Hi Daniel, Checking back in now that we have more info. On paper, they have increased the forward lean by 1.5 degrees, from 14 to 15.5, compared to the Zero g Tour Pro. I will say in practice, the two feel almost identical angle-wise on foot. Shoot us an email at help@skimo.co if you would like to dive further in

Hey Isaac, Yes, the 40 mm plates will work with those.
Hey Mathew, Two things to look at here. The brakes on this, and most other bindings, can add friction when stepping into the heel. Removing them would reduce the friction. Additionally, swapping to a different U spring with a lower vertical release value would reduce the force required for step-in (and also lower your vertical release). If you'd like to go that route, you will want the  Superlite 175 Z6 U Springs x2.

Hey Kyle, we will not be restocking them again as they are out of production. The Shift 2 brakes do work on the Shift 1, though.
Hi Geoffrey G, Unless you are sized super tight on your Peaks length wise, I would recommend the 24.5/25 in the F1 RS
