Type I skiers:
Ski conservatively, prefer slower speeds, prefer easy & moderate slopes, favor lower than average release-retention settings. This corresponds to an increased risk of inadvertent binding release in order to gain increased release capability in a fall. Type I settings apply to entry level skiers uncertain of their classification.
Type II skiers:
Ski moderately, prefer a variety of speeds, ski on varied terrain, including most difficult trails. All skiers who do not meet the descriptions of either Type I or Type III. Engage in moderate skiing at average release-retention settings.
Type III skiers:
Ski aggressively, normally ski at high speeds, prefer steeper and more challenging terrain, favor higher than average release-retention settings. This corresponds to decreased capability to release in a fall in order to decrease risk of inadvertent binding release. Engage in aggressive skiing at higher release-retention settings.
Ensure your boots and bindings are professionally fitted to prevent discomfort and safety issues on the slopes.
Bethel winters are reliable, but always verify current trail and snow status before your day on the mountain.
Adjust your binding release settings based on your skiing style—consult Great American Ski’s experts for the correct Type I, II, or III classification.
Season-long equipment demand spikes during peak winter months; plan ahead to secure your preferred models.
