most likely the bindings being mounted improperly, or the dins are not set high enough. More than likely your dins are the issue I'm assuming. If your over 120 pounds id recommend not skiing a junior binding such as squares, look px21's or whatever the fuck they are called, or tyrolia's 11's.

ya man save yourself a lot of headaches and broken brakes and get a pair of pivots if you can afford em. Theyll last you forever if you take good care of em. Id get the 14 pivots rather than settling for the 12's

Tbh sounds more like a forward pressure issue. I'd take them in with your boots and have them checked if your popping out mid ollie

or just quit skiing that's a foolproof way to stop popping out

I guess it's just about how you balance your weight in the nollie.
All of last season I couldn't lean into my noses whatsoever without popping out, and since I have not only turned up the dins a wee bit but also changed how I lean into them in the first place.

Anyone know what a good din is like not so much that my legs will break but good enough to survive park.

I got my skiis tuned lately and they fucking set the dins at 6 and it pissed me off cause they'd pop off just doing the skiier dan lift up the ski thing

The people saying it's the quality of your bindings or your DIN are probably wrong. It's most likely your forward pressure. Don't go crank up your DINs or but different bindings before you get your current bindings set up correctly with a safe DIN. Go from there.

They should probably be at 7ish assuming an average bsl. Your forward pressure probably isn't right. What binding? What was your process when you set them to 10? Set it and forget it?
