Not interested in competing either here or on the slopes.

Looking to enjoy the company and the sights.

Phil's idea of a skiing game show..."Name that ski!"

I can ski at a 6 DIN.   >:(  Does that mean I'm smarter than a 5 year old but not as smart as a 6 year old??

Hmmm...yes I can ski with a DIN of 5 but very very cautiously....

At 156lbs....mine ar set at 7....keeps em on my feet for my style of skiing. When they start popping off in crud or around bumps,.....time to crank em up...but I'd only reccommend a very little at a time. They are for sure designed to release to prevent injury.....NO THYSELF!  :-\

AND...that 7 probably more accuraltely represents my mental age!  ::)
