Din Setting Calculator

How to Use the DIN Setting Calculator

Step 1: Input Skier’s Information

Begin by entering the required information about the skier into the calculator’s input fields. This information is crucial to determining the appropriate DIN setting.

• Skier Weight (kg): Enter the skier’s weight in kilograms. This value must be between 10 and 150 kg.
• Skier Height (cm): Input the skier’s height in centimeters. Ensure the height is between 100 and 220 cm.
• Skier Age: Provide the skier’s age, which should be between 1 and 120 years.
• Boot Sole Length (mm): Measure and enter the boot sole length in millimeters, ensuring it falls between 200 and 400 mm.
• Skier Type: Select the skier type from the list provided. Options include:
  • Type I (Cautious)
  • Type II (Moderate)
  • Type III (Aggressive)

Step 2: Review Calculated DIN Settings

Once all the necessary inputs have been provided, the calculator will process the information to suggest appropriate DIN settings. Below is a breakdown of the calculated fields:

• DIN Setting (Lower): This value is determined by the skier’s weight and ranges according to pre-defined brackets.
• DIN Setting (Upper): Adjusted from the lower DIN setting based on the skier type. Type III increases the value by 1, while Type I decreases it by 1.
• Age Adjusted DIN: The DIN setting is further adjusted if the skier is younger than 9 or older than 50, reducing the value by 15%.
• Final Recommended DIN Setting: This is the final DIN recommendation considering the boot sole length. It ensures the DIN setting remains within safe limits for the length of the boot sole.

Step 3: Application of DIN Setting

Utilize the final recommended DIN setting obtained from the calculator to adjust your ski bindings accordingly. This ensures that the bindings release correctly based on the input characteristics, optimizing safety and performance on the slopes.

Always double-check and verify the settings with a professional to ensure accuracy and safety.
