Bag it. Hit up a high dive this summer and dial with style. Next season on a pow day go for it in a fluffy landing and adjust the bondingsings between 7.5 and 8.5
Somewhere around there.

For safety reasons when skiing park, big mountain, whatever - you actually want your DIN jacked as high as the bindings will go. Provided you are drinking enough calcium those things will not hurt you if they don't come off.

What am I doing wrong ?

sometimes when I spin I lose a ski during the initiation of the spin , typically always the same ski (left) , after takeoff , not catching in the snow.... Def got pop

185/200 lbs , 6’1 attak13s 10din, 11 seems to solve but when I eat shit it’s a rough release , had multiple minor groin pulls, knee strains, ankle shin all of it

You may start spinning to early off the lip before you're actually in the air I assume. I have attack 13s and i think mine are probably set to 10 and I'm 5'6" and 130lbs but usually send bigger shit. However my attacks are kinda fucky atm cause one ski has been plagued with early releases and the forward pressures arent the same when I'm clicked in, so kinda just made the toe height correct and upped the din.





As for OP congrats on your first backie, now send a double, you wont.

YEeee!!! Sick! Stoked for ya. I would say now that you got em dialed you might want to ramp the height up a little just to put some distance in between you and any chance of a tip catch.

How'd they feel?
