There’s different forces required to release forward vs torsion side to side. A DIN 8 setting is typical for a veteran skier this size. I think that’s 180lbs of force per binding of forward lean so you got a lot to work with.
Depending on the terrain an early ski release can be more dangerous than keeping them on. Skiing is risky but that’s part of the fun!
Afaik the mechanism only triggers when there is momentum on the legs, not when you are pushed into the ski
