As a skier for the last seven years, I have set my Tyrolia 350 diagonals like this. At the beginning of the season I set them on the beginning of the 2 setting. (the recommended for my size and weight is middle of the 3) While standing in my living room, I find that I can pull out of them in any direction with a medium effort. This insures that I'll end up chasing a ski a few yards instead of breaking something. (Preferable in my book anyday!) When I regain my confidence and "ski legs" I SLOWLY readjust the bindings as I find myself comming out of them a little too often. This of course requires keeping a screwdriver in the car, (or whatever else may be required in your case) and requires taking a little time out of your ski day. But in the long run, the end results have kept me skiing happily for seven years and I hope this will be the eighth!> as a side note, Don't go past the reccomended settings even if you are comming out on every run!(you need new bindings for you style of skiing) and also the last 2 years, I didn't even get to the "Recommended" setting before ski-season was over. Happy schussing! Dave Scott
