"Apparently the multi-way cleats are supposed to come unclipped if you pull upwards, which is what I do with my forward foot when I skidstop. Thats not weird is it?"
Edited: They release by twisting your heel 'either' left OR right whereas the non-multi cleats only realease outwards (I think, I have always used the multis). They don't realease 'upwards'.
Well paint me orange and call me charlie.. you can 'sort of' release upwards but it seems you need to twist your heel as well:

Sh1t, now I'm not sure which cleats I have. I always assumed Shimano specced new pedals with the multis but this might not be the case. The cleats with the shoes might actually be black (they are scuffed silver so hard to tell).
