Standard Practice for Selection of Release Torque Values for Alpine Ski Bindings
STANDARD published on 1.1.2019
Why Redline?
A PDF redline is a quick and easy way to compare all of the changes between the current, active standard and the previous version.
With a redline you'll immediately see:
Save Time and Trouble!
With a Redline you no longer have to spend time trying to determine what has changed in the new standard! Redlines save you time and ensure you see what the changes are to the standard.
Price
When you select the "Active + Redline" option you get both documents! Best of all, the cost of an Active + Redline is only slightly more than buying the Active Standard by itself.

This practice establishes procedures for the selection of release torque values for Alpine ski/boot/binding systems. The recommended release torque is chosen based on skier type, age, and other factors such as adjustments for normal, discretionary, and release/retention settings. Also discussed are methods of selecting skier type, determining skier code, and determining release torque value. Procedures discussed in this practice may be used by ski binding manufacturers in their instructions for installation and use and by ski shops for making adjustments on already mounted ski bindings. However, this practice does not cover nonmechanical bindings or bindings used with boots that reach more than halfway up the lower leg.
