Binding position, toe to heel?

I'm a little confused as to why if I set the angle of the binding equally in the binding plate my toes would be a lot closer to the toe edge than my heels would be to my heel edge.

Is it right to get the angle you want then just shuffle the whole binging back to center it on the board?

Is this this something unique to using CWB bindings with LF board?

Here is how I am riding it now, angle set then moved back along the plate to center the binding.

I have the same problem with my Zeus bindings. They almost don't work the way I set up my bindings. I haven't had that problem with any other bindings.

One would think they would be centered on the board when the plate is centered. I set mine up to be a weighted more over my toes as I have a more difficult time edging toeside than heelside. I figure it gives me a little extra leverage to get on the toeside gas.

Same thing with the Zues on a Transcend board.

Had the same problem, just get the angle you want then slide them until they are centered

I've never thought of that Big Heavy. How does that affect the way the rail sits in the water. Do you ever dig rail if you're not careful?

I wonder if the next size down bindings are the same... Maybe the footbeds are just lengthened in the toe and the plates all attach in the same place regardless of the size. Would be interesting to compare 2 different sizes next to each other.
