I believe there have been some issues with the most recent batches of NNN-BC bindings from my experience and what I heard at Neptune. I have them on two sets of skis and the most recently mounted pair is giving me a lot of trouble fully locking in the toe bar but they seem to be breaking in with use.
Oh, interesting... and great to hear, also in same boat, they seem to be loosening up.
One binding in particular was really stiff. I feel bad, a friend went out with me and they decided to flip back a ways in, stepped out of bindings to walk down steeps, and couldn't get one boot to rebind, so ended up walking out in deep snow, not awesome. I'm sure there was some ice in the toe bar, but looked at the binding and it took a considerable force to snap down.
I ended up remounting this pair and that helped a lot, although they had a noticeable gap and volcanoes. These were my first binding mount last year, and basically did everything you shouldn't: fastened them with the camber squashed down against a flat surface, didn't work the screws through holes, no clamp to hold binding to skis, used a drill AND a non pozi driver, yikes.
