A GUIDE FOR CALCULATING THE RELEASE (DIN) SETTING
FOR A SET OF SKI BINDINGS

STEP 3 - FIND WHAT YOUR ADJUSTED SKIER CODE SHOULD BE

The third step in the process is to find what your adjusted skier code should be. The adjusted skier code is determined as a function of your initial (unadjusted) skier code, your age and your ability as a skier (from step 1).

  1. First of all you should find your Skier Code from Step 2 by tracing along the first row of the table shown below.
  2. Next locate your Age and then your Skier Ability (from Step 1) in the left hand column of the table shown below.
  3. The next step is to locate your Adjusted Skier Code by finding the letter where the column for your Skier Code from Step 2 and the row of your Age & Type of Skier cross.
  4. Make a note of what your Adjusted Skier Code is and then proceed to the final step, step 4.
