alright i know people dont like these questions about bindings cuz of the whole injury thing
but my skis prerelease on rails and sometimes just cruising and they are as tight on my boots as they will go while still being able to step in.
din is at 9.5 im 5' 9 and 178ish
my brake is a little bent and doesnt always go down when i release but i dont see how that would affect releasing!
any one have some troubleshooting things to look at??? my knowledge on bindings doesnt exist yet help me out.

Maybe back off on forward pressure? Not sure if it's possible to have so much forward pressure that you prerelease. Besides that, take them to a shop and have them bench tested. The springs might be worn out, and you might need new bindings.

most likely, you have too much forward pressure. take them to a shop so they are adjusted correctly

new boots maybe... if they dont fit ur bindings or are worn down from parkinlot walking that could be a problem

making them as tight as they will go on your boots can cause them to prerelease more....you have way too much forward pressure it sounds like so your boots want to pop out because they're jammed in so tight. back off on the forward pressure and set it right on and they should be fine

BINGO!!
what bindings? how old are they? what boots? whats your boot sole length? your forward pressure is probably pushing your boot out of the binding. Its like a girl who wears her jeans too tight, muffin top!
Take em to a shop and get em checked. Do not hesitate, dont ski on them till they are fixed.
Imagine screaming mach lobster down a tree lined run, and you pop out, then fly into some spruce tree's... you're dead son.
think about it.
