Hi all, can some one help me please with binding mount location on ARMADA ARV 106 - 188 cm.

Bindings is Tyrolia ATTACK 13. I am 190cm and 90kg. I ski probably 40% park and 60% all mountain.

Attached a picture of skis

What if mount on -2.5?

I think you'd be fine but why not mount at factory recommended? It should be close to that and its a ski geared towards All Mountain and you'll be skiing more outside of the park.
 
Without having a pair in front of me I think there's two mount locations on the 106 from that year yeah? One's at like -5cm and the other around -2.5cm. If you want a more forward mounted ski to get a more even swing weight and more tail behind ya, go -2.5cm. If you want more tip for better overall float in powder and don't worry as much about swing weight/skiing switch as efficiently, go -5cm.

Just looked it up factory recommended is -2.55 from center so [tag=268238]@MichaelSkier[/tag] mounting them at -2.5 is factory recommended is the same

Yup must've been the year before where they had two mounting lines on the ski. They only did that one year for obvious reasons.
 
factory is best I have devastator 108 I was looking for similar ski and I compared them the armada guy I talk to said ARV is verry close factory for my devastator length 184 is 7.5 cm off center

The skis haven't changed that much, but they've changed where they've been putting the mount point(s). The 16/17 and 17/18 version had the line on -6.5, and then the new version they started putting lines for around -2.5 and around -5. But then they stopped putting the -5 line on some of them. It skis great at both lines, just feels more freestyle-friendly and more directional at the different lines, respectively.
 
Two rec lines, -2.5 and something farther back that doesn't matter.

Mine are drilled at -2.5 and I wouldn't want it any farther back.

Enjoy!
