clipless pedals

Nope, all is well. That's called "float" and if too extreme can be adjusted. My guess is that it is a new feeling to you, you'll get used to it.

Thanks for the reply, but it is not the float that I am referring to. The float is the side to side movement. Basically, what I am asking is, should all of my weight be resting only on the small area that actually clips into the shoe, or should my shoe also be resting on the remaining part of the pedal.
Currently, I can pronate and supinate my foot while I am clipped in. Float is just turning your foot side to side. Thanks

Are they just not tight enough. I get much more play in my SPD's when they aren't tight enough.

Does the pedal move with your foot as well? I.e. when you pronate/supinate, does the pedal move with the shoe or not? If not, then perhaps the cleats are not attached to the shoes tight enough.
Also, what kind of pedals are they?

If you are pronating your foot you may consider some medial arch support to prevent that excessive motion and prevent future problems such as knee pain, numbness of foot, and plantar neuritis which develops from to much pressure to the metatarsal head/ball of the foot area. Your cleat should fit completely in the pedal.

I second the question: what pedals are you riding?

I just switched to some TIME Atac (mtb pedals) and I get float up and down...so i can pronate a sup. if I want...i like that
