How tight should the base plate and straps of the EA universal binding be adjusted?
When adjusting the base plate and straps of the EA universal binding, it's important to leave a lengthwise space of 0.5-1 cm between the toe of the shoe and the toe block of the binding. The stiffness of the shoe should also be taken into consideration when adjusting the binding. If the shoe is stiffer, the binding adjustment should be looser, while a more flexible shoe can be adjusted to a tighter setting. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper adjustment.
