Aside for the DIN factors used to set bindings, one factor that makes a difference is skiing style (rated to level but more towards strength and speed of application).
As an example two skiers at the same level, BSL, Ski, Binding etc., the difference is wt one is 180lbs, one is 130lbs. The lighter skier has a higher DIN setting to avoid pre release. The difference is smoothness vs quickness of impulse.
For the record I’m taking the Zsa Zsa Gabor approach and I’ll be 49 for a while. Just hope
I’m smart enough to know when I need to age up before I break anything.
