Hey, all. Snagged a pair of 2017 185 cm Blends (Joy Division topsheets).

BC line has long worn off the topsheet, and I was wondering if anyone could be kind enough to measure how many cms back from the tip the factory mount line is.

Thanks for the help, all. (Here's a super old NS meme for your troubles).
 
Just measure the center and mount there or 1, 2, 3cm back depending on where you ride? A quick search tells me the recommended mount point is -4cm.
 
That is prolly one of my favorite topsheet ever made. I think recommend for blends is kinda far back, if you ski more all mountain I’d go -2, if u ski a lot of park I’d go -1
 
Owned 3 pairs: '13s, '17s, and '21s ('21 has slightly different sidecut points than the older models). I would recommend -2 or -3 based on your park to all-mountain ratio. If you're solely using them as park/street skis, then -1 or center. Mounted my '13s at -2, '17s at true center, then '21s back to -2, was not a fan of how they skied anything that did not identify as a rail while center mounted.

only do this if u intend on skiing primarily all mountain. If ur gonna be on features at all go -2, that way they're not dead center and still have a little more beef above the toe for all mountain, but theyre balanced for switch riding and park skiing
