Your setup looks fine man. If you are ofter on toeside and are too often catching the heelside edge and falling backwards then you have got a real problem that you have to workaround. The good news is that I do not have any reason to believe it is related to your equipment or the setup. That will save you $$! Yeah, magnetraction makes it a little grabbier, but you should be able to get used to it. Let's focus on technique. I think the biggest cause of this problem is bowing while in toeside stance. If you are bending at the waist then you are asking for trouble since it moves your balance around too much and creates too much movement and instability.I will re-post this from one of the other threads here:

Here are some tips for how to take a perfect toeside stance:1) Take a natural stance on your board. Slightly bend your knees and keep your back straight. Stay in alignment to your stance. Do not twist your body. Only turn your head to look in the direction of travel.2) Flex your ankles, lowering your knees and push your hips slowly forward.3) The board tipping should occur naturally. Do not force it. Do not do the “Michael Jackson”. Your stance over the toe edge should not put you off balance.On steep slopes, do not overdo the board angulation. That will only increase the possibility of toe drag which could be disastrous.
You think that could be it for you?
