Does anyone know how the din is compared to a look/rossi binding?eg. I rode Saomon S912s and Look px12s...the salomons i had set at 10 but for the looks 7 was adequite enough,i had a friend who had "normal" markers and is the same size as me, and needed the din cranked to 12 before the shit would stay onbut yeah is the din strength similar to old markers or is it in a new range (same a salomon, look)?

The din is a measure that is constant through the entire industry. It is based on skier weight, ability and most affected by the length of ones boot sole. a larger boot requires a lower din than a smaller boot to release properly. With that said rather than cranking the DIN you can adjust the forward pressure a bit to create a tighter fit. By raising the Din you only make sure that the boot will not release properly. A higher Din binding will have stiffer springs allowing for a more accurate release. if you are over the age of 12 look for a 14 DIN.
