10 DIAMIR Service Manual for specialist dealers
5.3 Adjustment of the binding to the person
5.3.1 Determine the DIN value (according to ISO 11088:2006)
The DIN value has to be set according to the personal data of the skier in order to get the correct lateral and forward release, therefore
body weight, height, age, boot sole length and type of skier (classification see below) has to be used correctly.
Classification type of skier
Skier type 1: Cautious skiing on smooth slopes of gentle to moderate pitch. This type also applies to entry level skiers uncertain of
their classification. Skiers who designate themselves as type 1 receive lower than average release/retention settings. This corresponds
to an increased risk of inadvertent binding release, in order to gain increase capacity for release in the event of a fall.
Skier type 2: Skier not classified in type 1 or 3.
Skier type 3: Fast, aggressive skiing on slopes of moderate to steep pitch. Skiers who designate themselves as type 3 receive higher
than average release/retention settings. This corresponds to decreased capacity for release in the event of fall, in order to gain a
decreased risk of inadvertent binding release.
Determine the code of the skier according to Table 2:
1. Find the line of the skier’s weight in the first column and the skier’s height in the second column. If these parameters are in the
same line, choose the skier code of this line. If the parameters of weight and height are in different lines, choose the skier code on
the line above.
2. This skier code corresponds to type 1 skiers. For type 2 skiers, go down one line and for type 3 skiers go down two lines.
3. For skiers older than 50 years go up one line.
Determine DIN value according to Table 3:
1. Choose the according boot sole length in mm.
2. The intersection between «skier code»/«length of the boot sole» indicates the settings.
3. If the box of the intersection is empty, choose the value of the next box to the right on the same line.
Example determination of the DIN value
Parameter skier Determination of the DIN value
Body weight: 77 kg According to Table 2 → Code K
Height: 182 cm According to Table 2 → Code L
The upper line above is determinant → Code K
Type of skier: 2 For type 2 skiers, go down one line → Code L
Age: 28 years Younger than 50 years → Stay on Code L
Boot sole length: 285 mm
Table 3: Take DIN value of the intersection Code L and boot sole length (column 3). → DIN value 7
