Cranking it up

My din setting goes from a 2-9, i know that is pitiful but i didnt ask for those bindings i got as a gift. So my question is if the din is currently at 5 and that is considered level 2, and i want to crank it up to a level three (so that I can still give it some impact and not come out but the binding release me when needed), what should i crank the DIN setting up to?.

It depends on your size and weight and how aggressively you ski. If your over 130-140 lbs and ski aggressively I would just crank it all the way.

i usually ride a level 4 or 5, just because i'd rather lose my skis and look stupid than have my legs fall off

I cant go to the shop since my dad won't let me crank it up since my bro wasnt allowed at my age. Stupid reason huh!!!!!!
