Just curious on how everyone would classify themselves.
Type I
Type I
- Ski conservatively.
- Prefer lower speeds.
- Prefer easy, moderate slopes.
- Favor lower than average release/retention settings. This corresponds to an increased risk of inadvertent binding release in order to gain increased releasability in a fall.
- Type I settings apply to entry level skiers uncertain of their classification.
- Ski moderately.
- Prefer a variety of speeds.
- Ski on varied terrain, including most difficult trails.
- Are all skiers who do not meet all the descriptions of Type I or Type III.
- Ski aggressively.
- Normally higher speeds.
- Prefer more difficult, varied terrain.
- Favor higher than average release/retention settings. This corresponds to a decreased releasability in a fall in order to gain a decreased risk of inadvertent binding release.
