What capacity tent do you need?  

• How many are in your group? Tents vary in size from 2- to 8-person. 
• Assume a close fit for the number of people your tent is designed to accommodate. If you need more space for dogs and gear, size up. 

Choose the seasonality 

• 3-season tents are great shelters for most of the year. They have ample mesh for good airflow and can withstand basic downpours. 
• 3+- season tents are a little sturdier, and with less mesh, and are warmer than their 3-season cousins. 
• 4-season tents are engineered to handle high winds and other severe weather. This can make them stuffy in warm weather. 

Decide on key features 

• Peak height: Look for a taller peak height if you want to stand up in the tent.  
• Floor length: Can you fully lie down if you’re tall? Will it fit your cot or air mattress? 
• Doors: If multiple people are sleeping in the tent, you might want more than one door for more convenient access. 

Clipless vs. Flat Pedals 

• Clipless: Offers a high level of control while riding fast or technical moves like hopping up onto curbs or over logs. Despite the name, you do clip in and out of them with special cleated shoes.

• Flat (platform): Don’t require clipping in and out, so it's easier to bail in a crash. No special shoes required.

What kind of riding will you be doing? 

• Mountain biking: Flat pedals paired with grippy bike shoes allow easy dismounts; clipless options offer more pedal efficiency, control and power while climbing, and feature 2-hole cleats. 

• Road cycling: Clipless pedals offer the greatest power and efficiency; often feature cleats with a 3-hole design. 

• Recreational riding: Flat pedals or 2-hole cleats make it easier to walk, mount and dismount. 

• Bike commuting: Clipless pedals boost efficiency over long distances; flat pedals let you wear regular shoes instead of cleats. 

Find the right DIN range:

Ski bindings connect your boots to your skis but must also release at the right moment. Release settings are known as DIN, and bindings come with a DIN range.

• Lower DIN: The binding releases with less pressure; ideal for lighter, moderate or cautious skiers.

• Higher DIN: More force is required for the binding to release the boot; ideal for more aggressive, advanced, heavier skiers.

Match your skill level to the binding:

• Beginner to intermediate: Typically a DIN range of 3-10.
• Advanced: DIN range up to 14, 15, or even 16.
• Juniors: Kids' bindings have a much lower DIN range—typically with a high DIN of 7.

Pro tip: Brands often include the upper DIN value in the product name.

Choose the right brake width

Make sure the brake fits the waist width of your skis. The brakes should be equal to or no more than 15mm wider than the ski waist.

Boot compatibility

Most new ski bindings are MNC (multi-norm compatible) and can work with nearly all boot types—GripWalk, Alpine and Walk to Ride.
