So I have noticed recently my skis pop off very easily. My DIN was set pretty low because when I originally bought them I was a lot shorter/lighter than I am now.

I just set my DIN to 6, I am 5'10 and 135-140 Pounds.
Will this setting be appropriate?
My bindings are Salomon z12s from last year

Thanks for the answers!

Make sure that your bindings are properly set up (forward pressure etc.) before cranking up DIN. If everything else is set properly and you're still getting pre-release, then a higher DIN rating might be a good idea. Don't go up a lot though. For example if you're at DIN 7 now, go to 7.5 and see if that fixes the problem. If not, then 8 and so on.

You Americans and your crazy legal system. I think what I said was correct, but alright, I'll try to refrain from answering binding adjustment questions.

This guy didnt even post enough info for someone to DIN chart him, just seems unwise to be lending advice. OP, shop, go.
