2 questions. One what is the difference between stepping your foot in and it clicking up a little, with pulling the latch all the way up? Does that have to do with release. Also, what do you guys think about using these for chute skiing in the wasatch. Never released from these bindings but I'm anticipating a nasty fall one day because you never know just exactly how these will work in a given situation given ski flex. What are thoughts

When you pull the latch all the way up, the binding REALLY locks onto your toes...i mean takes A LOT to get them to come off, almost dangerously so. 1 or 2 clicks means they can still release but stay on your toes for touring up, but come off if you need them to like in an avalanche. Be careful, if you lock these on for the way down, they will stay on, a nice bonus for skiing in NO fall and don't want to lose a ski terrain!
