sooo i have PE's right now that i'm gonna remount... planning on getting some seths and some rossi scratch wrs fs. for these 3 skis, what's the BEST mounting point to ski 'em switch?150-155 pounds, 5'8". from your expirience, what's the best point to mount 'em? i know PE is close to core center... if i don't get any reposes i'll just mount 'em all at core center. peeps help me out!?
 
If your planning to ski them switch ALL THE TIME then you could mount forward. If I were you though I would mount center just because of the even swing weight.
 
ho ho ho, you sly dog.^^^

noo, but really. haven't you guys ever had a pair of skis that you've mounted at a sweet spot, and it kills everything like no other both regular and switch? cause i know my PE's are right about at core center, maybe just a few cm forwards from that. anyone?
 
Be sure you know your shit before you go to get them mounted too...if you ask to get them mounted at core center so you can ride them switch, you're gonna be super dissapointed.

Core Center= center of the wood (or otherwise) core of the ski, which is never near the center of the ski

True Center= center of the ski i.e. equal tip and tail

that said, I have PE's from 04/05 that I still have mounted up, and they are just ahead of +5....I find them to be perfect for riding switch, with relatively little compromise skiing forward.
