As noted in the comments below, I also have a pair of 5.10 Impacts and
didn't/don't feel like they make any difference in terms of a controllable
interface.. The pedal isn't offering any grip beyond the magnetic attachment
of cleat/pedal interface… hence the excellent and fully-free float, which is
in my opinion too fully-free-floating for the application of aggressive trail
riding.
Maybe just the wrong tester as you noted although I don't know that bearing
quality or the lack of a firm connection with the pedals are generally
considered personal preference.
It's a very cool, interesting, and unique concept and as I noted in the review
I would love to try future updates of the product as I would guess there will
be similar constructive feedback from other testers/reviewers.
