Does anyone have a chart of the din settings for skis so that we can prepare in advance and rather than having to give away all our secrets, just tell them what to set the skis at.Went shopping for ski gear yesterday with Elaine as she's a skiing newbie this year - got the jacket and she can use my spare pair of sallopettes... result.

Judith,I got a new jacket from TK Maxx last weekend, very reasonable price!
I also went to the McArthur Glen outlet centre at Ashford yesterday, got my girls all kitted out, there is 3 shops with loads of good gear at knock down prices!

re: DIN Settings for skis
This scale - otherwise known as the Deutsche Industrie Norm - is standardised across all makes of bindings. The appropriate setting depends on your weight, boot size, height and level of skiing. Any injuries should also be taken into account.
Front and rear bindings tend to be set on the same number and both skis are usually set the same. Injuries may affect these.
As a guideline the following chart can be used:
ADULT DIN CHART (UNDER 50)
Weight Kg 35 40 45 50 60 65 70 80 ...

re: DIN Settings for skis
I note that the chart given is for under fifties..... what about over fifties who weigh a little more than 80kg?
