DIN in Powder

i weigh 170-175 i ride parka t 9 big mt at 10-11 ish, i do find digging for skis to be a pain, my dad got me some of those lanyard this the go around the heel piece and into your cuff that come out when you fall so you can find your sticks, sooooo helpfull, tobad they are obnoctious(sp) to redo everytime you fall have to get on a tram or gondy
 
you dont want to be adjusting your din every time you go hit pow do you? find a happy medium, and leave it. if you pop out excessively, then check forward pressure. if thats all good, bump the din up a little bit
 
ok but there is no type of table or something?

I mean like personaly I use the 3+ DIN adujstment like on the chart you take the level 1 skier of your weight and height and the mm and then you go up 3 instead of 2(Level 3) adjustement. My skis Never pop except on good moment and I was wondering if in powder there is something like that or it`s totally random
 
I see alot of people cranking ths shit out of there din and saying it feels sloppy or i keep pre releasing, check your foreward pressure before you turn the din up.
 
actually i refuse to ski waist deep powder stashes until I get my din changed. I usually let my friends get first tracks while i head back to the base to adjust them
 
depends on wich kind of terrain you'll be skiing, if your simply skiing powder, i think the same as park should do it. if you'r jumping off cliff crank tehm u^p a little bit more maybe add another 1on the duin level adjustment levle 5 out of 3
 
Don't change your din too much if the powder isn't that deep. If you do change it you could hit something under the pow and twist something.
 
there is a standard din table used in all ski shops, that takes into account your height, weight, skier type, and boot sole length (mm) like you mentioned. however, this is meant for the general skiing public, which means the dins are usually too low for guys who are charging it. in that case, just bump up the din by 1/2 or 1, and see if your skis stay on when you need them to. but no, there is only the one din table, not a pow specicfic one.

^^and billy, at least i worked in a shop and dont have to be chris's film bitch! ahahh
