most people have different settings for the heel and toe peice.
My toe is at 9, heel at 10, or something close.

I'm 5'5" and I weigh 110 and I'm using 8. Why are you that low?
If you're doing big jumps or any jumps at all, landing switch...you should be higher. I was at 5 before and I was busting out all the time.
How do you ski without falling out on every single hard landing?

you guys know that none of this means anything without your bootsole lengths right?

a smaller boot takes more torque to get it out of the binding. for example one person that weighs 160 lbs and is 5'10 might have a din of 7 with a 295mm bootsole length. the same exact person might have a din of 5 with a 340mm bootsole length.

you kids are all morons.

how much do you drop in jumps?
cliff jumpers need more din than you think to land.

your post contradicts itself. you say that the person with a smaller boot should have a higher din setting, but you say that a smaller boot needs more torque to be released. Therefore, you should really have a lower din setting if you have a smaller boot.

on my freeskis the bindings are at 17. i'm 6' 200 pounds.

Currently 8, but I have a long bootsole, and I pretty much just do rails.

typo. i meant a smaller booth takes less torque to get it out of the binding, therefore it needs a higher din setting to keep it in.

smaller boot = higher din.
