Ski Binding Din Calculator · Description
This app can calculate your recommended ski binding release tension (DIN) based on age, height, weight, skier type*, and boot sole length**. It can accommodate measurements provided in either metric or standard units.
The DIN setting determines the safest release tension setting for your bindings, given your skier details. This assumes that your bindings are still indemnified by the manufacturer and are properly adjusted and tested by a certified technician to the manufacturer's specifications.
*Skier type 1-: skiers who desire release/retension settings lower than type 1.
*Skier type 1: cautious beginner, prefers a lighter release tension - includes first time skiers who are uncertain of their binding preferences.
*Skier type 2: between type 1 and 2, prefers moderate terrain and speeds.
*Skier type 3: aggressive expert, prefers a higher release tension.
*Skier type 3+: skiers who desire release/retension settings higher than type 3.
**Boot sole length can be found stamped on the heel lug of most boots. It typically ranges from 195mm to 365mm (mondo size 14.5 to 32.5). If it is not listed, boot sole length can be measured by taking the distance from the front edge of the toe lug to the back edge of the heel lug carefully and accurately.
This app is intended for educational purposes only, and under no circumstance should you adjust your bindings using the information provided. Always see a certified technician for any binding work to ensure your equipment is safe to use.
The settings are calculated using the 2016/17 Marker DIN chart.
