Skier Type:
Type 1 - Cautious skiing at lighter release/retention settings. Skiers who designate themselves "1" must accept a narrower margin of retention in order to gain a wider margin of release.
Type 2 - Average/moderate skiing at average release/retention settings. Skiers who designate themselves "2" must accept a balanced compromise between release and retention.
Type 3 - Aggressive, higher speed skiing at higher release/retention settings. Skers who designate themselves "3" must accept a narrower margin of release in order to gain a wider margin of retention.
Type 3+ - For skiers who desire visual indicator settings higher than settings for a Type 3 skier.
Type -1 (neg. 1) - For skiers who desire visual indicator settings lower than settings for a Type 1 skier. For skiers 38 lbs. and under, Skier Type -1 is inappropriate.
