My skis are sitting on the floor and i'm trying to decide what I should set them at. I have them at 7 right now. Im about 120lbs and I shred the 'gnar. If you could post what your din is set at and how much you weigh it would give me a good refrence to get an idea of what I should put em at.
thanks.

Even if you have really small feet, 7 is on the high side for 120 lbs....

Okay thanks.. they put them at 6 at the shop by the way.
oh and I noticed the tech put the heel pieces at 5 and a half, is there some reason to have the heel piece lower? Or should they usually be the same?
thanks again..

actually, if you check your receipt from the shop tech, it will probably say that he had to set the heels a little lower becase the springs were testing high when set at 6.

i suppose asking the shop tech about it would be too much bother...

if you wana tear something then go ahead keep em at 7

aslong as u have decent bindings (i sware by look/rossi) there should be no reason to din up that much, im 160 and boot size 314mm, by the book, type three, i should din at 7/7.5 and thats what i keep it, i dont have issues comin out
