Just moved to the North Shore and am looking for a new ski shop. Previously I used Ski Stop in Canton/Westwood and I was very happy with their service (awesome boot fitters), but it is way too far from my new location. Live along 1/1A closer to the NH seacoast than to Boston so looking for...

I have a question about DIN settings and binding DIN ranges. When I have bindings mounted I will have them set according to the manufacturer chart setting - 8.5 in my case. Then I will ski them and if I have prerelease issues, adjust them upwards incrementally by .5 and ski them again until...
