Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Last year I was given a formula for working out what your DIN setting should be. All i can remember is that it included the length of your boot. Does anyone have the full formula?

, No idea about formulas. Basically they're on your weight. 5 = 50 Kgms more or less. Add or remove a bit for skiing fast or slow. I always ski on 5 although my weight varies from 52 - 60 Kgms.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

There is a standard table that has been linked previously from other threads. I can't find it, but I'm sure some helpful person will come along soon and point you in the right direction.
What
easiski
says works most of the time if your height weight foot length etc is in proportion, but it would vary if you're short and heavy or tall and light, cos of the differences in pivotal forces involved.
