DIN Chart - Atomic - Where can I find one?

Farty; I have welded my bindings shut with the boots in. I now buckle up my boots andthe skiis are "already-on" (tm) time saving and they never come off when I fall (as if!) Dick Buek claimed he just screwed his boots to the skis - no bindings at all. And he won several World Cup level downhills ... Of course his all-metal knee, with angle lock, probably helped some. |

DIN Chart - Atomic - Where can I find one?

... Ivan Rafn wrote: "Christopher Luke" Anyone know where I can find a DIN chart for my Atomic 6.14 bindings? You can have a copy of mine. DIN is supposed to be a universal standard, so the make of the bindings shouldn't matter. Personally, I'd advise against taking the advice of anyone clueless enough to post a binary to a non-binary usenet group. In any case, the chart is pretty much worthless without the instructions. My other piece of advice is to get ahold of a DIN chart (lal's link http://www.terrymorse.com/ski/din.html is pretty good) and calculate your DIN. Remember it! Everybody should know their DIN, especially if they ever rent skis. But there's more to adjusting a binding than just setting the DIN to the number on the indicator. The important part is *testing* the binding at the calculated DIN setting to make sure it releases the way it's supposed to. Since it's very unlikely that you have the test equipment in your garage, the easiest thing to do is to take your skis to a shop where they have the test equipment to do it right. Expensive? Not compared to a tib-fib fracture or a torn ACL. -- //-Walt // Seerch-a zee veb: // http://www.google.com/advanced_search?hl=xx-bork Sorry, I can see I did wrong answering a guy asking for help, without consulting you first. I didn't know you where the the only one with right answers, - my fault! If you took the time to look at the chart before saging it, you would have noticed that it is in fact the same chart that appears on terry's page. I am no NG admin, and had no idea bin's didn't attach. I was just trying to help a fellov skier, and can easily do without your stomach acid blurps. Well, I can see Christopher was helped, and thats reward enogh for me. IMHO this board has been redundant all summer. If you like it that way, keep herassing those that tries to be serious and helpfull. Maybe you would be better off with a NG just for yourself and your friends, where you all can make silly comments day long? Why don't you open priv.skiing.alpine, then? |

(BTW, your original post still hasn't shown up on the server I use (News.CIS.DFN.DE,) possibly because the server won't accept posts with a bin file attached foor non-binary groups?

Anyone who dosn't checks his sources I regard as non-trustworthy! As for being a newbee, I hardly qualify, as I am an IT Consultant for living (and is well living), and has been so for more than 25 years. I am sorry I, apparently, offended "YOUR" ng, by attaching a bin, in an effort to try to help a fellov skier. It might be different from Europe to US, but generally advices are well received, the more frendly the advice, the more welcome it is. Use a more friendly tone, and receivers may understand you are leading them, not trying to offend them. May I advice you not to adopt the french attitude - we ourself are enogh, we know better, don't advice us, we will tell you (and offend you the best we can as we go) -, as it may push off new members of what could be a great ng. An international skiing ng could be a great way of exchanging experiences between continents, don't you agree? LT, thanks for drawing my attention to the fact that I was posting in a non bin group. The faq of your ng host states that it removes articles containing bin's. You can have a copy of mine. DIN is supposed to be a universal standard, so the make of the bindings shouldn't matter. BTW how did you manage to get the snip from my original posting ? Who are you helping TRB? |
