ski is more connected.
Im def gonna try tyrolia attacks on my next set of skis

Sounds like your forward pressure is not correctly adjusted.

I've never experienced loose heels while skiing with pivots, feels the same as markers and non-pivot look bindings I've used in the past.

the trick is to turn the screw on the back until the steez level is at 18

Yeah something's probably not right. I don't have that loose feeling in the heel. Or maybe I've just been on pivots for so long that I forget what a 100% rigid heel is supposed to feel like.

I dunno man I stuck with pivots because of how solid my first pair felt. Had a pair of some kinda Rossi bindings (not fks) and I could feel a tiny bit of slop in them even with correct DIN and forward pressure settings. Pivots felt super solid by comparison
