Ski Diva Extraordinaire
I knew that it was time to move from DIN settings for a level 1 skier when my skis started falling off when I executed a tight turn.
Now I am skiing more intense blues and starting to get onto the blacks. And the conditions are thickening up and I am driving my skis, skiing more aggressively, as a result (this at the suggestion of my ski instructor, and it's been working).
It was bad enough when my bindings released prematurely when I was going at a relatively slow speed on a green slope.
It would be catastrophic if they did this while I was doing a string of fast short radius turns down a steep slope on fast snow.
I don't think it's a good idea to wait until I am overskiing my bindings, but I'm not sure at what point it will be a good idea to have my ski guys crank the DIN up.
