SFBv420.0maybe take the thingys to a professional
who knows what thingies go where to which parameters
rubberpantaloonsYeah thats what you pay for when you get attacks, pretty much gotta adjust those afds after/before you ski everytime, just put your boot into the skis and pull the cuff back into like a wheelie with your hands and use a screwdriver to out the afd up a little bit, just enough that a business card can fit with a little bit of resistance. Pain in the ass for the most part but if you dont your gonna have some really fucking gnarly ejects if you dont. Get pivots if you have the option
backyardcrackeryeah, i was worried it was something i might just have to deal with because of the like $230 price point.
was going to get pivots this season, but i'm gonna have to ride these out and get new sticks/ bindings next season instead cuz of where i am financially.
bob the builder in the park w all my tools ig
rubberpantaloonsDont stress, once u figure it out its like a 2 minute process after skiing, sometimes id forget to do it at home and be clipped into my skis fucking with the afd lmao. Pivots are def worth the extra 30 bucks but attacks are good too with the exception of that issue
awfulskierWould loctite be an option?

Pipe_MunkyGet your hands on some blue thread locking compound (NOT RED OR CLEAR). Liquid would be best and put it on the threads of the AFD adjustment screw. This will prevent it from moving.
Do not use red or clear as those are made for permanent application and you will not be able to adjust your AFD even if you wanted to.

backyardcrackeralready did, i was told to just tighten it and hope for the best. that hasn't worked out seeing as i've had to bring a screwdriver with me on multiple trips to the slopes

bbfunnymanMy local shop has stopped selling Attacks sure to their unreliable and poorly designed AFD. I was shocked when they showed me the top toe lug shelf on the Attack2 13s, there is nothing there to hold your boot.
I strongly believe that if you have to use glue or self adjust your bindings, that they are to broken to continuing using. I had a friend nearly die due to a forward pressure issue on a binding a year ago when it ejected in the fall line at 45+ mph at the last roller of a groomer.
I went with STH 13s. Good luck.

animatorA shop told you to tighten it yourself rather than having a certified technician do it? I find that sort of hard to believe
finderThe thread locker I use for my quiver killers is bright red. It was my understanding that red is for something that has to thread in and out, where blue was more pasty and permanent. The tow hitch I installed on my car came with blue thread locker.
