you really should have at least a 14 DIN if not an 18 DIN Binding (not that you're going to be riding at that - but it's not a good idea to have your binding on the max DIN setting).

im 6'1 180 pounds and have my din at 9 for park and 12 for pow, its not a good idea to have your din set to the max of 1 away from the max the din will go up, i have dynastar px12 for park look at those, they are solid, a little heavy but ive never had a problem with them and they have a pad thing to absorb impact built in

Boot sole length is a big factor as well. The bigger the BSL the higher the DIN. But those binders might be a little less than you need. You never want to max out a DIN and you would probably be close to it so if you want some room to increase it you will want some 12 or 14 DINs. I would suggest 14 if you are aggressive and want something to last.
