Campy Zonda Skewers - Secure??

I recently purchased a set of Campy Zonda wheels and am concerned about the skewers. When I lock them down they don't seem very secure. They don't seem to "lock" into place. The feel is kind of spongy. Has anybody else seen this? Am I doing anything wrong?

Thanks, George

You do know that you can turn the nut on the end to tighten them. But you did know that Right!!

Yep. My Bontragers work just fine on my Race wheels. When you tighten them up the clamp feels very secure, locking in place. The Campys almost back off a little.
