8 for you is a level III, III+ would be 9.5.

Wow, looks like the shop that did my thought I lied about my weight or my skiing ability.... That chart looks to be based on a level I skier
Read the directions at the bottom...
The chart is for a level 1 skier, the directions tell you how to account for that.

Thanks for the din charts. I've been looking for one of those.

They use, weight, height, age, BSL, and skier code to determine the din setting.
As far as my shop is concerned, III+ does not exist. The owners do not allow us to set skis like that.

need to up my DIN.. several falls could have been averted today if my bindings didn't release too soon. totally not my fault, it was the bindings!
I should have had mine adjusted. I pre-released at least three times in Squaw's deep snow and in interesting locations. Once at the top of Shirley Bowl and once at the beginning of Lakeview. The latter required a 10 minute recon mission.

powder straps!
I don't know much about bindings, but I suppose you should check the boot sole length binding adjustment too. It might not be the DIN. Do you know if you released front or rear?

I will tell a person what a III+ din would be for a person, but that ski will not be leaving the shop with a DIN over III. What happens outside the doors I have no control over.
