    A lot of tele wankers complain of something not feeling right when they go from soft boots/ less active bindings to a stiffer/active set-up. You'll get used to it or better yet get some switchbacks.

    Did you play around with the activity setting? It should ski about the same as your HH's at the same activity setting.

    Sexy bindings but waaay over-rated IMO.
